Alpine FROM PAGE 1 rior bench. After a brief chat, he remained in the game for 37 more seconds. But Durant couldn't shake the pain. The War- riors were forced to call timeout. A frustrated Durant, joined by David West and a trainer, slowly limped up the tunnel and into the locker room, clutching his left knee with a concerned look on his face. "Just really hoping it was a bone bruise," Dray- mond Green said. "Obvi- ously that's still the hope." Pachulia said he had no idea Durant was behind him and initially had no idea he'd injured the star forward. He didn't blame the reckless loose ball foul on Gortat, calling it "just a basketball play" and asked inquiring reporters: "You guys think I did it on pur- pose or something?" Twenty minutes af- ter the loss, the Warriors opened the locker room to the press. Durant had been gone for some time, already off for testing. His teammates had yet to see him and gauge his mood. Some said they texted him encouragement. But the mood in the room was si- lent and decidedly somber, much more so than a typi- cal regular season loss. "Obviously KD is the No. 1 reason (for the mood)," Pachulia said. "We're not going to act like he died when we don't even know what hap- pened," Green said. "We don't know what's going on." Warriors FROM PAGE 1 cause everybody was so tense when I got there," Beckham said. "I had, maybe, a fresh perspec- tive. They were having this tough second half, but I was all set to go home and here I am with a team playing meaning- ful games. It was easy to be excited to be there. And maybe for them, it was a good reminder that they were still in a great posi- tion." Beckham got off to a good start with reporters, too, when he was asked for his reaction upon arrival and quoted Clark Gris- wold: "I wouldn't have been more surprised if I woke up with my head sewn to the carpet." It also helped that Beck- ham already knew Jake Peavy and Conor Gillaspie, two former teammates with the White Sox. And he had known Posey since they were teammates in the Cape Cod League. "That definitely made it less weird," he said. "But, I mean, it was still weird." It's less weird now. Beckham had such a good experience with the Giants that he re-signed on a mi- nor league contract. When he puts down his Nerf gun, he has his sights set on a reserve role, backing up at three infield spots and providing a veteran right- handed bat off the bench. He didn't flinch when the coaches asked him to take fly balls in left field; he started there in Tues- day's 9-5 exhibition loss against the San Diego Pa- dres at Peoria — the sec- ond time in his life he ever played a game in the out- field. "Just one other time," he said. "In the Cape." That's where Beckham first met Posey, when they were 20-year-old team- mates with the Yarmouth- Dennis club that won the league title. They came from opposite ends of Georgia — Beckham from a private high school in the Buckhead section of Atlanta, Posey from a pub- lic high school in Lees- burg, a 3-hour drive south of the big city. Posey went to Florida State and Beck- ham went to the Univer- sity of Georgia. They knew each other by reputation long before they crossed paths in the Cape. "We hit it off," Beckham said. "We did some fishing up there. We have similar personalities. I can give him a hard time pretty much every day and he does the same to me, and it keeps him relaxed." They were both top-10 picks in the 2008 draft, too. At one point, Beck- ham's agent told him that the Giants would take ei- ther him or Posey with the fifth overall choice "Seems like it's been a good pick," said Beckham, who went eighth over- all to the White Sox. "It's worked out for them." When Beckham joined the Giants last September, Posey cleared his catching gear out of an adjacent locker to create a space for him. Their lockers are next to each other in the Scott- sdale Stadium clubhouse this spring, too. Posey might show a stoic face to the world, but Beckham gets to see his sarcastic side. And he gets to give it right back. "He's not so plain va- nilla," Beckham said with a smile. "The cool thing is that he's the same guy. He's a humble person at the end of the day, especially with all the accolades he's got- ten and all the fanfare. He doesn't view himself like a lot of people view him, and that's a good trait to have in the major leagues. That's one of the reasons we're such good friends, because I connect with that."
