Kevin Durant’s years with the Golden State Warriors were hugely successful and brought him two championships.

He also received two Finals MVPs during his years with the Warriors, although he didn’t want it that way.

Speaking with “Players Choice,” former Warriors player Quinn Cook claimed that Durant wanted Steph Curry to win the 2018 Finals MVP.

“And to be honest, Kevin wanted Steph to get that Finals MVP the next year so bad. That’s all he was talking about all season, like ‘I can’t wait until Steph gets his Finals MVP’ so he can shut up everybody, the naysayers. But I think in Game 2 [of the Finals], that’s when Steph broke the record, he had nine threes. And then Game 3, we were struggling, Steph was struggling, and Kevin just accidentally walked into 40. And then you just look at the numbers statistically, I think Kevin had a triple-double in Game 4. He wasn’t even as aggressive; that’s just how good he is. He just accidentally got the Finals MVP back-to-back,” Cook said, via NBA Retweet.
