Signed 2 big endorsements with companies based in OKC, specifically Orange Tree and most recently Sonic.

It's really a shame how much being in a small market has hurt his branding ability.

It's a shame he's so unhappy in Oklahoma City.

And y'all have like 20 national TV games? The only way he leaves is to go "home"to DC. The idea that the Knicks or Lakers can just lure him away because of their large markets.

Yup. Like Under Armour which is based in his home state of Maryland.

Oh wait...

If he goes to DC he won't lack for endorsements and will be in a better city

Yeah he's definitely lacking now. Especially for some exposure.

Hope he makes the move. For his sake.

I'm not saying that he's lacking in OKC, I'm staying that he'd have equal or better opportunities in DC and would have the benefit of being "home" (and in a better city) with similar talent.

The issue has never been about lack of exposure/endorsements.

C'mon man, if you're a multi-millionaire like KD, would you rather live in LA/DC (hometown) or Oklahoma?

Not really. The West is still skull dragging them. OKC is the only team in the West with a losing record to the East.

Gortat
Nene
Durant
Beal
Wall

Would be a close game vs

Adams
Ibaka
Durant
Jackson
Westbrook

Also, the east is much easier than the west.
