NBA player says playing video games poorly helps him win in real life
November 3, 2009 by RawmeatCowboy Filed Under: Nintendo in general

"People might not believe me, but when I go home (after practice) I play video games and I lose all the time, and I get so mad that I come back and I want to win everything. Something that small puts that winning mentality into my head." - Kevin Durant, guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder

The only thing that playing games poorly does is make me want to get better at them. If I try for weeks and weeks but still suck, I just hang my head in shame a little lower.

He's got a point. It's called frustration and taking the anger out on other things :P

I played NBA '09 with Kevin Durant once.

And my friend, who works at Play'N'Trade, said James Harden from the OKC Thunder traded in Halo 3 at the store.
