00:15Kevin Durant is one bad, bad man.

00:24I live and breathe this s***, bro.

00:26Like, I have nothing else but, like, at this point in my life,

00:28I got a lot of s*** going on outside of basketball,

00:30but what I mainly focus on is ball, bro.

00:34Sitting on 25 tonight.

00:37For the first three quarters, giving 26 and 30K for Durant.

00:42The game, Durant at age 36, and they just acknowledge his moment.

00:46I think we're amazed by him, the way he comes to work,

00:50the time he puts in, the attention to detail, the effort.

00:53And it's translated at 30,000 points.

00:56He's just a special player and a special human being.

00:59It's historic.

01:00Congratulations to him.

01:01He's been a steward of this league.

01:04He's been one of the guys that have just set a tone with their professionalism, competitiveness.

01:08All-star, Hall of Famer, All-NBA MVP.

01:14The way he can rise up and shoot over people.

01:17You know, his height, his ball handling.

01:59you're trying to take a shortcut to a championship?

02:02This was the hardest role.

02:05Curry on the go route.

02:06Back to Durant!

02:08What a play!

02:19They're gonna always be a part of my journey.

02:22So we didn't accomplish what we wanted to accomplish as far as winning the championship.

02:26That was a special four years of my career coming off of Achilles,

02:29and they helped me through a lot.

02:34It's pressure because I'm one of the best players to ever play the game.

02:37Every time I step on the floor, people want to expect me to do great things.

02:41I don't ever say anything's a failure

02:44if I get to, if I'm healthy enough to play the game of basketball.
