I used to be a big fan of the NBA until Kevin Durant joined the Golden State Warriors.
I would be a basketball player, play at Duke, go to the Golden State Warriors, play with Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Draymond Green.
The Warriors, when Kevin Durant came, they played more iso ball than the year before. Kevin Durant made them change who they were because of his talent.
The Warriors getting Kevin Durant, yes you won championships, which I guess is all that matters, I think at the end, and I'm just saying this as someone from the outside, it almost looks like it diminishes everything that was accomplished before him. It takes the allure of the Warriors away.
I know I'm one of the biggest busts in NBA history, and I know it will only get worse as Kevin Durant continues doing big things.
Kevin Durant, to me in my personal opinion, is the best player in the NBA.
I watched a lot of Scottie Pippen, Magic Johnson, Kevin Durant, and a lot of Paul Pierce. I used to watch Tracy McGrady as well along with Kevin Garnett.
It was a good opportunity for me to wear a NBA jersey. The Golden State Warriors gave me an opportunity to come in and play for them. I was very appreciative of that.
Every team I play, I'm playing them like we playing the Golden State when they had Kevin Durant. Every point guard I play, I'm playing Steph Curry. Every shooting guard I'm playing, I'm playing James Harden. Every three-man I'm playing, I'm playing LeBron and KD.
You don't have to be built like Karl Malone to be strong. There are thinner guys who are really strong. Kevin Durant, who I used to work with, has real strength to his body.
I don't need any accolades. I don't like being famous. But I can always tell people I used to defend guys like Kevin Durant, and they respect my defense.
When I think about my MVP season, I will also think about the loss to Golden State. But winning the award as Most Valuable Player of the NBA is just a huge honour. I didn't really realise how big it was until Mark Cuban had tears in his eyes at the award ceremony.

Of course I've been compared to Kevin Durant.
Guarding Kevin Durant - that's fun for me.
I would love to play with Kevin Durant.
I think Kevin Durant being that humble is huge.
