Kevin Durant had a great answer to a question about him being picked by LeBron James for the All-Star Game for the second year in a row.
The NBA has changed up its All-Star Game format to make players from different conferences the captains of a team who then draft their roster. Two years in a row, LeBron has taken Durant with the No. 1 overall pick.
Durant was asked about that on Friday night and had a perfect answer: “What else is he supposed to do?”

Matter-of-fact. Simple. True.
Durant is the second-best player in the league behind LeBron. Taking him is as easy of a choice as it gets. You just have to love Durant’s confidence that led to that answer. He didn’t think twice about it. When Durant is as cool as that, it makes you wonder why he also gets so cross with the media as well.
