Kevin Durant on the narrative that international players are taking over the NBA 👀
“It’s about time. They been coming into the league since the 80s… The real arguments should be who are they influenced by? Most of these dudes are influenced by who? Americans. It’s cool getting MVPs and stuff but who did you watch? You see Jokic, Porzingis, Shai, all these dudes with Iverson jerseys coming up…. They trynna play like us too.
You look at Shai, is he an international player? His pipeline for being a NBA player came from the American system. Where’d he go to college? Where’d he go to high school?”

"It just hit me, man, because it's just like that's one of the first dudes you come in with and you was around every day to finally step out of this sh*t... It surprised me."

Kevin Durant on Russell Westbrook slander (2022)
“If you play in LA, you playing next to the biggest figure in sports in LeBron James everything you do is gonna be magnified. Russell miss a layup it’s gonna be blown out of proportion. If he miss a 3 he might be 5 for 7 tho but he miss those 2 shots. It’s like now you’re making him the butt of your jokes. It’s starting to reach a different level of some shit that I don’t understand”.
Four months later, the Epstein Files still have vanished from the conversation, as if one of the biggest scandals in American and Israeli politics never happened.
