KD/CJ Twitter Beef

 CJ was 100% right!!!

 It’s crazy to me how unlikeable Durant has become. He’s combative with his fans and the media, largely makes up stuff to complain about, and then tries to blame everyone else when his feelings get hurt. He’s unquestionably a great player, but it’s getting to a point where he’s losing credibility with anything outside the actual game.

I don’t know if it’s a real beef or not, but it was a bad idea to do that podcast either way. It made them both look bad.

 KD is engaging in a classic example of overcompensating. He made one of the weakest moves in the history of sports, he knows it, everybody else knows it, including his peers, and now he’s going out of his way to show he’s hard.

You’d be surprised how many people are smart enough to actually see this, and find his act rather unlikable. Big surprise.

 Remember back in the day when everyone said KD was Too quiet and should become more vocal? And was The Darling of the nba?  Now he’s more vocal and says dumb sh!t!! 

At this point KD would be best just to close his mouth
Nothing he says will change the way people think about the situation
But if he was to sit back, stay quiet and act more humble while not having cracks at fans then he’d get some of that respect back from fans.

Man KD comes out as trying too hard to sound smart in interviews by constantly engaging in debates with reporters but he honestly asks the dumbest/most obvious questions. You can tell Draymond Green has rubbed off on him a little, but Green is much smarter and makes much more sense.

It’s hilarious to me that there are people who are still offended at KD’s decision to join the Warriors. 

He put himself in a great position to win rings and he has been able to coexist with other star players (that shows how great and humble he is).

Staying in OKC out of a misguided sense of loyalty would not have done him any favors. 

 & that’s about what the %%%’s would be w/ almost Any subject 

But on some level this seems to still both Durant – at least a little bit, like a scab that can be easily torn off

And I don’t think that it’s that Fans are giving KD a hard time is the thing that truly bothers KD – b/c KD has been in the Public eye for many years now 

I really believe that bothers KD is that 2016 Western Conference Finals b/c he feels the Thunder Should have won that series & if KD & Russ win just One more game over the Warriors they are Prob going to beat the Cavs in the NBA Finals 

Few people remember this now but as the OKC Thunder were taking that 3 – 1 lead against Golden State the story line in the Media was Shock & Not b/c OKC was winning but b/c it was the Manner in which the Thunder were winning!

OKC was physically Dominating the Warriors & KD & Russ were Both playing Beautiful Team basketball, solid fundamentals, ball movement, physical Defense & Pounding the Dubs on the Glass & then they jumped out to that 3 – 1 lead & KD started playing Hero ball & no one has really ever gotten to the bottom of WHY the OKC Thunder changed their winning formula!

Remember the Year before the Thunder Missed the Playoffs b/c of KD Foot surgery – KD got healthy & the New Orleans Pelicans beat the Spurs on the FINAL game of the season to TIE the Thunders for the #8 seed & beat OKC out on a Tie Breaker to make the playoffs as a #8 seed & a date w/ the Upstart Golden State Warriors! 

Back in 2015 MANY experts believed a Healthy OKC would have Beaten that Golden State in that 1st Round match up – so when one year later the Thunder knocked out the Spurs – who won the Title just 2 years earlier – it set the stage for a Western Conference Finals that pit the World Champion Golden State Warriors against the Thunder

And it was a Fascinating match up b/c as I said MANY experts believe the KD foot injury in 2015 allowed the Warriors to dodge a Huge Bullet! Remember BOTH K Love & Kyrie were Hurt in the 2015 FInals – it was Lebron & Mozkov, JR Smith & Dellavadova! And Cleveland ALMOST won that Series! 

So in the Spring of 2015 even though the Dubs had won a Record 73 games they had Not played the Spurs, Thunder or a healthy Cleveland Cavs yet – when OKC jumped out to a 3-1 series lead MANY people in the NBA said "I told you so!"

Think of how Different the NBA landscape would be if OKC finishes off Golden State & wins the FInals against Cleveland???? No way KD goes to Golden State & maybe today it’s OKC that looks like the Dynasty & I wonder if that Grates Durant to this day

 he told Bill Simmons he didn’t like analytics (with some good reasoning that people should actually watch games) but liked FG% but not true shooting %
