TORONTO – Kevin Durant touched down in Toronto early Friday morning. Before noon, he was seated in front of an international contingent of reporters, facing the media feeding frenzy that is All-Star weekend.
Kobe Bryant, in advance of his final appearance, drew a bigger crowd. But perhaps no one's answers, whether from direct or indirect questions, were and will be more dissected than Durant's.
New York writers wanted his opinion on the Derek Fisher firing. Toronto reporters asked for his thoughts on the city. A D.C. TV station had him look into the camera and give Wizards fans a free agency message.
