If you read his comments from his press conference in Houston, he talked about having 2 years left and wanted to go out playing. IMO it was primarily about playing time which is quite understandable. He has 2 rings w/ SA. He is going to a team that is loaded w/ talent that is aspiring to greatness. He will play a bunch and be looked up to as the guy on the team w/ 2 rings more than the rest of the team combined. I can't say I wouldn't do the same thing.
