Kevin Durant made a rather mundane comment that put basketball in perspective and some talking head tried to take exception to it. Here, we respond. Last Tuesday, ESPN’s Zach Lowe wrote an article that included a quote about how Golden State Warriors Star Kevin Durant feels about winning championships. “I mean, I’m crazy about winning, don’t get me wrong,” Durant told Lowe. “I’m just not obsessed with winning championships. It’s not the only reason I play. I play for my individual growth.” Honestly, we’re just getting to this now because we all saw the quote, but none...

The Grizzlies, and Memphis, are helpless
We can speculate all we want about who the Memphis Grizzlies should pick, but it’s not up to us (or even the Grizzlies). I really like Kevin Durant. No really, I actually do.

As you can probably imagine, I also really...
