Kevin Durant: ‘refused to get rid of me’

The Phoenix Suns will play the New York Knicks Sunday afternoon, but on Saturday, Kevin Durant was taking reporters questions at Suns practice and the questions were mainly coming from Brooklyn Nets beat writers and were mainly about what one Nets fan has appropriately called, “Twilight of the Gods,” that week just before the trade deadline when KD and Kyrie Irving told Brooklyn they wanted out.
