Congratulations to Kevin Durant for his first ring and being named MVP of the NBA finals. Already, people are jumping on the man for going to Golden State to win a title which was the same team that beat him last year. The saying "If you can't beat them, join them" applies. LeBron James did the same thing when he first left Cleveland for Miami, then he came back to Cleveland and brought the city a title. How is Durant any different than LeBron in that aspect? HE'S NOT. The reason why Durant didn't get the level of flak LeBron did is because he was silent about his move to Golden State. No media attention, nothing; he left. Some sports fans should cut the crap and realize that every player wants to win a championship, and if it means going to another team, so be it. KD has been in the league 10 years and has been with OKC from Day 1. When Westbrook was having bad games, Durant was the one to step up since there was no help (outside of Westbrook). KD knew if he stayed in Oklahoma City, he would end his career ringless, and he couldn't go out like that. Kevin Durant made the right move, it resulted in a ring, and for that I salute him.
Moral Of The Story: If you're not generating a harvest where you're at, maybe you need to plant your seed elsewhere. That's what Kevin Durant did and look what it got him, a championship.
