Do you still remember today nine years ago? The NBA was in a panic!

The free market door has just opened, and Kevin Durant, who just ended the Thunder contract, the super scorer who made the whole league salivate, made a decision that shocked the entire basketball world - he announced his joining the Golden State Warriors!

Thinking about the scene at that time, it is definitely a "earthquake magnitude". The powerful men such as the Spurs, the Clippers, and the Celtics all thought they had the opportunity to invite this "God of Death" home, but KD made a decision after meeting with the Warriors. What contract was signed? A shrewd "1+1" - 54.3 million yuan in 2 years, and the second year player option. This operation not only gives you the opportunity to quickly integrate, but also leaves enough flexibility in future operations. We all know the story later. KD's three years with the Warriors were simply a "combination made by heaven". "Cosmic Brave" directly upgraded to "full cosmic Brave" and directly ruled the alliance! With two golden championship trophys in 2017 and 2018, KD won the FMVP for no surprise! What is dominance? That's it!

data speaking? Let's talk about the hardcore:

Three-year regular season: 208 games, averaging 25.8 points + 7.1 rebounds + 5.4 assists per game. How can this be used to hold on to the thigh? This is a gold edge on the thigh and directly upgraded to Optimus Prime!

Three-year playoffs: 48 life-and-death games, averaging terrifying 29.6 points + 7.1 rebounds + 4.5 assists per game! Especially at the critical moment of the finals, the "Death Scythe" that was pulled by defense became a nightmare for many opponents? It's really just "give the ball to KD and solve the problem."

Do you think this decision is worth it? Judging from the number of champion rings and FMVPs, it is absolutely worth it. KD is like a fish in the Warriors system, pushing his offensive talent and efficiency to the extreme. But this matter has never stopped controversy. Some say it is the "most difficult road", while others say it is the "model of a strong alliance". In any case, KD's joining the Warriors in 2016 is definitely one of the most topical player transfers in NBA history that has completely changed the league structure. It has created a dynasty and has been forever engraved in the NBA's chronicle. It has been nine years since I looked back at that decision and I can still feel the shock.
