Durant on Rockets: "It's a fun brand of basketball. They really gave us a challenge." Durant told Harden at end of the game 'I'm proud of him.' "They're building something special here in Houston." Durant, with a smile: "I was starting to hate those guys. I was starting to hate everyone on those games on the series. I'm sure they felt the same way about us. You really appreciate the effort they bring." Durant on Rockets: "You respect them. That's healthy for the game of basketball. They play the game right way.They remind me of us from a few years back. They are going to be a force to be reckoned with for years to come." Great season, and a great base. I'm looking forward to see Morey build on it it the offseason. https://twitter.com/Nick_Mathews
Durant is a great superstar. don't really believe there's any hate since his buddy is our star player.
Like I've posted already this team is so much like the Thunder team that gave the Lakers a run 3 seasons ago
Never at any point hated KD, over the course of a competitive 7 game series things always get testy. He's as easy to root for as any star you will see. Fisher is still a D-bag though.
Same thing I keep telling people. We need just one more special player and we are going to be a force in the next few years as long as we avoid injuries. Parsons really showed me that he is part of our long term plan along with Harden. The homer in me wants Asik to stay, I really love that guy and really feel he is going to improve a little more, however, I know if we get Howard, he will definitely be out the door .
I don't even hate Durant. I hate the calls he gets...and honestly I hope Memphis wins because I hate ******* Perkins and that ***** *** Fisher. If those two ******* weren't on the Thunder I could wish for Durant to do something special and lead his team to the finals.
Wouldn't that be nice. Hey Chris Paul, I'm NBA superstar Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder. We may not be able to pay you anything but the Rockets can and boy can they play.
Watching him operate with the rest of the team hitting their shots was a thing of terrible beauty. As much as I hated it. Tonight he looked effortless many times. Instincts are off the charts.
**** durant. He can kiss my ass and take his fake **** to Baltimore. Big ass phoney. If you want to cheer for durant, you're no better than a beaten up wife because he's going to keep kicking you, and you still take and love it.
Can't hate this guy. He leaves it all on the court. Its playoff basketball and intensities rise and your in the moment. If everyone were in his position, they'd act the same way. I know I would because myself and most people have that competitive fire in them.
The winner is always going to say nice things about the team they just beat, doesn't change my opinion of Durant. Not that I hated him but hearing these nice comments is expected after a series win, they are happy to be moving forward, they gain nothing from bashing us.
I lost some respect for Durant for his in-game antics this game, he acted like a punk at times. I have very little respect for most other members of the Thunder as well(none for Perkins whatsoever) but I do agree with what Durant says, our future is bright and were gonna battle this team in the near future(maybe next year's WCF )
