What if Kevin Durant weren’t playing basketball? The star would have his radar on becoming a weatherman.
They digged themselves a hole and I think from the start we were locked in on both ends ... The offense could use some more work, but I think we did a good job with being aggressive.
We stayed with it ... We made some good shots. Our offense is predicated on the drive-and-kick; that's what we work on every day.
He stands behind me 100 percent
We've got to put things in perspective, man. They didn't have one of the best players in the league tonight in Carmelo ... But for us, we have to stick to our principles of playing defense. Any team can break out and score, and they have a lot of guys that can step up.
We didn't want to kind of look them off because they didn't have Carmelo, so I think we did a good job of staying focused and playing our game
