wouldnt be surpised he agrees to the vet minimum to keep ring chasing lol


http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/23109223/kevin-durant-golden-state-warriors-plans-decline-player-option-restructure-deal

Option A: He can sign a two-year deal with a 2019-20 player option in which the first-year earnings would be $30 million and the option year worth $31.5 million. The only benefit in signing this contract is that the salary cap is expected to jump from $101 million (2018-19) to $108 million (2019-20). Durant could then opt out after the 2018-19 season and sign a five-year, $219 million contract. It would be the largest deal in NBA history if San Antonio forward Kawhi Leonard doesn't sign a super max this summer.

Nonetheless, the Warriors' luxury tax bill in 2019 would be astronomical. Durant's five-year income breakdown would be $37.8 million, $40.8 million, $43.8 million, $46.8 million and $49.9 million.

Option B: He can sign a four-year max contract valued at around $158 million. His annual pay would be $35.3 million, $38.2 million, $41 million and $43.8 million.

Option C: He can agree to a three-year deal with a player option after the second season. His income would go from $35.3 million to $38.2 million, and the option year would be $41 million. The salary cap in 2020-21 is expected to be approximately $112 million. Or, in this scenario, Durant could opt out and sign a five-year, $228 million contract with a starting salary of $39.4 million -- the same contract Anthony Davis is eligible to sign with New Orleans in 2019.

Yet until this post there's been utter silence. I know people here love KD and give him a pass for transgressions that other stars would be lambasted for - but it's really not a good look for his leadership competencies.

good to see you finally acknowledge that.

The last time KD played ball that really mattered, he put up 35, 8, and 5 per game on 56/47/93 shooting percentages.

It would've been more of a shock if hadn't (there was some fleeting talk that he wouldn't, but no one believed it).

But yeah, he's staying. He'll sign another two-year deal, opt out again after next season, and then sign his supermax deal.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Talking about he needs more help. Help his ass to a new team to chase another ring. Nigga joined a superteam talking about he needs more help.

KD should mess up the league by ring chasing. Go sign a one year deal with a team on the cusp and get the ring only to repeat the process on some MyPlayer mode shit. Follow the Blount example and ring chase efficiently.
