0:00.0	Welcome back to this settler's podcast. Always on your host Eddie Gonzales and I'm joined by the
0:13.3	reigning Eastern Conference Player of the Week Kevin Durant. I looked this up, you've won
0:20.6	that 29 times, you've been player them up 20 times. Did they send you anything? Did you get
0:25.4	like a small like glass trophy? I did not see that in the trophy room when you had the trophy.
0:33.6	I got a trophy case. It's like a few of them and a couple of my cribs lying around somewhere.
0:41.8	Player of the Week with me wanting a coffee table or something. Imagine that conversation
0:47.2	piece with people in my house. I wouldn't have played a very nice, nice piece. You put
0:52.4	at the crib. How you feeling on the comeback? Last time we spoke it was the day before. Yeah.

1:51.2	games watching you warm up. The other day, you were like pissed. You missed like two shots or
1:55.0	all. You're just pissed. But so like I know you're standard of you as high. Do you feel like you're
2:01.6	like your peak Kevin Durant right now or you got a little ways to work? I mean, I feel like I can
2:06.6	make more shots. I always don't feel like that no matter where, but I like how I'm moving. I'm
