Kevin Durant was apparently so protective of controlling the news of his free-agent decision that he didn’t bother telling the Nets he was signing with them.
Or maybe he really wanted to surprise them?
In reasons known only to him, without talking to Brooklyn’s front office, Durant chose to break the news to everyone that he was leaving the Warriors for the Nets via an Instagram post on June 30.
In a world where texting a loved one in the next room is accepted, that seemed strange.
Yes, Nets general manager Sean Marks and his front office found out Durant was coming to Brooklyn at the same time as the rest of us did.
