Welcome to the Throwback Files, a series where we discuss landmark moments of sport during the past decade.
In our debut episode, Nishant Kulkarni and Mitch Turner discuss the impact of Kevin Durant or 'KD' signing with the Golden State Warriors and how it changed the NBA.
We dig deep to discuss the financial impact on the NBA, why supermax contracts that reward loyal players with $38 million were invented, and how it reshaped the parity in the league.
