Kevin Durant: I never planned on going to the Knicks

Kevin Durant and the New York Knicks? I didn’t want to be the savior of the Knicks or NY

Kevin Durant and the New York Knicks? «I never planned on going to the Knicks. Once I signed a 1+1 (with Golden State) the noise got louder around me just going to the Knicks for some reason. Knicks need a savior, you know how that goes. Every time a big free agent is up the Knicks are going to get him. So, it just took off».

«Once the media infiltrated our locker room with that Draymond situation, they ran with the rumors even more. It just got so loud every single day. … I think the media just hyped it up and wanted to just create drama around our team so much and around me that they made up this Knicks thing».

«So, around February, as I was thinking, I didn’t want to be the savior of the Knicks or NY. I didn’t care about being the King of New York. That didn’t really move me. I didn’t care about being on Broadway, like that».
