Everybody has been sitting at the edge of their seat about Kevin Durant's "decision" like they're awaiting the words "And the winner is..." This has caused many people to become sudden faux experts with their predictions about where KD will be suiting up come October for the 2016-2017 season tip-off.

While Durant has been flying from coast to coast and meeting with all the teams on his list, world-renowned NBA gambler Haralabos Voulgaris tweeted his prediction that had many on Twitter following suit thinking that KD will be taking his talents to Oakland and join Dub Nation.

There are plenty of people who think the same, but some believe there is no way that the Warriors have a shot at signing the 2014 NBA MVP.

Even Patriots receiver Julian Edelman is trying to convince KD to join any other team but the Warriors.

 

People are speculating that Durant wants to stay in the West to play for a championship contender, and reports are swirling around the league that NBA icon and Warriors exec Jerry West (a.k.a. "The Logo") gave KD a pitch he couldn't refuse reportedly over a phone conversation on Saturday. ESPN reports from their sources that West said Durant's game was being overlooked at OKC and if "he goes to a team with other great scorers and wins championships, the other parts of his game will receive recognition, and he'll be known as a great all-around player rather than just a great scorer."

Here's more details from that report:

Well, Durant could refuse Mr. West if he wants to, but this is the same man who signed Shaquille O'Neal, and said he only needed 10 minutes to see Kobe Bryant play and decide he wanted to draft him out of high school. It's hard to shy away from a guy who knows how to build dynasties.

Anyway, here are some reactions and predictions that KD is going to sign with the Warriors, and not re-signing with the Thunder.
