The saga of the Based God and Kevin Durant curse seems to be over. Lil B is now extending his gratitude for a player that was cursed for so long and saw plenty of losses along the way. None came worse than last season’s Western Conference Finals when the Oklahoma City Thunder lost a 3-1 series lead to the Golden State Warriors en route to the NBA Finals.
But now that KD is part of Dub Nation, Lil B is happy for the team and has only good things to say about one of the league’s best players. In a letter published by The Undefeated, the rapper shared his sentiments on the new Warriors with Durant on it.
Read some excerpts below.
I still don’t think it really has set in, but Kevin Durant to the Golden State Warriors felt very natural — what it was supposed to be. It felt so right.
The Based God always works in very different ways. Me being Lil B, I don’t want to say it was super unexpected, but it was amazing. The Based God understood. I know The Based God definitely knew and had it foreseen.
The curse had to be removed for the simple fact that Kevin Durant has shown his humility by coming to the Warriors. Me being Lil B, I really feel like The Based God did it because The Based God is humble and very empathetic. Just from what I’ve seen, Kevin Durant has shown that he wants change.
I was always just protecting The Based God. The Based God said the curse is over, so the curse is officially over. As for a sorry, I don’t need one. I think Kevin Durant has shown where his heart is. And his heart is in the Bay Area.
No predictions right now from The Based God on how many championships the Warriors will win, but I don’t know about any other starting lineup that could potentially have more offensive firepower than these guys. This is going to be a really exciting season.
Welcome home, KD. Welcome home. Keep going, my brother. Stay positive. We love you in the Bay. We’re excited to see you play. Definitely look out for me courtside. — Lil B
