For many people, losing Kevin Durant this offseason meant the dynasty was over. There is no doubt that losing an MVP-caliber player will hurt the Golden State Warriors, but there are some ways they can reduce the impact of his loss.
Durant was a back-to-back Nba Finals MVP for the Warriors and gave them so much offensive dominance when they needed it most.
Against the switching defense of the Houston Rockets, Durant would consistently find himself in the post against a smaller player. Against the Cleveland Cavaliers, he would often be a go-to isolation scorer in crunch time.
