Remember how recently Kevin Durant said that he and Russell Westbrook were cool? Well that might not be entirely true.
I was skeptical about it at the time, but eventually just assumed that they had privately sorted out their differences unbeknownst to anyone else.
Now we’re getting word from Russell Westbrook that I was right to be skeptical, because no reconciliation ever happened.
“I haven’t talked to him,” said Westbrook, indicating that there’s really been no change since he last publicly commented on the Durant situation.
What probably happened was that Durant was tired of people asking about how his friendship with Westbrook was, so he gave a simultaneously positive and vague answer to get people off his back.
