I've told this story as well.

When I worked for the Suns, Steve Nash –

in a playoff game, threw a behind-the-back left-handed pass between someone's legs against the Spurs.

And I was like, why would he do that?

And sometimes you just want to know, can I do this?

Can I do this with the stakes this high?

And so for Kevin Durant, and I have to do this disclaimer because otherwise I'll get a DM from him.

I haven't spoken to Kevin Durant.

I don't know anything.

But it would seem to me when you're that talented,

Winning it just because, hey, we're on the best team is not enough of an intellectual pursuit.

I have to find out what are the limits of my greatness.

And I think that's what he's done in this journey since he left Golden State.

It is the...

bizarro, evil version of the Aaron Rodgers theory.

The Aaron Rodgers theory is, I need enough reasons to explain my failure that won't be me.

It wasn't my fault, y'all gave me this, not at all, like, hey man, if I had, that's the Aaron Rodgers thing, whereas Kevin Durant is like, I wonder if I could.

Sorry.

Dan is speaking nothing but straight facts here.

He did a three-peat.
