The New York Knicks realistically didn’t even have a chance at luring Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving to the Big Apple, why? Because the culture isn’t at a place of appeal yet. However, the Brooklyn Nets culture is ready to blossom, and the players noticed.
DeAndre Jordan, who is great friends with Durant, revealed why he chose Brooklyn along with KD and Irving, according to Clutch Points:
“Not to knock the culture the Knicks are creating, but we like what Kenny’s doing and Sean’s been awesome and the organization, from top to bottom, has been great,” Jordan told Jen Chung of Gothamist.
