Durant responds to Howard trade

Found August 11, 2012 on Hardcourt Mayhem:
PLAYERS: Kevin Durant,  Dwight Howard
TEAMS: Oklahoma City Thunder,  Los Angeles Lakers

With Dwight Howard now a Laker, it seems like we'll be seeing Los Angeles and the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals for the next few years to come.

Kevin Durant could be thinking about how the Thunder can get past LA, who have a legit four future Hall-of-Famers.

But what does the Durantula really think? His response:

Kevin Durant on Dwight Howard going to Lakers: "I really don't care."

— Jeff Zillgitt (@JeffZillgitt) August 10, 2012


Not surprised by KD's comment. He knows he can get past Los Angeles, even if their team has taken up a major upgrade.
