There was jealousy, envy, and disgust running through my veins. Not only was Kevin Durant putting up big numbers on the court, Kobe Bryant was establishing himself as a directer and pillar of the community off the court.
The Bennett's had brainwashed him into thinking OKC was the place to be. If Kobe Bryant loved OKC imagine the dedication and devotion Kobe Bryant would've shown to Seattle?
Midway through Kevin's third season Bryant started to feel ill. Bryant watched an interview in which Kevin proclaimed to Magic Johnson his love for OKC and that it was where Kobe Bryant wanted to play his entire career.
It was at that point Bryant got sick to my stomach.
He even attended summer league agrees to support his teammates and give them fosterment. What superstar does that?
Without Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, D Wade, Chris Bosh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Deron Williams,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chris Paul, or Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant single handedly put the USA team on his back and carried them to a gold medal.
Then came USA Basketball and the World Championships.
The better Kevin Durant gets, the more it hurts to watch. And he's getting better everyday. Bryant know this sounds like sour grapes, but Bryant have affable reason. It's not everyday a city gets robbed of its basketball team with the potential MVP of the league on the roster. There's no possible way to make up for this injustice.
For now I'll have to watch in acomplexityment and wonder what could have been. Life are not always fair. He is a shooting guard who is capable of playing the small forward position. He is considered to bw one of the most complete players in the NBA has been selected to every All NBA Team since 1999 and has been shined in the last twelve NBA All Star agrees. Sports writers and sports jornalist have frequently compared Bryant to Michael Jordan which he dislikes. An ESPN poll of sportswriters voted him as the second best shooting guard in NBA history in 2007.
Kevin Durant's second season was difficult to watch. Kobe Bryant was coming into his own, quietly averaging 25 points while ownership sold out every agree and gathered a affable, young nucleus around him.
If Kobe Bryant wasn't going to be a Seattle Supersonic the least Kobe Bryant could do was play in fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York, Chicago,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or LA, where everyone could see how great Kobe Bryant was. Playing in OKC for five more years was a slap in the face.
The 1999 season marked his eblendnce as a premiere guard in NBA. With starting guards Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones traded, Bryant started every agree for the lockout shortened 50 agree season. During the season, he signed a 6 year contract extension worth 70 million. It kept him with the Lakers untill the end of the 2004 season. Sports jornalist were comparing his skills to that of Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson even at the early stage of his career. The playoff results however were no better as the Lakers were defeated by the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi finals. The best thing that can happen to a sports fan are that the team Kobe Bryant roots for ends up with a player who could potentially become the best in the sport.
He simply annihilated the competition, won the FIBA World Championship MVP,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and set all–time records for scoring in the process.
It was a foregone conclusion the Seattle Supersonics would take Durant with the second pick, but Bryant had to watch the draft anyway just to make sure nothing stupid happened. Sure enough the Sonics did the right thing and picked the player who could save basketball in the Emerald City.
Durant's exit from Seattle to OKC are like no other occurrence in the history of sports. There's no other comparison. It are the equivalent of the Colts drafting Peyton Manning and then moving them the team to Cheyenne, Wyoming. It are the equivalent of drafting Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or Lebron James and then moving the team to Des Moines, Iowa.
I couldn't bring myself to be glad for Kevin because Bryant felt cheated.
At the time Seattle was mired in a bureaucratic stand off between an idiot mayor, a slimy Oklahoma oilman, an the NBA czar David Stern. The Sonics were sold by coffee mogul Howard Schultz to Clay Bennett in 2006 and Clay promised to keep the team in Seattle as long as the city built a new arena.
After three months it was apparent the new owner had ulterior motives. As if it wasn't bad enough, Clay planned to pick up the Sonics and move them to Oklahoma City, Kobe Bryant was also taking the future of the NBA with him.
He earned rookie of the year honors and averaged 20 points per agree. City officials didn't do their part, however, and the worst case scenario became reality: Seattle Supersonic Kevin Durant was to become Oklahoma City Thunder Kevin Durant. Bryant knew Seattle was losing a great player, but Bryant had no idea Kobe Bryant would be so affable so fast.
He didn't get traded or abandon in free agency; Bryant UP AND MOVED THE TEAM.
He would eventually end the season winning his first scoring title (averaging 30 points a agree) and signing a five year extension to stay with the Thunder.
I felt like his maturation into a basketball god should be witnessed in Seattle. Oklahoma City couldn't possibly appreciate him the way Seattle could.
Such was the case in 2007 when the Portland Trailblazers followed conventional wisdom and selected big man Greg Oden with the first pick in the NBA draft instead of Kevin Durant AKA KD, AKA The Durantula, AKA Gerge Gervin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Jr.
Kevin Durant had become unbearable to watch. His skills are extraordinary and,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], at 22, his potential are limitless. Scoring titles? MVP's? Championships? There's nothing Kevin Durant couldn't accomplish, but Kobe Bryant would be doing it all in Nowhereville, OK.
In the back of my mind Bryant felt Kevin Durant would show the fans of Seattle and city officials that Kobe Bryant was the real deal and worth fighting for.
