Kevin Durant Defends Nets Tenure Citing Injuries, Distractions, Limited Play

News summary

Kevin Durant reflected on his tumultuous tenure with the Brooklyn Nets, emphasizing that despite the team's failure to win a championship and the many distractions they faced, there were still valuable moments and lessons learned. Durant highlighted that injuries, organizational instability, and distractions prevented the team from reaching its full potential, with coach Steve Nash unable to fully implement his basketball vision. He defended Nash's coaching stint, stating that external issues tied his hands and that the team never got the full benefit of Nash's leadership. Durant also noted that while the Nets' superteam era is often viewed as a failure due to limited playoff success, the journey had its own beauty and growth, similar to other non-championship teams like the Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns. He appreciated the smaller moments and the development of younger players during that period. Overall, Durant urged fans and analysts to understand the broader context rather than just judging by wins and losses.
