I don’t know if Stephen A. Smith and Kevin Durant genuinely don’t like each other or if this is part of a Saturday Night Live skit.
Stephen A. always makes sure to @ Durant’s name in his hot takes to guarantee that KD and some time his mom will respond. Then Stephen A. goes on First Take to talk about the tweets, and the cycle just repeats itself over and over again.
I don’t know if people even find it interesting anymore.
Here is the latest via the NY Post.
The bombastic ESPN personality said on “NBA Countdown” Saturday night that, if Durant fails to deliver a championship with the Nets while the Warriors win without him, he’ll eventually be known more for leaving Golden State than anything else. Durant took to Twitter to shoot back.
“Steve, since u decided to use ESPN to push your personal agendas, im sure your minions will run with this story for you,” Durant tweeted, “but if u believe this is what my career is defined by then you just a flat out hater. It’s gonna be hard to box the god in.”
Durant had also tweeted: “Egregious,” at Smith when he repeated the take earlier in the week.
Durant’s mom Wanda also hit back at Smith on Twitter on Saturday.
“You at it again with your limited-thinking-negative-narrative-baiting-comments; when will you show up better? More importantly, when will we grow tired of this foolishness?” she wrote.
Of course, Stephen A. wouldn’t back down from that and told KD if he had something to say, say it to his face.
I’m simply pointing out that you have to win, or else there’s going to be a narrative that you don’t like. The Nets are YOUR team. Folks will look to YOU. That’s what comes along with GREATNESS…….which is what you clearly possess.
You want to go back and forth? We can do that.But it ain’t necessary. You know exactly what I mean and if you’re confused, you know the number. The last thing I am is hard to find.
Who do you think won this mini-battle?
Flip the pages for all the back and forth tweets and videos.
