While I would not say "Shifty", it was clear they did not want to answer the question and went distant for a second. Im going to guess its been scripted that they won't talk about it and others as iggy did speak up and take it. I thought it was handled great by Iggy and Livingston.
This is a tough thing to be in battle as brothers and knowing its likely the last ride without Durant. Dray is an emotional driven player and I can see why it got to him. Dray, Klay and Steph own it from the beginning. Durant came in but perhaps never thought he'd finish his career there. I think the league has caught up with them without Boogie and Durant from the 73 win team. Bogut was a different player then. ITs a special group and time of their lives. Im sure in time they will relish the moment even more. |

Sorry I don't have the quote source but read in last 24 hours Durant saying how he likes the bay area because he can kind of disappear into the crowd a bit. Its a big city. Taken in context the tone was (If you read it) was not foreshadowing he was leaving but that he it would be disrespectful to his team to discuss any of plans if he had any but that he has really enjoyed living there. Seemed it could be postmortem. The rumors to taint anything he says. Its not fair really, but it is what it is. Disappearing into a big city environment. Hmmmmm, wonder what he could mean by that??? |

How times change! |

LA or Manhattan are the only places packed with other celebs for athlete as KD to "disappear". "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." Hamlet

is anybody paying attention to how needy and in denial the warriors seem about this durant situation. i was listening to this guy from the athletic who covers the warriors on cowherd's show today, and every reason he gave for kd staying had almost nothing to do with basketball. they both wondered why durant would leave when there are such great players there not even paying attention to the chemistry issues all season. the new arena was brought up, and cowherd mentioned that the owner was going to hook him up with all these billionaires that nobody's heard of. everything seemed so over the top. the impression i get is that the warriors know they won't be an automatic title contender without durant, and people are putting out these things hoping kd stays to make the franchise look good.
i understand how good the warriors are on the court, but durant staying there would be tough to take because the warriors seem like the 1% percent of basketball. i don't know if i could deal with their arrogance if he re-signed there. |

I also think klay is having 2nd thoughts..that would leave curry and green, ES
