I expected he would stay one more year with OKC but he chose to sign with the team that had just beaten him in this year's conference finals. There's a hilarious video of an OKC fan who is really, really mad about Durant's leaving the team:

And the crowd goes mild.
Burma!
A "soccer kid" from Turkey was the one to start this thread?!

Why not?! NBA has fans all over the world. And this "soccer kid" also likes basketball too!

Breja: Burma!
Why did you say Burma?
That's gonna be one scary awesome team, but I don't see how they can pay all those guys.

I panicked!

I didn;t understand a word of this thread, but it sounded scarry.

Here's an analysis of how they can pay those guys (next year will be much more difficult):

I'd rather talk about baseball but I guess this will do.
Dick Laurent is dead...
I'm sorry but this is really what came to mind when reading "Kevin Durant". It doesn't even rhyme that well, Laurent and Durant.
But I know shit about sports.
And a lot about Lynch.

+1 for the David Lynch connection in a basketball thread! :)

You can mix it up with basketball! We have already Lynchian connections and scared "Burma!" exclamations, so I don't think it would be inappropriate :)

Yes, I later learned that it's Monty Python reference! :)

Just struck me as funny, that's all. :) I don't actually even recall any previous basketball threads/discussions. I'm sure there've been some, but most of the (very little) sports talk around these parts seems to be about soccer (naturally), American football, hockey...maybe baseball...racing, once in a while...the Olympics, probably...and that's about it.
Also, according to my calculations, at least 66.6666% of mentions of sports (the "American" ones, at least) in this forum were by tinyE. :P
