Bill Simmons details Kevin Durant’s ‘alarming’ courtside behavior
Kevin Durant’s behavior caught Bill Simmons’s eye.
The Phoenix Suns are 1-2 since the All-Star break, and Kevin Durant isn’t pleased. He caught the eye of Bill Simmons during Thursday’s 120-109 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Although Durant had a tough realization after Sunday’s ugly loss, Simmons was still stuck on Thursday’s game.
He explained more on his podcast regarding his initial thoughts of seeing the Suns in person for the first time this season.
“The Suns were absolutely alarming in person,” Simmons said. “There are no other words. Oh my God, I mean, we were pretty close to the bench, so I could really watch it. They weren’t talking to each other. You know you judge certain things, like how many guys get up after a big play on the bench.
“What are guys doing during timeouts? What happens when a star player walks by his coach? Does he acknowledge him, does he talk to him, does he just kind of stomp by? Does one of the star players yell at the coach? Well, KD yelled at Bud twice during that game.”
