Durant would have made the finals at least once in 17, 18, or this year if he stayed on OKC.

I mean, the dude was ONE game away and the Warriors would have faltered at some point (most likely this year) if he never joined.

Well, he wanted the hardest road and he got it. He gets to try to win rings with Curry and Klay and Dray. He was under immense pressure to win. It ain't easy breaking up a 73 win team and taking the mantle.

Plus, I doubt OKC gets PG. Would have still had a good lineup, KD, Russ, Oladipo, Adams, Horford, Roberson.

It's clear that OKC would NOT have gotten PG, but KD is a better SF anyways. AND, OKC definitely had a high chance of getting Horford as well.

Durant always had a pretty stacked team in OKC and they would have reloaded as well. Dude should have never left.

They would've made the Finals in 2016 if he didn't choke in Game 6
