Going to the Warriors brings up the too many superstars on one team dilemma. Some may laugh at this but it's true. Sometimes these guys who have tremendous egos don't know to split up the star time. Curry and Thompson are used to taking the big shots......how will they react to KD coming in and wanting some of that?
I think this is the RARE case where that won't be a problem. Just by watching the finald last year, Curry doesn't seem to care about who the man is so long as they're winning. He was content with Draymond getting the MVP as he set him up for wide open looks all series long. Also besides that, GS has a system in which they move the ball, so that(KIND OF) discourages the element of someone wanting to go iso

True. Word is though that KD doesn't want to go through this FA stuff again. However, it would be kind of foolish (financially and from a basketball perspective) for him to sign long term with OKC right now because he doesn't know what Weatbrook is going to do. It also doesn't make much sense for him to sign long term anywhere right now when he can make so much more next year.

Things may change some with the teams that were on his short list and another option or 2 may appear, but by interviewing teams with next year in mind, he streamlines the process for next year and can make his decision much faster.

He can't sign long term in OKC. In fact, the reason Horford never seriously considered OKC was because of the lack of long term commitment from Durant and Westbrook.
