Kevin Durant on the 2015-16 Warriors: ‘I guess you could say I’m glad that they lost’ (Ball Don’t Lie)

Kevin Durant follows through. Like a lot of people – Ohioans, certain shoe company executives, major party donors, children of all ages – Kevin Durant appeared to be rooting for a Cleveland Cavaliers conquest in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA championship. With the Golden State Warriors well on their way toward giving up a 3-1 lead in the Finals, free agent to-be Durant had a vested interest in not looking too much like the championship-chasin' carpetbagger he knew far too many talking heads would peg him as, should he choose to move in with the Warriors a few weeks later.
