If you think Oklahoma City Thunder fans have forgiven Kevin Durant for skipping town, you clearly didn’t watch Saturday night’s game.
Durant played his first game in OKC since leaving in free agency last summer to join the Golden State Warriors, and the contest lived up to the hype. The Warriors forward heard loud boos from the Chesapeake Energy Arena crowd, got into it with Russell Westbrook and hit some clutch shots in two-and-a-half hours of must-watch television.
And while Durant got the last laugh in a 130-114 Warriors victory, Thunder fans did not hold back in ripping their former franchise player. Several fans wore T-shirts with cupcakes on them, a reference to Westbrook’s now-infamous “cupcake” Instagram post after Durant left OKC.
Oh, and there were signs. Lots and lots of anti-Durant signs. Here are the best of the bunch:

Those are all pretty solid, but we think this one takes the cake:

The Warriors will be back in Oklahoma City on March 20, so Thunder fans have plenty of time to think of more creative signs bashing Durant.
