Live broadcast, February 16. Today, Chris Paul was interviewed by ESPN.
Paul said he was still trying to accept the fact that Durant was an excellent player in the dressing room. He said: “This is different. It will take some time to adapt. I told Booker a few days ago that I played with many excellent players and I had a chance to play with Griffin. I had a chance to play with David West early in my career, I played ball with Harden. But I may not have played with two such players at the same time: Booker and Durant. I knew I wouldn’t take this for granted. I told Booker not to do that either.
“As far as my personal position is concerned, I think I have seen such a team, and then I always think, ‘how will they play? It’s natural. I think what I appreciate most is that I know how much Durant loves basketball, so does Booker. Therefore, the most important thing is that they love basketball as much as I do. I think this feeling is very good.” Paul continued.
