More on this storyline
“If we both didn’t care, we would never have stuff like that. You know what I’m saying? And I’m glad that the win is going to sweep that stupid stuff under the rug, because people couldn’t wait — even some people in Phoenix, in here, couldn’t wait to run with that and say, ‘Oh, this is the reason why the team ain’t playing well, because of that specific thing.’ “But come on man. That shows that me and Bud really care about trying to … win basketball games. So he understands where I’m coming from. I understand exactly where he is coming from. It’s just people on the outside don’t know the dynamics of the relationship. So in order for them to get some attention, they’re going to run with stuff like that.” -via New York Times / March 5, 2025
After the game, Durant knew that his disagreement with Budenholzer would be a topic of conversation. “Yeah, that’s what usually happens when you don’t know the dynamics of a relationship,” Durant said after scoring 21 of his team-high 34 points in a fourth quarter that saw the Suns outscore the Clippers 43-22. “You catch something on TV, you get a quote, and now you pushing that narrative as if me and Bud don’t do that s*** all the time. We’re competitive, as two individuals, who want to see things done the right way. And sometimes my way ain’t the way that Bud wants to do it, and vice versa. And he allows me as a player on the team, a veteran on the team, to voice my opinion. -via New York Times / March 5, 2025

Shams Charania: Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison on Kyrie Irving: “There aren’t words to fully describe who Kyrie Irving is to this team or what he means to us as an organization. “Kyrie is the heart and soul of this team, and he has embraced the city of Dallas as his home and our fans as an extension of his own family. I’ve been fortunate to have witnessed his journey, his continued evolution and growth over the years, and am incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to see him approach the game of basketball with the same energy and fierce passion for the game that he did as a young man on the verge of his career. His work ethic and absolute dedication to his craft, it’s cut from the cloth of greats. I know it, I lived it, and I see the same ferocity and passion in him that I saw in Kobe. “All my thoughts and that of our staff are with Kyrie and his family, and we are confident that he will come back from this stronger than ever just like he always has.” -via x.com / March 4, 2025
