yeah, I didn't leave out the planned move by accident, and I definately wasn't overlooking it. I briefly referred to it, assuming people who read a sports article about durant/seattle already know about that. and for the most part, that is a justified assumption.

and you're right, putting all the blame on durant isn't fair, but that's not completely what I'm doing. I did address poor coaching/management decisions (ridnour, wally), which adds to my point that this team isn't trying it's hardest to put a winning team on the floor. Luke Ridnour can play, and he isn't and hasn't been given a fair shake. playing earl watson ahead of him is a joke, as well as delonte west.

and whether or not the coaches are giving durant the green light is besides the point. he just isn't shooting well, nor taking great shots, to justifiy shooting that much. but like I said, this team isn't doing what needs to be done to win. they have several low-post options that they could use every game that they ignore, and that hurts them.

thanks for the constructive criticism, though. in future articles I will be sure to address all the core issues. I was simply making a case for another "lebron hype" situation. the media is putting a lot of weight on this kid's shoulders, and he isn't even 20 yet.
