NBA schedule markers are evil geniuses, but they may have reached a new height this time. Durant could've been the greatest player in Thunder history, and the fans will always criticize him for his decision to leave the franchise to join the Golden State Warriors,

Already dealing with the NBA fanning flames, Kevin Durant dumped gallons of gasoline. The Oklahoma City Thunder 's Opening Night ring ceremony received an extra kick to it. They will host the Houston Rockets, which means the future Hall-of-Famer's attendance will make it even sweeter.

The contract situation could be a bit of an issue, but according to a recent report from NBC Sports, it doesn't sound like it will be. According to NBC, some believe that Durant could take a two-year, $100 million deal, which would be below the max he can take, but still a decent contract.
