Here's a clip of the second part of the answer.

Joining the Spurs, confirmed.

Except...not

It's still a backhanded compliment, though and he still makes it known he thinks George is better. And he says Kawhi is "probably" one of the best defensive players in the league. He ing won defensive player of the year, dip . that piece of .

Hmmm. So, did Durant even use the term 'system player'?

Kawhi's is his conference rival, what do you people expect him to say?

Had to rectify what he said. Good for him too, after KA called Kawhi an MVP on Twitter.
Besides they will likely play for team USA together he had to put pride aside.

I bet those who want Durant to the Spurs in the summer are going crazy over this one.

No. Not the term.

He's coming back to Texas

[TheGreatYacht]

Seriously though, what is it with Spurstalk and former all stars? Every time a player and the Spurs get linked, ST rejects the guy if he's a former all star. It's weird.

I'm sorry but Kostas Galfinoklauschitz the European late second round prospect isn't going to replace the Big 3. Things evolve, leave that "built not bought" behind.

I can't see Durant on the Spurs. Look at the way Kawhi goes at him when the spurs and the thunder play, and even when they beat OKC in the 2014 playoffs. Durant is still upset about it, obviously. If you watched his do entary on HBO after the spurs won the le and Kawhi won the Finals MVP it didn't sit well with Durant so he made that twitter comment about Kawhi being a system player. Durant was filmed watching the Finals with his friends and he looked sad. If Durant goes to the Warriors, I don't think I can watch the NBA anymore lol. That's just unfair. It was reported that he wants to be wined and dined this summer, so we'll see where he ends up. Hope he goes to the Wizards but I think he will still end up staying in OKC on a one year deal.

Also KD's comment about Kawhi being in a system and a position to be the player he is, doesn't account for the work Kawhi put in the regular season and offseason to improve all aspects of his game. No one expected him to be shooting at a 46% clip from three. He is shooting off the dribble, in transition and catch and shoot more consistently this season. His hard work is paying off.

ROTFLMAO

[SPURt]

The funniest part is there are no tweets or rebuttals from Kawhi. Just a bunch of reporters asking if KD has had enough crow to eat
