Despite all the hand-wringing about injuries: Kevin Durant is back
Kevin Durant returned to set the court ablaze this season. So, why OKLAHOMA
CITY -- JUSTtwo seasons ago,Kevin Durantwas the NBA MVP,
melting hearts with his "You're the real MVP" speech. He had averaged 32.0
points a game and won a fourth scoring title, and his team was marching
through the postseason.LeBron Jameshad no other rival as best player
on the planet. Seven years into his NBA career, Durant was the man.
One season ago, Durant was laid up. Seven-foot NBA players with foot bone
issues have had famously bad outcomes. It was all painful enough that Durant
pledged not to watch the playoffs. But it was impossible to truly
disconnect. From his home in OKC's Deep Deuce district, he scrolled Twitter,
checked Instagram and clicked on one article after another.
What he read about, of course, wasStephen Curry, who had replaced Durant
as MVP, and then some. Durant had been contending for most of a decade, but
Curry nabbed the first championship. As Steph took flight, Durant lay in a
bed with an orthopedic boot on his fractured right foot, needing a scooter
to get around.
"I use just about everything as motivation," he says. "I know you say don't
read stuff, don't check Twitter, who cares. It doesn't affect me, I don't go
home and not sleep at night, but it makes me go out there and say 'f--- you
, I'm going to go out there and be who I am and you can't deny it.' Those
guys, Steph Curry, LeBron James,Kawhi Leonard, players that are considered
at the top of the league at that moment and right now," Durant says, "they
deserve all of that. It's nothing taking anything away from them. But I
deserve it too."
"I was definitely pissed," Durant says.
In late February against Dallas, Durant drained a 34-footer to end the half,
putting the Thunder up seven. On social media, the typical commenter
compared him to Steph. That didn't slip by Durant. It was supposed to be the
other way around. | z**********i
