...why exactly does Durant want to play with him?

Horford is a fundamentals guy, plays the right way. So is Durant, and he wants to win. He doesn't care about being in ESPN as long as his team wins. You can have all the highlight dunks you want, but it doesn't win games at the end of the day.

Westbrook is a fun player, but he takes some really bad shots, could some of those have lost them games?

Plus you need a good inside out guy now, need some one to dumb it into to get a easy bucket, or to draw the D and kick it out for and outside shot. Or to pull the other teams bigs out so you can work in the paint.

Yeah he's not going to wow you with high flying dunks, but he'll be a good teammate.

I think just about anyone would like playing with Horford.  A good and willing passer, plays strong defense, hits the open shot when you pass it out to him.

Just out of curiosity, was it ever leaked that Horford was on Durant's list of players or did we just assume? The only place I see mention of needing to land Horford to get Durant is on this board

Quick question here... are we sure that Durant is high on playing with Horford? I mean, is there a solid source that mentions they want to play together?

All I've seen at this point are pure conjectures.

no way DA will give a 30 year old above average player max money over 5 years

Wouldn't it be for only 4 years?

Horford is worth the max.

.....so he'll fit well in BOS.

No drama....no mischeviousness....not high-maintenance.

I believe he has a lot of game left in him and I'd love him in BOS.
