A consensus seems to be building that Durant will re-sign a 1 year max deal with an additional year player option with the Thunder. Then, after next season, Westbrook (a free agent in 2017) and Durant can either decide to stay in OKC; go as a package somewhere else (Lakers expected to be involved); or go their separate ways. Obviously a lot of basketball yet to be played, but if Thunder win a title by beating the Spurs, Warriors and Cavs, they are going to stay together to seek to repeat.
The Thunder's dominance sheds some light on the Spurs/Thunder series -- rather than SA being old and OKC is just unbeatable right now. The Thunder have now won an unthinkable 6 of the last 7 against the Spurs and Warriors in the last two weeks (those two went 140-24 in the regular season), and many of the Thunder's wins have not been close. OKC is a monster right now. Looking more and more like only an injury can stop them.
