Mike James reveals Kevin Durant called him before NBA Playoffs saying ‘Nets fitting to lose’

Mike James revealed that he got a phone call from Kevin Durant before the NBA playoff started in which KD admitted that the Brooklyn Nets had zero chance in the postseason.

AS Monaco guard Mike James was a host of Players Choice podcast and he talked about Kevin Durant.

Per Basketnews, "I only knew Blake (Griffin) before I got there. Kev was one of the people that vouched for me and for Brooklyn to sign me. So, when I got signed, and we were going on the road, we liked a lot of the same stuff. We ended up hanging out with each other every time we were on the road. He got the big suite, so we just went in there, hang out, play the game, kick it, talk. We got close.

When I went back overseas, it was like, ‘Alright, whoever’s season ends first, the other one is going to come and watch the playoffs.’ When I first said it, I thought, ‘OK, you’re going to be in the [NBA] Finals, I’m going to get to the Finals, that’s lit!’.

So, when they were trash and losing, I called him one day and said, ‘So, you know what this means, right? You’re coming to my playoff game.’ He was like, ‘There’s no way I’m coming to your playoff game.’

And then, like a week later, he called me before the (EuroLeague) playoffs started, and he was like, ‘Alright, I’m going to be there in a couple of weeks. We’re fitting to lose.’

Kevin Durant then flied to Europe to watch his friend Mike James in action in EuroLeague playoffs.
