Kevin Durant's stunning decision to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder for the already-lethal Golden State Warriors creates a behemoth that will be expected to contend for an NBA title for years to come. Landing Durant, a 27-year-old forward in his prime, bolsters a Warriors team that fell one game short of a repeat title last month after a campaign in which they set an NBA regular-season record with 73 wins and led the league in scoring. While it is too soon to know how Durant will fit in, adding him to a lineup that boasts two-time reigning MVP Stephen Curry, sharpshooter Klay Thompson and defensive stalwart Draymond Green has firmly shifted the balance of power to the Bay Area.
