    ESPN’s Chris Broussard breaks down Kevin Durant’s decision to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder and head to the Bay Area to join the Golden State Warriors.

    “Jerry West talked to him about, ‘You will be viewed as more than a great scorer. If you come here with other great scorers and win championships, people will notice your rebounding; people will notice your defense,’ ” Broussard explained.
