I'm mixed on that idea. Its hard to believe after all the flack he's gotten for joining the Warriors, that he'd want to go join the Lebron in LA where he'd probably keep getting flack for joining up with the other top player in the league on a team stacked with young up and coming talent. Why make a move at all if he's going to go there? Not to mention, Lebron is the guy he's been chasing in terms of legacy for this generation. KD thinks he should be seen as on the same level as Lebron, why go join him? Unless he thinks people seeing them on the same team and seeing how KD would be the man in crunch time, especially as Lebron slows down, would make them change their opinions. I do think LA would be a huge appeal to KD, so there's that. All things considered, wouldn't be too surprised if he makes that choice.
People have talked about the Knicks, and the Knicks could sign him to a max next year, but then what support does he have there? Seems like Porzingis hasn't played in ages, Hardaway is an overpaid volume scorer (as much as I was a fan of his pops), so Durant would have to be crossing his fingers that some of the other young guys turn into something. Maybe it wouldn't be too difficult to dump some of those 1 year deals they have remaining to try to sign Irving too or whoever. If they can do that I think the Knicks would have a legit shot.
So Knicks, Lakers, or Warriors? Jerry West and the Clippers will try to lure him too but they've gotta be a distant fourth. I don't know who else would have a chance if any.
If he really wants to cement his legacy I think he should just stay, maybe some bias in that thought. But hopefully they'll have a chance to do something nobody else has done in the modern era.. win more than 3 in a row.
He says he wants the money next year, I think the Warriors will be able to offer him the most? But if they actually go all out and offer both Klay and KD the biggest deals they can next year? Wow. They may do it too with the move across the Bay happening next year. Keeping the team together ensures they can charge whatever crazy prices they want for the new seats while keeping the top seat as the league's #1 attraction. If KD goes to the Lakers that changes, no doubt.
