KD went out of his way to not do anything like this when he left. And yet people wondered why there was vitriol when he returned. https://t.co/ZyK4GsdgqT

Kevin has been in the Bay for less than 12 months, he was in OKC for 8 years. OKC is still waiting for their full page thank you. https://t.co/SO3vGXr25E

The pain for the organization and its fans are never-ceasing, even nearly a full year since his departure, with even local sportswriters resenting his move to the Bay Area and the rewards he's reaped from it thus far.
