Late Wednesday night, when an ESPN report surfaced that LeBron James would consider meeting with the Warriors if a max salary was available, Kevin Durant had a simple reaction. "Bullsh—," Durant said of his response. "Bullsh—." After practice Thursday, several Golden State players poked fun at the notion of James — the unquestioned leader of the team that has faced the Warriors in the past three NBA Finals — joining them. The financials alone would make such a development tricky, at best. The Warriors, who have roughly a league-high $135 million tied up in payroll, would probably need to orchestrate a sign-and-trade to land James.
