[@joshg2802]

[@jand1144]

[@ZackTheSunsFan]

[@JayzoTheNextKobeBryant2.0]

Yes

[@swugg5266]

Glad that theres so many players who loves the sonics as much as we do

[@jbbaker202]

Hell ya KD bring back the Sonics. Seattle has a rich basketball history.

[@DarrenAlmli]

He would be the ideal Coach or GM for the Sonics if they returned to Seattle which I really hope happens

[@GRAAAANT]

Hi Kevin, hope you’ll be able to help bring the Sonics back! It’s been so much fun following your career since you started in Seattle, and fun rooting for you all these years, no matter where you play. Godspeed.

[@Tac0maAr0ma]

Come home, KD!

[@johnlarsen5273]

Born in Seattle 🙃 I Loved the Sonics Would Love To See Them Play in Seattle Again! Go M’s ! - Love them Too 🎉 Happy 4th everyone

[@dreamcage1801]

Sonics come back home 🏠 to Seattle

[@DerethAC]

As a Sonics fan, watching Kevin Durant's career has been the basketball equivalent of having your kid taken away from you and being raised by someone else.

[@suhugo9546]

Sonics will be back!

[@tianyaFox8098]

Hey 👋Kevin I'm loving all of these videos with u talking about life in basketball 🏀❤😊

[@philipconte5732]

To think of what an iconic Seattle sports star, joining the likes of GP, Griffey, Largent on the Seattle mt Rushmore KD would’ve been had it not been for billionaire greed and backstabbing stealing the team away to a LESSER location. Durant is a generational talent that should have contributed to the pac nw sports legacy during his prime. And who’s to say that in Seattle he doesn’t win in the finals instead of falling short against Miami, or not go to a rival the year after losing to them.. who knows. He does however clearly seem to know that what happened to Seattle wasn’t right and that’s appreciated. The SuperSonics were my first childhood sports love and my heart was ripped out when they left

[@Dutchofclass]

hope he comes back to the seattle sonics for one season at least. Sonics fanbase would erupt if he came back

[@cwill5829]

Dope conversation... Glad ppl still have pride regarding my fav Team(Sonics)✊🏾

[@hello_hansen]

paolo banchero & kd in seattle pls

[@blueruinray]

Yesss they should

[@classicgiraffe]

Love KD!

[@TheRealTruth533]

Focus on winning a championship with Suns. K.D loves shifting focus to every thing but the current team he is on. Never fails.

[@Q2GLObalWatchin]

Sthu

[@NOLOVE4AZ]

Lebron and kd should co own the sonics would be dope who wouldn't want to play for them two.

[@ianbenham3651]

Who's the amature operating the camera? Slider shots are the worst I've ever seen. That's called fish tailing, Please, just keep the cross hairs in the middle of the frame throughout the slide. Sheesh.

[@jantoy229]

First here bro

[@carebear2272]

I lost interest in the NBA when it became me sport and not a team sport. If the sonics come back and it’s a team, playing as a team with defense, then maybe, but I’m not holding my breath…….

[@A350Airways]

Would you have KD coach the Supersonics?

[@golfkhakis]

We don’t want you anymore KD. You’re the most insecure star of all time.

[@mattobranain]

Love the love for the Sonics. But being a player doesn’t necessarily equate to being a good GM? Look at Mike.
