“If you’re going to do that for Michael, you should do the same for the rest of those guys. Whatever happens, happens. I just don’t think guys like Russell and Robertson and Chamberlain should be forgotten.â€

Come on. I haven’t made a single Kanye joke all year. I waited for the meme to pass. I get one. This find from Royce is one of those things I didn’t see coming. I’m just used to Durant being young and sheepish and really talented, but not necessarily thought-provoking, even in terms of NBA guys. So this was kind of a wake-up call. Durant is here, he’s winning, and he’s willing to make statements about what he thinks.
Confidence and Durant and development is like thinking about a shark getting missiles.
