Every time Durant is interviewed, he is very topical and effective. When he recently participated in a podcast show, he once again frequently used wise words. Durant said in an interview that if he was traded to an unsatisfactory team, he might choose to retire directly.
"Of course. If I were suddenly traded on an ordinary Thursday, let's say I'm sent to Charlotte, Milwaukee or something like that...I'm not disparaging these cities, but I mean, I can't imagine myself being traded to any of them in the middle of the season. If that's the case, then it's time for me to leave." Durant said.

"If I can't play at all, if I can't make the rotation, then what's the point of my existence? I don't play to just get those paychecks. I'm not saying I have to take all the shots or I have to start, but if I'm not An important role cannot find some rhythm and feeling in every game. I want to contribute every night, you know? If I can't do this, I would rather play basketball with my brothers."
In another podcast, Durant also shared his psychological problems. "I've suffered from stress depression before, and I didn't feel confident about my appearance. It felt crazy." Durant said: "This was about six years ago, and then I suddenly thought about it. I felt stupid for caring about it. There is nothing wrong, maybe I am too tall, maybe too thin, I just feel that I am inexplicably awkward, but I have learned to accept it now."
