Let’s be honest, it seemed like there was going to be some love lost between Draymond Green and Kevin Durant when the two-time NBA champion left Golden State for Brooklyn. Despite all the chatter in recent years on Green being the reason why Durant left because of some arguments on the court, things have finally started clearing up. Through it all, the Warriors forward made it known that he and Durant have each other’s back for life on Carmelo Anthony’s “What’s In Your Glass?” podcast:

“We can easily say, ‘I’m not going to talk to him.’ And his life is going to go on and my life is going to go on and that’s cool. But the reality is, do I really not want to talk to KD? Nah, that’s my brother. We’ve done some special (expletive) together. But even beyond us winning a championship together, I got nothing but love for that brother. Like I love that man. That’s my brother. When you have the type of relationship that I had for him then I’d ride for you — One thing I do know is he got my back in life … he knows no matter what the situation is if he (expletive) up or anything he can turn to me.”

Later on in the conversation between Anthony and Green, the Warriors veteran confessed that finding a relationship similar to the one he and Durant have is rare. None of this basketball stuff will ever outweigh what the two have built outside of the court and that will never change.
