Durant expressed his desire to retire at the age of 40! Dissatisfied with the Suns approach: I m just an ordinary player, not Goat

On September 18, US media recently reported that Durant will reach a contract renewal with the Rockets. He has the opportunity to sign a two-year contract of 120 million yuan with the team. However, judging from the news now, Durant will likely sign a contract that is slightly lower than the super maximum salary. However, before Durant signs, the Rockets want to settle Ethan's contract first. After all, Ethan is the key to the team's future, and renewal of the two can also allow the Rockets to better understand the team's salary structure in the future and then operate.

Recently, Durant talked about his own questions when he was participating in the show. Durant first talked about his feelings about the end of his Suns career. Durant said: They made it clear in February that I had been put on the trading shelves, but to be honest, I was a little unhappy. I thought our relationship was very stable, but I learned from the outside world that I would be traded. This is really bad. They didn't tell me in advance, but the news I got from the outside world.

Durant felt betrayal, and he continued: I have been in touch with many people in the league, such as the Warriors, who tried to get me through the trade before the trading deadline, but I wanted to hear the Suns tell me in person, but unfortunately they didn't say anything to me. At the beginning, the Warriors really wanted to bring Durant back and let him continue to join forces with Curry, but Durant was not interested in returning, which is understandable. After all, the Warriors did not seem to have a chance to compete for the championship at that time.

After the offseason arrived, Durant was traded to the Rockets. When talking about how to get along with his young teammates, Durant said: We will be together every day for at least 6 months, and we don’t need to deliberately get close together. The relationship will naturally be established. Everyone has many common interests. Chatting in the locker room is no different from ordinary teams. Maybe at the beginning, everyone would think that I was a legend, a star they saw on TV when they were young, but by the tenth day, we were together and there was no sense of distance.

After that, he was asked about how to integrate into the Rockets system. Durant said: Age and qualifications are not a barrier. I am just a member of the team. I will not think about whether I am a Goat in the league, nor do I care whether I am a veteran, nor do I care whether anyone looks at me on the training day. I just want to try my best to integrate into the team and be an ordinary player. Durant said this very well and he will fully integrate into the team and help the team win.

Then the team veteran was asked about retirement. Durant said: Play as long as you can. There is no specific number for this. Of course, I consider retirement every year, but I don’t want to think about such a picture now. I still enjoy working hard as an NBA player, hoping that I can play until I was 40 years old. Durant is about to celebrate his 37th birthday, which means he will play for at least three more years.

Fans who often follow Durant know that in fact, when he finished his interview in 2018, Durant said that he expected to retire at the age of 35. He was only 30 at the time. As a result, it has been two years since then, and he is still playing in the league. Maybe Durant thought that he would continue to win many championships with the Warriors, and eventually left the league with satisfaction. Unexpectedly, after winning the second championship in his career in 2018, Durant has not won the third championship so far.

Durant joins the Rockets now, in fact, is working hard for his third championship in his career. If he can lead the Rockets to win the championship, then he can prove himself. After all, he was questioned that he won the two championships during the Warriors. Although he got the FMVP, in the outside world, it seems that the Warriors' first core to win the championship is always Curry. Under such circumstances, Durant has also wanted to win the championship in the past few years, just to prove it to the outside world.

Finally, they asked Durant about whether he wanted to be a head coach after retirement. Durant said: It depends on his mood at that time. Sometimes I will think about it, but sometimes I feel that I am not suitable for me. It is not easy to become a qualified coach. Let's watch it again at that time. Now I am still enjoying training every day, which may be a good start. To be honest, Durant is the head coach, I can't imagine this scene.

I have always been used to Durant wearing a man-haired dress or other outfits that don't seem to be rigorous enough. I occasionally let Durant change into formal clothes to coach on the sidelines. To be honest, I really can't think of this scene. In fact, many top stars cannot succeed in becoming head coaches after retirement because their talent is so good. In some rounds, they think that players can easily solve it, but they just can't do it. Measuring players with their own abilities may make him feel that many players' performance is intolerable and they want to go up and end the game by themselves.

Having said that, what do you want to say about Durant? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
