    He is humble, on the court he has a bigger competitive spirit now. This seems out of the norm for him though because he knows that he gets double and triple teamed all night. Garcia has a knack of getting into his head whenever they play

    It's 3 against 4. 3 Rockets against Durant + 3 refs. Just this time the 3 refs weren't as one sided as usual.

    Durant has been fake for years. Many people saw through it years ago.

    They would have been able to check him in the 90s, his wimpy frame would have had trouble getting by people who hand checked him and knocked him off balance constantly.

    He should shut the hell up and just play.

    The guy acts like he's too cool for school. His interview with Bill Simmons during All Star weekend was the one of the douchiest interviews I've ever heard from an athlete. Get over yourself, Durant.

    Would still trade half the team for him though!

    I wish they would've asked parsons about KDs comments... I'd expect nothing less than "well KD can't check anybody 1on1, so i don't think he needs to talk to much about D"

    1 - no one can guard him 1-1

    2 - guarding him 3-1 worked.

    Many people were hating on him years ago like all bored sports fans of other cities do to stars of other teams.

    That doesn't make some overweight couch potato an insightful guru on human nature.

    He donated a mil to the red cross after the OKC tornado stuff without saying a word. Only reason people found out is because a person that worked there came out and said it.

    Yeah this clearly was directed at Garcia rather than the Rockets as a team. Garcia was in his ear the entire game.

    Nor can anyone check Harden one on one. What's your point Durant?

    Kevin Durant is the partially literate captain obvious
