That's why if KD did come here, the possibility of AD being our guy could shift to being KD being our guy, bc Durant is obviously very talented and the argument could be made who's team this would be. What if KD dropped 33 a game in the 2017 NBA finals and led the pelicans to a championship while AD took a secondary role, and then KD averaged say 26-27 a game in the finals the next season while AD averaged around the same and that was the climax of their careers? I would absolutely love to see that happen I really would. BUT, what if AD had that 1 season (like breezes in 08-09) and single-handedly leads the team to a ring? How could you say that wouldn't be just as satisfying to whereas AD took a secondary role and let KD split the load 50/50?

I'm not sure about you, but I'm a Pelicans fan first and foremost, I'm only an AD fan because he plays for the Pelicans.

The best analogy to this dumb question is the Miami Heat when Lebron joined DWade. It was always Wade's team until Lebron got there. Do you honestly think Miami Heat fans would give up the run they had simply because Lebron carried them rather than Wade?

2 championships are more satisfying than one.

Well this was a good thread to read while drinking coffee on a Monday morning. I've already got a headache.
