Kevin Durant doing those things Kevin Durant does

Kevin Durant: ‘People hate the fact that I play for the Warriors, and people hate the fact that I’m so damn good at basketball’

And I'm supposed to want this narcissistic asshole on my team?

And dude, even if this shit may be true, when the fuck are you going to take responsibility to keep some things in house???

If you're name wasn't "Kevin Durant", you'd be sent right to NBA purgatory for comments like this.

Actually agree with this point. Imagine if LBJ said something like this.

Durant as you said needs to keep certain things to himself.

He comes off as a very thin skinned individual

 

[CitySushi]

I Agree. He needs to stfu sometimes. You don’t hear Curry saying this type of stuff.

It doesn't matter if you want him or not. You aren't getting him. So maybe you should stop talking about
It as if it were a possibilty. But I get it, you would rather have solid players who meet your standard of personal conduct and will help the Pacers win 47 games and lose in the first or second round of the playoffs.

And yeah, I do want him on my team. His public image/likeability have no impact on the score board.

Bullshit James can and does say whatever he pleases. Read the news dude.

I know it's not going to happen, but clearly it bothers you that's I'm keeping up my stance and case for it to not happen. Go Warriors!

As it stands right now, we're on pace to win 50 even without a true second scorer and even without a 100% Oladipo. It's a shame that you're frontrunning ways can't see the benefits of this team adding a guy like Harris to its roster, a guy who is only 26 mind you.

I could care less what you think. You are the one bothered enough to start a KD thread every other week. And it is a bad look, even for you.

My point is that adding a player like Harris is only a marginal benefit. There is zero upside there. So get marginally better, that is fine, but adding Harris to a near max deal does not give you are realistic pathway to contention.

Then again, I am not sure what realistic shot exists for the Pacers. But that too has been my point all along.

At least you are happy with your team.

 

[broncosmitty]

Durant seems like the kind of person nobody would really want to be around. Toleration.


Hopefully Draymond lays him out during a game before this is over. I'd like to see that.

I'm not going to have sex with Charlize Theron because I don't want to cheat on my wife.

Good call.

And if the Pacers offered me a couple million a year to sit on their bench I wouldn't take it because relocating the family would be a hassle.

 

[Shanemansj13]

As much as I dont like Curry (for multiple reasons mainly bc he is so good) at least he is a humble guy and he doesnt talk shit, especially for no reason. I can say he basically is the same player when he came into the league, vefy humble and doesnt talk much shit. I cant say the same for KD...it’s like night and day from his early OKC days. Lost a lot of respect for him

Good choice. That leaves her more time for me.

 

[Tapey]

To be fair almost everyone does hate him for being on the Warriors, and if he wasnt so darn good at basketball no one would have cared that he signed with the Warriors.

Curry didn't join a 72 win team.

I don't hate him I just think it's significantly worse than what LeBron did with Miami. As far as him being viewed as an all timer these titles do nothing for him personally imo

 

[Wishbone]

Im just glad that people are finally seeing that it wasnt Russ.

 

[lebron23james]

I would like to see what Durant is capable outside of GS and on a team that isn't capable winning without him...My guess is he isn't as good as people think. Great on offense, but not good enough to carry a team to the finals like lebron

 

[richig07]

It's a douchey comment, but he is right to an extent. Still... yeah... douche-chills

LeBron is the only player playing today good enough to carry a team to the Finals without a big star or two to help. Jordan never did. Olajuwon did it too. And I suppose so did Rick Barry and Bill Walton but that was a different era. You could make a case Kobe did too.

I would consider Drexler just as good as Pippen
