Durant, Westbrook Not Clamoring For Thunder To Make Deadline Deal 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Feb 18, 2016 2:12 am

Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were asked about the roster of the Oklahoma City Thunder ahead of the trade deadline.


"That's out of my control," said Durant. "I trust Sam 100 percent. Whatever he does I know it's for the betterment of the organization and the team. So whatever he chooses to do I'm happy with it and I'm going to support it. I'm not one of those guys that needs so much or wants to know every single move. It's part of the game and I've got to roll with the punches and whatever happens, happens and I've got to be a good leader no matter what."


Westbrook suggested he'd like the Thunder to maintain the status quo.


"I've been confident since the season started that we have what it takes to win a championship," said Westbrook. "I like our team and I like where we are."

Not like it matters. Sam will just play it safe and quiet just as always. It's why Thunder look the same year after year after year.
