What’s going on everybody? We play Andre Iguodala and the Sixers tonight. Should be another tough game, so make sure you tune in and support us.

So have any of you guys heard of the Barry Farms Goodman League in D.C.? That place means a lot to me. It’s one of the best spots for street ball in the summer, but it’s not your typical street ball.

The first time I played at Barry Farms was when I was 16 years old. It was the finals, a three-game series and I played in that. It was the first time I stepped on the court and I was nervous because it’s right in the middle of the projects, a part of town I never really go to. I just used to go there to watch games and hurry up and leave before it got dark, but it was fun. I knew it was going to be a rough game. The refs don’t call fouls. I knew they were going to test me because I was tall and skinny. I never played there before but I stayed strong and held my own and ever since then I’ve been going back.

I went there with Ty Lawson. Me and him have been real close friends since ninth grade and he asked me to come play with his team. My mom was a little scared. She never let me play there before but now she let me go out there and play and it kind of let me show what I can do.

I have a lot of great memories from there. I had 62 points in a game down there and I had 55 this past summer down there in the playoffs. It was one of my memorable games because it was so packed. People were sitting on the gates and they were so close to the playing floor that if you go out of bounds you were stepping on somebody. That’s how close they were, that’s how intense it was. I remember going down, knocking three after three, going to the basket. I took one step across half court, I shot a jumper and I made it. I felt like I was on. The crowd kept hyping me up and telling me to shoot and they were giving me the ball. It made me feel good, gave me that confidence that I needed.

The best thing about it is it’s not regular street ball where you’re crossing them up and throwing it off people’s heads and just playing around. You really want to win. It’s for bragging rights for the whole city. Wherever I go, whether it’s Philly or Baltimore or L.A., people say, ‘are you playing down at the Farms this summer?’ It’s starting to become nationwide. A lot of people know about it. In D.C. we’re all about talking and bragging rights, so everywhere I go in the city people ask me when I’m playing again.

It’s fun because whenever I play it’s always crowded. It’s like the same fans every game. One time it was me, Michael Beasley, local legend Kurt Smith – many people don’t know who he is but he’s a local legend. It was all of us on one court. Then we had people on the sidelines…Shaq has been there, Nate Robinson has been there. We have a lot of music artists come down there and watch us play.

In the game with Mike and Kurt the Washington Mystics in the stands. They watched us play for the first time. It was just real intense. Energy was there from the beginning. It was a packed house. We put a show on for everybody to watch. I think I had 38, 39 that game. Just fun times.

I keep in touch with the people at Barry Farms all the time. I try to do my best to give back to them, since they’ve helped me become the player I am today as far as always supporting me, giving me confidence and letting me come down and play whenever I want. That’s just a blessing because not too many people can call them up and say, ‘I want to play today.’ They put me on any team. They let just let me play. They made a DVD for me, they made shirts. It just feels good to go down there and get that support from them. Any time I get a chance to talk to them or invite them to the games, I try to do that. You can find out more about the Goodman League on their facebook.

Also, here’s some video highlights of me playing at Barry Farms:

Well, that’s it for now. I hope you learned a little something about where I grew up playing ball. Have any of you guys been to the Goodman League? You guys know of any good places for street ball? Let me know in my comments section.

Last night KD and the Thunder took on rookie sensation Brandon Jennings and the Milwaukee Bucks. The game was broadcast nationally on ESPN, making it the first nationally televised game of the season for the Thunder. The Thunder made sure to show basketball fans around the country what all the hype surrounding them is about, defeating the Bucks 108-109. KD finished the game with 33 points and 12 rebounds 5 assists and 3 steals. Here are the highlights:

What’s good everybody? Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. I hit the weights in the morning and then grubbed all day long.

I’m sure most of you already figured out that I’m a HUGE basketball junkie. I love to play and watch, and just because I’m always busy hoopin’ with the Thunder doesn’t mean I don’t follow what’s going on throughout the League. I keep up on things through NBA.com and box scores.

So who do I think is playing well so far? Of course my teammates have impressed me. We’re getting better as a team. But there’s a lot of other players who have looked good, too.

Of course superstars like LeBron, Kobe, D-Wade and Carmelo are having a good year. A lot of the rookies, Tyreke Evans, Jonny Flynn…they’re all having a good year so far. Oh yeah, I can’t forget Brandon Jennings. He has definitely impressed me so far. 55 points in a game as a Rookie is just crazy.

We’re actually playing Brandon and the Bucks tonight on ESPN. It’s gonna be another tough game, but should be a lot of fun. The game starts at 8:30 pm OKC time. Make sure to check us out.

Alright, I’m out. But leave comments and tell me who you think is playing well this season.

Hey everyone. I was on NBA TV’s Fan Night before our game against the Jazz last night. Here’s a video of the interview:

What’s up everybody? Thanksgiving is only a few hours away and I’m ready to eat, spend time with friends and family and just chill.

Tomorrow will be about friends, family, food and even some basketball. I’m just going to be here in Oklahoma City enjoying the off day with some of my teammates and brothers. That’s about it. Same thing as last year. I’ll enjoy a good meal with my teammates and get ready for my game on Friday. I’ll probably go to the gym tomorrow, lift some weights, get some shots in and then enjoy the rest of my day off.

Russell said he’ll come through and I’ll go over James’ house. I’ll just move over from James, Jeff and Russell’s house throughout the day. It’ll be fun.

