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.

Gunnar Peterson

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.

Jared Dudley

The key to guarding Kevin Durant is to play really good team defense. One on one, it's just tough. So you try to get all five guys to play against him.

Danilo Gallinari

When I'm going against guys like Kevin Durant - one of the best leading scorers in the league - it pushes you to want to get better, seeing how hard he works.

John Wall

When Israelis in the occupied territories now claim that they have to defend themselves, they are defending themselves in the sense that any military occupier has to defend itself against the population they are crushing. You can't defend yourself when you're militarily occupying someone else's land. That's not defense. Call it what you like, it's not defense.

Noam Chomsky

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.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

That's my main thing: I want to be on the level those guys [Derrick Rose,Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant] are on.

John Wall

I know guys look at me for advice. I reach out to Kevin Durant or Wesley Matthews, DeMarcus Cousins... the guys who have been through it, and I just get confident more and more every day.

Rodney Hood

I like Kevin Durant's game! Ain't nothing he can't do. Shoot. Has a handle. Plays D. Scores at will.

Andrew Wiggins

I used to be a big fan of the NBA until Kevin Durant joined the Golden State Warriors.

Joey Votto

I think Kevin Durant being that humble is huge.

Frances Tiafoe

I need to find people who I respect so I can respect them, and they'll like being respected so they'll respect me, and that's like a marriage.

Judd Apatow

I defend just like my brother Todd lived. He taught me how to play defense by the way he lived his life. I defend like every game is my last game, like anything can be taken away at any moment, and that's what my brother taught me. That's what he always preached to me, so that's how I believe the game should be played.

Marcus Smart

I like to watch a lot of Kevin Durant, Brandon Ingram and Giannis Antetokounmpo - those tall lanky wings that can handle the ball and shoot it.

Kevin Knox

I was always told to avoid being famous just for being famous. That's something that has always stuck in my mind. I like to work. It helps if you like what you do.
