Kevin Durant calls a therapy session between players and refs ‘pointless’

OAKLAND, Calif. — Kevin Durant is not totally convinced by the league’s five-pronged plan to address relationships between players and referees.

“It’s a matter of what are they trying to get accomplished,” Durant said after Warriors’ practice Friday. “If they’re trying to go and have a therapy session between the refs and the players, it’s pointless to do that.

“No player is going home at night thinking about a ref, what they said to a ref, and going to sleep mad at a ref. And vice versa. They just need to make sure all the rules are clear because they switched up the rules this year.
