Just weeks after losing to him in the NBA Finals, KD is trying to win a gold medal alongside LeBron James. Naturally being the competitor that Durant is, the transition from being LeBron’s opponent to his teammate has been difficult. He isn’t the only player that’s been forced to focus on the Olympics following a finals loss, though.

Brian Mahoney of the Associated Press reported that Durant admitted it bothers him to see James’ face at practice every day (via The Florida Times-Union):

Greg Oden’s agent told me his client has changed his tune and now is willing to return this season after having wanted to take all of 2012-13 off. “(Oden) called me, and he was kind of excited,’’ agent Mike Conley said about the often-injured Oden calling Conley earlier this week. “I think he’s motivated… He wants to play. He had said he wanted to take this season off but he’s backed off from that… He’s open to playing this season. I think he will play this season.

Mike Conley, agent for Greg Oden, said he has not heard anything from the Heat since Oden was waived in March. But Conley said Oden would have interest in the Heat if they ever were to be interested. “Obviously, if the Heat wanted him, who wouldn’t want to play for the Heat?’’ Conley said of the defending champions. “That goes without saying. They have roster spots and a need (at center). But it’s too early to say about where he might play.’’

Agent Mike Conley said one reason Greg Oden has backed off from taking this season off is he’s been cleared to work out and is feeling better about his situation. “He’s starting to work out,’’ Conley said. “He’s excited. You can tell he’s getting antsy. At the end of the day, I want him to finish out his NBA career. He’s still pretty young (24).

They've been monitoring the Oden situation closely. But too early to say if he can actually play.

Highlights from the Jason Jackson interview:

(I'm guessing this was before Ray made his decision) Ray Allen heard about Lewis going to Miami so Ray decided to call him. Lewis didn't pick up so Ray sent him a text asking "Hey, this is Ray, I heard you are interested in going to Miami" Lewis replied "I'm already here" :krs: :dead:


Bron and Ray spoke a few days ago and Bron asked Ray what he likes so he can get some scoring opportunities. Ray just said "Dont worry about it. Just drive the lane and dunk on people a few times and all be open"

I can't wait for the season to start.

It's another conspiracy! :to:

Imagine if he came back like his college days.

The heat would never lose.
