Like many NBA stars of the modern era, when it wasn’t working out for Kevin Durant with the Oklahoma City Thunder, he jumped ship to the “super team” Golden State Warriors in the summer of 2016. With Durant in the fold, they would win two of the next three titles (2017, 2018).
Monday on First Take saw Charles Barkley discussing this period of Durant’s career. After Stephen A. Smith asked the NBA analyst whether he would equate Durant joining the Warriors with LeBron James’ famous “Big Three” stint with the Miami Heat, Barkley didn’t mince his words.
