Kobe Bryant Defends Kevin Durant’s Decision to Join Warriors

Asking a basketball player their opinion on the Kevin Durant saga this offseason is starting to reach rarified air as a go-to conversation starter.

Like college freshmen at a dorm party asking “What’s your major?” to break the ice, any player with ties to the NBA is being asked to weigh in on the matter.

Guys like Charles Barkley, Tracy McGrady, Reggie Miller, and Jae Crowder have ripped Durant for going to the Warriors.

Crowder might be a bit biased, because he was trying to recruit Durant to the Celtics, but those other guys are retired legends with no skin in the game.
