Kevin Durant says Warriors 'work extremely well together,' but aren't a super team

— -- OAKLAND, Calif. - On Wednesday during exit interviews, Kevin Durant dismissed the notion that the Golden State Warriors are constructed as a super team. In making his point, he directed attention to the organization's drafting prowess and recruiting targets rather than just focusing on the fact that they have four All-Stars in himself, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green.

"Nobody wanted him. Nobody thought that that he would get back to being Shaun Livingston. Andre Iguodala, he got traded a couple of times. Nobody wanted him. A lot of people didn't expect these guys to be where they are today. Super team? No, we just work extremely well together. Coach puts us in position to maximize our strengths."

Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James also took exception to the 'super team' moniker. After the Game 5 loss in the 2017 NBA Finals, he stated that he was never a part of a super team.

"I don't believe I've played for a super team," James said. "I don't believe in that. I don't believe we're a super team here."

Golden State is 207-39 in the last three years during the regular season. In his lone season with the team, Durant said it's the selflessness that stands out to him. He contributed that, not just the talent, as to why the Warriors are so successful.

"We make each other better and it's not about who gets the credit," Durant said. "It's like, really just about having fun playing ball and let's see how we can win together and that alone just helps the ego. So, sorry I went on a little rant, but that's how I feel about the team. A lot of these guys beat the odds and came out and played a great brand of basketball and put the team first. That should be rewarded, and it did get rewarded with a championship."
