Maybe in a way, although KD didn't have near the leverage, nor did he try to...
...actively set the table the way LeBron did.
Golden State just mainly got lucky w/ cap room, and Durant had team chemistry issues in OKC, so it worked out for both. There were very few other decent teams who could either afford or fit Durant under their cap, and Durant wanted to get away from Westbrook.
Plus, LeBron had spewed how he would always be loyal to Cleveland, and then had "The Decision," the "not one, not two..." comments.
Granted, I'm a lifelong Warriors fan, but it felt very different to me.
