Durant on his 5 ejections and technicals this season: Due to love, desire to win championship
"It's just my emotions and passion for the game," Durant said after Friday's practice session
Kevin Durant has been ejected 5 time this season and picked up 14 technical fouls. KD, in a long interview with ESPN, explained this season.
Per ESPN, "It's just my emotions and passion for the game," Durant said after Friday's practice session. "After winning that championship (last season), I learned that much hadn't changed. I thought it would fill a certain [void]. It didn't. That's when I realized in the offseason that the only thing that matters is this game and how much work you put into it. Everything else off the court, social media, perception, isn't important. What people say, how they view you, it's not important.
"What we did as a team was special, and I want to experience that again. My love and passion for the game has [blossomed] because I understand that's what it's all about, and I'm pouring all of this [newfound thirst] into this game. But I know I have to keep [my fire] under control, and I will."
