Sam Presti came to discuss Kevin Durant's departure wearing a thick navy cable-knit sweater.
It was the Fourth of July.
It was in Oklahoma.
Made you wonder, "Does this guy know where he is?"
Rest assured, despite his attire at Monday evening's press conference inside the team's stuffed and sweltering practice facility, the Thunder general manager knows exactly where he is. One of the smallest markets in all of major-league pro sports. One of the newest, too. That's why he worked so hard to build this franchise's culture the way that he has.
According to the Thunder Way, players are given treatment that is better than anywhere else.
