08:08 AM ET 07.12 | The prospect of "What might have been" is staring Kevin Durant in the face these days with Team USA. [Durant has] a constant reminder of his heartache, with former opponent and Finals MVP LeBron James now sharing the same uniform and goal of winning in London. He admitted that playing with someone who just claimed the championship at Durant's expense bothers him. "It does. But what can I do? He's my teammate now. I'm a team player. I can't let it affect this. It's bigger than that. I'm going to just get over it," said Durant, who is also joined by two of his Thunder teammates, Russell Westbrook and James Harden. "LeBron had a great year. He won the title, so I let it go; but for me, I was just upset with us -- my whole team and myself."

Harden is ten times the player Lin is. His body of work is much stronger.

Lots of people have one championship. Talk to us when he has 8 or 9 or whatever ridiculous number his big mouth spouted off.

The problem with some players is they are lucky to be playing with other stars who make THEM look better than they are. Harden is that guy. If he was "the man" without Durant and Westbrook, I doubt he be the player than some think he is. He's just an average player lucky to be playing with the other 2.

I wouldn't say that. It must be sickening to have Lebron and his cocky attitude around. Can't the players vote to kick him off the team?

That's also true. Lin will not be the Knicks starter for the entire season. He will be exposed quickly and can no longer sneak up on teams.

When you are the best at something..you've earned the right to a little swag or cockiness as you would call it. Think MJ, Magic, Bird, Kareem, etc were humble? Yeah right.....to be great you have to exude great confidence. Durant should take notes and stop playing Mr. Nice Guy with Westbrook
