Yes, that was exactly what happened. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Murray is a combo guard, right? (he can play as PG and SG)
Yes, that's correct.
But lately, he had been mostly a shooting guard although he can still handle the ball and make the play which had been Barton's job recently.
Now Durant.
Damn, this is really a bad year for NBA.
Stars are falling down and not twinkling anymore.

Perhaps the management should think of a better way to stretch the rest period of these players.
They made the game softer and now they are exhausting their players to make more money. I know they are trying to meet a deadline but if for the expense of losing more players then is it worth it?
