I'm glad to see him not pick the team that would give him max bucks.
I'm disappointed but not surprised to see him pick the team with the easiest path to a title.
That doesn't make him a bad guy and he's been in near miss zone for a while, so it's understandable.
But if and when he wins in GS, there will always be the "yeah, but he did it on a team that was already a championship caliber team," reaction. When you have the ring, maybe that doesn't matter. But it's a little surprising that Durant wasn't leery of that.
