Great stuff, John. Thank you for saying this. KD has been the perfect ambassador and possibly the greatest role model and classiest person in all of professional sports, and the kid has a little fun by razzing OU (since they're his college's biggest rival), and some people freak out. It's ridiculous and embarrassing. I actually felt bad for KD watching that video-- it's so important to him that his fans love him that he made this video to make us feel better. I really wish he didn't feel like he had to do that, but again, KD shows that he will always take the high road even if others do not. OKC is lucky to have KD, and I do hope we get to keep him his entire career, point blank.
