How did you feel when the Warriors got Kevin Durant? You guys had to feel a certain way about that. JR Smith: I think the whole league did. People thought it was going to be bad when CP (Chris Paul) went to the Lakers with Kobe (Bryant) and Pau (Gasol). When that happened, everybody was pretty much playing for second. Don’t get me wrong, in the heat of the battle, we’re thinking, we have a chance, and we can win, but at the same time, it’s like, “What the hell are we supposed to do?” You’ve got three Hall of Famers, legit. What are you going to do?

Told Kevin Durant will make his return tomorrow for the Phoenix Suns, barring a setback, as @ShamsCharania reported. The hope is this maximizes KD’s time with his new team before postseason. @CBSSportsHQ @CBSSports – 5:13 PM

There’s a fun Bones note almost every other game.
So here’s another one that involves Westbrook
Both players had 8+ assists, 3 steals last night. Only 4th set of teammates to do that in NBA this season. (Jimmy/Kyle, KD/Ben, Pascal/FVV)
7th time in LAC history, 1st since 2015 – 3:20 PM

Wrote this after Kevin Durant’s first 3 games with the Suns, not knowing we wouldn’t get to see more for the next 10 games. Here’s a look at how he immediately elevates Phoenix’s offense: bit.ly/3JfyfAh – 3:11 PM
