Kevin Durant on Trump: ‘I don’t agree with what he believes in’
Count Kevin Durant among those who aren’t upset that President Trump rescinded the Warriors’ invitation to the White House. “I never thought about going,” Durant said after practice Sunday. “I just don’t agree with our president who’s in office right now. I don’t agree with what he believes in. I’m all about equality. I’m not a real big politic guy, but I know right from wrong. I feel like I know how people are supposed to be treated, and we don’t agree on those things. That’s what men do, they disagree. I’d go my way, and he’d go his.” ...

Time for Kevin Durant to get back to playing basketball
Is KD’s summer a cause for concern? Steve Kerr doesn’t think so and let’s just be glad Durant will be getting back on the court soon. Kevin Durant is a member of the league-best Golden State Warriors, a team on the verge of dynasty. He is an NBA champion and Finals MVP. Life is good for KD and the future is bright for the Warriors, who will look to capture their third championship in four years come June. Yet, as Ramona Shelburne of ESPN wrote yesterday in an article after media day, Durant’s recent Twitter controversy has prevented him from being as happy as he...

Warriors moving past Kevin Durant’s Twitter snafu
On Monday afternoon, when Draymond Green saw Kevin Durant at the Warriors’ practice facility in downtown Oakland, Green erupted in laughter. “It was a little payback,” Green recalled Friday at Golden State’s Media Day. “It felt pretty damn good, too.” Little more than a year ago, Durant ribbed Green at Team USA practice for accidentally posting a picture of his penis to Snapchat. Now, days after Durant sent social media into a frenzy for criticizing his former team in third person on Twitter, Green is relishing the role reversal. ...

Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant among top 20 in SBN’s Top 100 of 2021
SBN’s Top 100 of 2021 concluded today with Steph Curry and Kevin Durant finishing in the top 20. SB Nation-NBA’s series predicting the top 101 players of 2021 concluded today with the top 20 being released. Obviously, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant were going to represent the Golden State Warriors somewhere in the top 20, but the question was where they’d be.

Anyway, without further ado,...

Warriors will make White House decision as a team
Despite rumors, the Warriors have not yet decided if they’ll visit Trump’s White House. The Golden State Warriors have not exactly hidden their disdain for the current political climate in America. From Stephen Curry campaigning for Hillary Clinton, to Steve Kerr’s eloquent post-election message, to Kevin Durant’s pointed comments this summer, it’s no secret how the bulk of the Dubs feel about Donald Trump. In fact, it was only an hour or so after the champagne had been popped following Game 5 of the 2017 NBA Finals that rumors surfaced about the Warriors declining the...

Did Curry carry KD in the 2017 Finals?
We get way deep into the video to find out. Okay, let’s just say it. I know a lot of Stephen Curry fans are a little peeved at Kevin Durant right now. From Durant’s dissing Under Armour, back to Coach Steve Kerr telling the world Durant is better and then forgetting to mention Curry in the parade speech. This neglect of Curry really began with Durant’s taking the spotlight away from Curry in the Finals, and his grabbing Finals MVP. It felt like a chance for everyone who ever doubted Curry or called him overrated to point to Durant and say, this is what a REAL superstar looks like....
