Kevin Durant on charges that he ruined the NBA: ‘I should be making more money if all that’s on me’

Ski goggles hanging around his neck, black "Back 2 Back Champions" T-shirt covered in so much Moet Champagne that the residue dripped into every handshake, Kevin Durant was prepared for his press junket victory lap Friday night with his NBA Finals MVP trophy in one hand and a small of bottle of Modelo in the other. When he realized that one of those items probably wasn't going to travel well, Durant took a giant swig of beer, placed the half-empty bottle on a table and commenced to gloating about having flipped the league upside down once again with the Golden State Warriors' 108-85 Game 4 victory. Where the first time as a champion was an overwhelming, difficult-to-process moment, the second time gave Durant the opportunity to let loose and inhale the joyful fumes of a more hard-earned victory.
