2700958, Is it just me?

Warriors retiring Durant's number seems kinda goofy.


They aren't some brand new franchise with nothing to hang it's hat on, they been around, been had legends wear their jerseys.

But beyond even that, they had the best season of all time and won a title without him off the same core that was there when he came. He DEFINITELY helped turn a great team into a dynasty but he was in and out of that door pretty fast.

I'm glad both sides are parting with positive feelings and mutual appreciation. That is to be lauded. I just think it's kinda suspect, especially so fast. I don't want the Bulls retiring Rodman's number NOW, let alone the day after he left.

If it was Klay or Dray, I could see it. Founding members. If they leave you don't worry about where they are going or why they left, you just hoist the jersey. But Durant basically dropped a dope album on the label and kept it moving, so it seems a little fast to start building statues.

No agenda. I like GS, for the most part.
