There's no question about where I'm going and how this is going to happen," Irvi
ng said. "I'm here with [Durant], but also I'm here to build a great team. I've
averaged this many points, done this many things. Individually, been recognized
for my greatness, but at this point in my career, I really just want to be part
of a great team. And just dominate that way and not really focus on any individu
al accolades and achievements. Just really build something special -- that's my
focus going into the summer is just building with my teammates."



When I say I'm here with Kev, I think that really entails us managing this franc
hise together," Irving said. "Alongside [owner] Joe [Tsai] and [general manager]
 Sean [Marks], just our group of family members in our locker room, in our organ
ization. So it's not just about me and Kev, I don't want to make it just about t
hat, we're cornerstones but we have a few other guys on contract. I think we've
just got to make some moves this offseason, really talk about it, and really be
intentional about what we're building and have some fun with it, make it enjoyab
le.



"And hopefully we get to start from day one just as a squad and as a family and
we just really worry about us. Sometimes I feel like the noise on the external w
orld, the outside noise, can seep in. I'm not the type of person to allow that t
o happen, so as we build together as a squad, I just think we need to be tougher
 mentally and just more honest about what we want to accomplish. And just stick
to the goal, stick to the mission."
