Kevin Durant has spoken again. This time, KD claims that firing shots at haters online isn’t petty, it’s actually good for the game. Forget post-game interviews and press conferences, the real action, according to Durant, happens on the timeline.
Durant says that “hitting back” at people on social media keeps the game fun. He’s not thin-skinned, he’s entertaining the culture. And you know what? He’s kind of right. KD’s Twitter fingers have done more for NBA drama than half the league’s PR departments combined.
While other players are busy pretending they don’t read comments, KD’s out here arguing with social media folks like it’s the NBA Finals.
Critics say he’s too sensitive but let’s be real, KD’s clapbacks have become a beloved sport of their own. He doesn’t just respond, he dunks verbally to keep the trolling going.
And honestly, he’s got a point. Why should fans get to dish it out and never take it back? If Twitter is going to be the court, everyone’s fair game. KD is just giving the people what they want, that is healthy chaos!
So next time you think about trolling Durant, just remember: he sees it, he reads it, and he might just ruin your whole evening with one perfectly timed response. Good for the game? Maybe. Good for laughs? Absolutely!
