NBA, Kevin Durant faces the past: “The fans took it personally, I didn’t”

Friday Kevin Durant he undertook to answer some questions posed by journalists, an opportunity to learn more about the player’s status and goals, but also to highlight some aspects left behind. In fact, in not long the questions asked to the player of the Brooklyn Nets have come closer and closer to the three seasons spent with the jersey of Golden State Warriors.

In particular, some questions posed by journalists dealt with the strong bond that has been established between Durant, Stephen Curry and fans.

On several occasions, Durant said that playing with Curry was a choice that brought advantages for both parties and beyond:

“I have always received love from the Arena fans. I have never complained about them or even my teammates. If certain news has been published, it is not true. I saw my jersey around that arena. Everywhere I went in the Bay Area, people showed me love. “

Durant’s farewell was certainly the heaviest blow for the franchise, forced to emerge from a bad situation complicated by injuries. Many have accused him of being the main cause of the decline of the franchise, even if the 32-year-old seems to think otherwise:

“How’s it going for me? What does it mean to me? It seems that you are all more upset than I am at reading the news that the media releases. Unfortunately the fans took it personally, but I never did. “

Then he opened a parenthesis on former teammate Curry:

“It’s starting to seem like all of you are really unsure of Steph’s potential just from what you read in the media. I know you’re big fans of his, but it’s starting to seem like your insecurities are falling on me, that’s why I become the problem. I don’t care what people have to say about who’s the best. That shit never mattered to me. But over time it became easy to blame others for the shit that was created, but I didn’t create these stories. “
