IFWT_KD_USA

Last night was Team USA’s first exhibition game leading up to the Olympics and they made easy work of Argentina, defeating them 111-74 without much effort. Last night was also the first time Kevin Durant got to play a real game with some of his new teammates from the Warriors in Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. It’s still scary to think just how good they will be together next season with Steph Curry but at least for last night, the new mates didn’t think much of it.

“When you’re out there right now, you don’t even think about the fact that we’re teammates,” Green said. “We’re all teammates right now. Honestly, if you want me to be quite frank with you, I didn’t even notice me, Klay and KD were out there together.”

“I didn’t really notice. I was just lost in the game,” Durant said. “We didn’t really talk about it.”

“All I saw was USA across the chest,” said Durant, who scored 23 points to lead the team. “When you’re playing out there with players who know how to play the game of basketball, it just makes it so easy for you.”

The trio barely played together during the game, registering only two minutes of game action at the same time but there were flashes of plays such as Draymond freeing KD up with a screen or KD finding Green for the open three, that the league should expect to see over and over next year.
