  • Before we hear Kevin Durant's interview talking about Steph Curry putting on a clinic vs Serbia in the massive comeback win for Team USA, there are a few other quotes that I want you guys to know about that happened after the win.

  • Firstly, Kevin Durant saying on patriotism and playing for Team USA, a lot of BS happens in our country but a lot of great things happen too.

  • And Anthony Davis had himself a Charles Barkley moment saying, I got two words for ya, Steph and Curry, Joel and Bede.

  • I'm pretty sure that's four words but here's KD's interview.

  • We just played off of each other well.

  • You know, there's a lot of non-verbal actions out there.

  • Guys just knew each other were going to be on both ends of the floor.

  • It was special, especially being a part of Steph Curry.

  • We talked about each game, somebody might have to step up, it might be your night.

  • And he came and had the best night out of anybody the whole tournament.

  • So incredible to watch him knock down shots to keep us afloat.

  • Brian playing extremely hard the whole game.

  • It was incredible, man.

  • Joel was insane tonight.

  • I just love what everybody did.

  • There were five MVPs on the court at the end.

  • All of you wanted it so badly.

  • That's kind of a unique moment in basketball history.

  • Yeah, it is.

  • I think this game is going to go down as one of the most memorable games for anybody.

  • You see Jokic on that end doing what he can to will this team to victory.

  • Then you got MVPs on our team.

  • You also got to give the other guys credit too, like the bogeys.

  • Sorry if I'm forgetting No. 30's name, but he played a great game for them as well.

  • Their whole team played extremely well.

  • It was just high-level basketball that people could enjoy down to the wire.

  • It was great entertainment, but it was also great basketball.

  • What was the conversation you guys were having with each other in that fourth quarter?

  • We just wanted to get it to single digits by seven minutes.

  • That's all we were talking about.

  • Get it to five or seven with five minutes to go.

  • We looked up.

  • We were down five with seven minutes to go.

  • I'm like, all right, we're in a good spot right now.

  • Defensively, we turned it up even more.

  • We got stops when we needed to.

  • We made them miss.

  • We got a couple of lucky bounces too as well because they got an open three there when they were down two miss.

  • But that was just the momentum of the game.

  • Us playing great defense the whole quarter.

  • They get a shot that looks like they're not in the first quarter.

  • They done made that.

  • On the fourth quarter, they didn't make that shot because the pressure we put on them throughout that fourth.

  • It was just incredible basketball.

  • I was glad I was just on the court for that.

  • You've gotten to experience so many of Steph's big performances.

  • What made this one special?

  • Just because everybody's trying to find their rhythm within the group.

  • We were stepping five at a time.

  • Some guys playing roles they haven't played before.

  • Like I said, we talked about guys.

  • It could be any guy that had that moment.

  • Knocked down his first shot, but to get us going in that first quarter, I think he had 17 in that first quarter. 17 of our first 20 points.

  • Guys were looking for him.

  • His energy was high.

  • He was shooting the ball, turning around.

  • It was just a regular Steph game.

  • I think he was searching for that type of game the whole Olympics and to have it right here, especially when we needed it.

  • It was special to see.

  • It was God talking through him tonight.

  • This is God disguised as Michael Jordan conversation?

  • That's what it felt like tonight, the shots he was making.

  • We fed off of that all night.

  • Joel was incredible.

  • And defensively, being aggressive downhill, finishing.

  • Bron, I think they had triple-double.

  • You guys showcase who they are tonight.

  • I think defensively, we got guys that can pressure the ball.

  • We got length.

  • We can switch.

  • We can do pretty much everything, and we showed that tonight in the fourth.

  • You and Steph had a particularly nice moment at the end after the whistle there and just a real hug.

  • Those moments that you're getting on this team with these guys that you've been playing with and against your entire career, how is this run even more special because of that?

  • Yeah, a special group of guys.

  • Time is winding down.

  • We got one more game, and it's kind of bittersweet because we are playing in the gold medal game, an opportunity to get another gold.

  • But we're not going to be together once we finish here.

  • And it was just a joy being in the locker room with these guys, on the bus just talking life with these guys and then hooping on the floor with them.

  • Just the best team I've ever been a part of, and I want us to finish it off with a gold.

  • Come on, man.

  • How can you not celebrate a win like that?

  • Look at all our families.

  • Look at this.

  • You know what I'm saying?

  • That's what this is about.

  • You know what I mean?

  • We all come together as one on the other side of the world like this.

  • Starting USA champs.

  • Our section starting USA champs.

  • It's special tonight, man.

  • So we got to celebrate.

  • I'm not going to act like it's not.

  • You know what I mean?

  • I know we're going to win a gold, but we got to celebrate the small moments too.

  • In a weird way, a game like this kind of brings you even closer, right?

  • Guarantee you everybody here, they'll never forget about this night.

  • Everybody here is going to remember this night for the rest of their lives.

  • That's how special this is.

  • And because we came back, and we showed how together we were in that fourth quarter.

  • It was incredible.

  • Let's go.
