James became a good guy, but there were always bad guys in the league-Durant defected to the Warriors in the summer of 16. Compared with James, Durant's story is really much worse:
First, Durant's team just defeated itself in the last playoff; And Durant once led the team with 3: 1; James joined the Heat and didn't beat himself in the playoffs.
Second, when James left the Cavaliers, he didn't care too much. He even said that he took away his good brother Big Z; When Durant left Thunder, he was surrounded by teammates like Shao Wei, but Shao Wei chose to stay.
Under such circumstances, Durant will undoubtedly suffer more than James, in addition to the criticism of fans, the decline of the status of the new team, and the ridicule and hatred of the old team's old comrades.
If we understand it from these angles, we can clearly understand why Durant is called "the strongest traitor in history". Of course, I have to say that Durant's choice is not wrong, and his choice has also brought him the championship and finals mvp. Therefore, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Since Durant made a choice, he never regretted it. Moreover, he just made his own choice from his own point of view.
