Kevin Durant talks Devin Booker’s Ejection vs Pistons, Postgame Interview

As long as you’ve been in the league you probably seen some wild nights but between St Dr between de that quickly how do you up like you guys com yeah keep the game first I mean it’s a lot of noise around our game there a lot of that

Comes with being an NBA player you keep the main thing the main thing um and all of that stuff have fade away it’s unfortunate what happened before the game um it’s supposed to be a Brotherhood um but I also understand dudes get into stuff and stuff may

Happen but you know we try to avoid that in this league but happens and hopefully we can move on from it and um we all support Drew and got Drew’s back and you know he’ll move past it curious with just with Deon and I know obviously

Only guy that talks to I everyone does but did that even surprise you that he got that yeah it did it did cuz he was talking to me and U and I guess he said something that tick the ref off but they were on edge before the game anyway because of

The situation they didn’t want things to escalate they they thought it might escalate with our team and theirs but that’s not even type of team we are we just try to go out there and talk with our game and um you seen it early on they was trying to just

You know let us know that they going to control the game and I can understand it I can see it from their perspective but I just think that was too quick of a tech both of theml yeah well just body language I mean it wasn’t of no ill intent what

They were trying to do I mean they were trying to make sure that nothing goes farther beyond what happened before the game and I can understand that part of it and so sometimes with that being said you might get some quick text but I I thought those two were way quicker than

Normal kin when you look at just where you guys are right now um heading into the break what what what things are you happy with and what things you feel like there still to grow yeah I like the our togetherness is grown you know being more of a

Unit um guys understanding their roles and what they bring to the team I think around this time when you start to figure that out that’s always good I like I our record is being 11 games over 500 uh so that’s a good that’s a good Milestone to have going to the break and

For the most part everybody’s healthy you know so uh Brad got a couple tweaks and hopefully he can get back right after Allstar Break um but I like how consistently we played games together the last month or so and that’s only on B where for for us going

Forward this is actually book’s only second time being selected to the allar game out I was curious since you’ve been to so many allar games how much more enjoyable is it when you have a teammate that you get to it’s the best it’s the best I mean this is an incredible experience we

All thought about being all stars as kids and to experience that um and to be expected to be an Allstar every year I mean that’s that’s who we wanted to be as kids so you know it’s a moment for the basketball world to celebrate the all stars but it’s also a

Moment for each each family member each each friend that you got comeing to really uh celebrate what you’ve done thus far in your career and this and thus far the season so it’s it’s always a family type atmosphere when you go to Allstar and that’s the best part about

It the commissioner said today that you felt like the players even agreed that maybe there needs to be some more competitiveness and I know you didn’t play in it last year but do you feel like guys are maybe wanting to to bring more of an actual game into that this

Weekend yeah I think I uh I think they just went back it’s not the they didn’t go back to the same format as far as the points is concerned right it’s regular game right I yeah I mean I I think that’ll help I mean it was a couple

Gimmicks involved the last few years with the choosing the players right before the game and the the draft and all that so I like it being East and West uh I like it being traditional and guys go out there and just play their game I think I think when starter set

The tone once the ball is tipped I think that’ll set the tone for the rest of the game and U there’s a lot of competitors in that game so I’m looking forward to it it’s always great we can get um guys on the bench more reps um when book went

Out and Brad not playing as the next man mentality so guys had to step up and do a little bit more love was sa been brought to the table tonight uh love with Royce brought to the table J D Rod B um too I feel like everybody on the

Bench came in and contributed and and and did something positive for the team so as much as we can build in-game confidence like that the better we’ll become you’ve been very successful on the court but off the court recently in your Venture with boardroom and Rich clim you were recently given the Honor

By Bill board as being one of the most successful impressive Executives and athletes in the industry your impressions on your success wow I mean so many people had a hand in on it um you know having a team behind you that can put you in position to be successful

Off the floor give the knowledge that you need to be successful off the floor is the most important thing so I’m just grateful for the people that are around that let me focus on the main thing which is crafting my game and getting better at my game and understand that

Feeds into all the stuff that we doing off the floor so without without what we do here on this court none of that stuff can work and I think as as a group we understand that so it’s pretty cool to see the progress drops Nike I’m from the ground up you

Know um as I got older I’ve got more uh in depth with you know the drops and the colorways and the details of the shoes you know that’s that’s become more fun as I gotten older so um this one we dropping tomorrow is a you know they

Came out probably 12 13 years ago so it’s a lot of nostalgia around this shoe so I’m glad we was able to get that back to the fans and hopefully they enjoy it man they bothering me about those for four or five years and uh it’s a limited

Pair so I know you’re going to hit me up even even more about them so um but we got so much stuff coming out it’s just grateful I can partner with a one of the best best companies ever in nikee those will be on Sunday uh I don’t know yet

Back to the allar game which you played mostely West of your entire from most of your career yeah and you still talk about the competitiveness of getting back to the allar game instead of G couple years picking players is there sense of Pride playing back in the west TR to get

That I mean I got Pride for the back my name the name on the back of my jersey when I’m on that stage and in the city that I’m playing for my teammates I want to go out there and represent them um as much as I can