Growing up, Thanksgiving for me was having all my family be at my Aunt’s house. All the kids, there was about 20 of us, We’d play football in the front yard and wait for the food to be cooked. Either the Cowboys or Redskins would play and we’d watch that. Thanksgiving was always big in our family.

As far as favorite Thanksgiving Day foods go, my Aunt used to cook this macaroni and cheese. It was unbelievable. Different than anything I’ve ever had before. I don’t know how to describe It except that it was extra cheesy.

Oh yeah, and about those Redskins. I know they’ve had a tough season, but they’re still my team. They had a hard loss against the Cowboys on Sunday but we had a good win against Denver the week before so hopefully we can still build off of that.

And even though the ‘Skins won’t be playing tomorrow, it’s always fun watching football on Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Talk to you soon.

What’s good fans? Thanks for all of the great responses to my first blog post. I appreciate the love.

We’re back in OKC today after a good win in Utah last night. It was a good win against a tough, physical Utah team. Great to head into the Thanksgiving Holiday on a good note. And yes, Andrei Kirilenko did dunk on me. Everybody gets dunked on at some point in the NBA. It happens. LOL.

If you follow me on Twitter you know about the new hot music group I’m a part of called the Broingtongs. The Broingtons are me, Jeff and James. We remake music videos. And we’ve got featured guests coming in by Russ and D.J. White.

It’s a group we made up on the fly. We try to make videos of whatever songs we love listening to. Here’s a look at the first video we did a couple of weeks back. It’s a cover of “Say Ahh” by Trey Songz.

We actually sang over top of “Say Ahh’’, but I cut the volume down on our part and put the words over the top of ours to mash it. It’s kind of like I did my editing part. You know I went to school for editing. But we’re just having fun. It was more my idea. We were in Houston when we first did it. It was pretty cool.

Here’s are latest video…”Transform Ya”. Check it out:

Thanks for checking out my second blog post. I’ll be back with another post later this week. Happy Thanksgiving!

Kevin and the Thunder bounced back from a tough loss to the Lakers on Sunday by beating the Jazz in Utah on Tuesday night. Kevin finished with 28 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. Kevin is now 5th in the league in scoring, averaging 27 points per night. The Thunder are now 5-4 on the road this season. Here are the game highlights:

Check out Kevin on the cover of this month’s SLAM Magazine. Kevin is on one of 4 available covers for SLAM’s “How-To” Issue. In the issue, SLAM asks the best players in the world to give tips on how readers can become great basketball players.

Kevin’s How-To section? Scoring, of course. With KD’s current 27 ppg scoring average, it’s easy to understand why they would come to KD for that section of the issue.

For more info, check out what SLAM Executive Editor Lang Whitaker had to say about the issue.

What’s good fans? Welcome to my personal blog. This is my first blog post! I’m going to keep you guys updated on what’s going on with me on and off the court, so enjoy and keep coming back.

I am a big fan of Twitter, Facebook and other social media. It’s a lot of fun being social with everybody who is a basketball fan, who loves to watch us play and loves to watch me play. That’s why I do this. It’s pretty cool just to meet some of the people I’ve met so far on Twitter and Facebook. There’s just a lot of great basketball fans who respect the game and really know me as a player.

I’ve already given away some shoes and Nike care packages on Twitter to fans that answered trivia questions about me, and that was a lot of fun. It’s just something I wanted to do…I was in a giving mood, and it’s always good to give back to the fans.

Right now we’re on another road trip. We just played Kobe and the Lakers on Sunday (Tough loss!). Now we’re in Utah for a game against the Jazz on Tuesday.

We’ve been on the road a lot this season, which has been one of our first tests – how to get through long road trips. We’ve already played in San Antonio, Sacramento, L.A., Miami and Orlando.

Our last trip was very rewarding for us. There were some ups and downs on the trip, but we learned a lot. We learned how to handle six games in nine nights. Remember, we’re all still young guys learning how to go through that. We won a couple, we lost a couple. It was a good learning experience.

For those who want to know what I like to do on road trips, I spend most of my time listening to a lot of music, watching a lot of movies and just playing video games. I’m kind of basic. I don’t go really go out too much. I go to the malls here and there, but most of the time I play music, listen to music, make my own music and watch TV.

But actually when we were in Miami, me and the guys went to a restaurant there called Prime 112 and they had a dessert there called fried Oreos – one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. It was very, very good. If you’ve ever had them, you know exactly what I’m talking about. Hopefully I’ll go back down there to get some more of those.

When we’re on the road I usually go out to eat wherever the guys want to go. We usually just go to the mall or go to the movies, so we just pick a place that’s close by. We never plan out where we’re going to eat. If we see a place that we like we’ll just go there. I like to eat a lot of pastas, like from the Cheesecake Factory. We go there a lot. Actually, I think that’s a main place we go to on every road trip.

That place is so good, we just can’t stay away. The strawberry lemonade, the stuffed tortillas…Me and Russ always get that.

Well, that’s it for now. I hope this lets you in on a little bit about me. I’ll have another post for you later this week.

Last night, Kevin and the the Thunder bounced back from their tough loss to the Clippers on Sunday, defeating Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat in Miami. KD had his second straight 30-point performance, finishing the game with 32 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists.

KD’s performance had Miami’s Quentin Richardson at a loss for words:

“You’ve got to take your hat off to that kid,” Heat forward Quentin Richardson said. “He’s 6-foot-11 and playing like a 2 guard. That’s a tough cover for anybody in the NBA, as tall as he is, as quick as he is, and he has an unbelievable jump shot.”

Here are the highlights:

KD and the Thunder take on Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic in Orlando tonight.
