Kevin Durant displayed his brilliance by capping a 43-point performance against the Chicago Bulls with a tough game-winning shot with 1.6 seconds on the clock.
After the game, the two-time NBA champion talked about the final play, emphasizing how he tries to stay calm in moments like this.
“It’s basketball at the end of the day, man. It’s not too serious,” Durant said. “I know these games are high stakes and it’s a lot on the line. But at the end of the day it’s still hooping. So in the moments I try to be as calm as I can and execute the game plan really.
“It’s a fun game, fun game. Chicago presents a tough challenge because they press you all game, they top five in the league and turning teams over, they got small guards that can penetrate and shoot
” I feel like this whole week we’ve been playing so many different types of teams that’s just preparing us as we head down to this second half of the season. It’s a fun game.”
