KD once said that he was tired of the Thunder system, the Warriors are team basketball. This year, the Warriors will not return to the Warriors Inkle system.
According to The Ringer reporter Logan Murdock, Kevin Durant left the Warriors more because of the conflict with coach Steve Cole than with dream pursuit. The following is part of the content:
Durant left the Bay Area, not because of his quarrel with dream pursuit, but rather a problem with Cole. In the Warriors' final season, Durant repeatedly complained about Cole's offensive philosophy publicly and privately, and this complaint continued even after leaving the team for the Nets. Although the two later settled, sources said Cole was one of the reasons why Durant was reluctant to return to the Warriors before the trade deadline.
Cole also said in an interview: "In the first year, he was a sponge, he kept asking questions, and I think he enjoyed it. After the second year, it was more like a job than enjoyment. The third year was more difficult, and it was more difficult to communicate with him because he was not happy, but I respect his personality, and he was easily injured. It was great to coach him, but you couldn't coach him for a long time."
However, it is worth mentioning that after leaving the Thunder, Durant said in an interview with Tony Allen: "Leaving the Thunder is to change his style, and playing real team basketball at the Warriors."
In addition, when he was hosting a blog show on Matt Barnes, he also said: "I'm tired of playing in the Thunder system, I'm tired of being the only one who can shoot three-pointers, jump shots, and keep shooting. So, I'm already thinking about how I can develop my game better than the Warriors' competition against the Thunder, and even if it's competition, I don't care. I've been following the Warriors since 2015. Their performance is impressive, the team with the most assists in the league, I like this way of playing, and they need me. Even if we beat the Warriors that year, I still want to join the Warriors."
