[Terry Yake]

it'll be hilarious when KD is dealt for a lesser return than what utah got for f***ing rudy gobert

And it'll be even more hilarious when someone tweets @KD that he was dealt for less than the rudy gobert return.

Rody Gobert shutdown the entire league in 2020, that’s worth the the premium price

What a joke of a human. Great player though so he will probably get what he wants.

“I want to pick the coach, but if it doesn’t work out you gotta get me the hell out of here” lmao what a p***y

 

[HisIceness]

I'd tell him to go f*** himself if that was me but I doubt it happens.

 

[Voight]

I see hes using a page from LeGMs playbook.

I am not at all shocked by this. The NBA lets the inmates run the asylum; the very best players can do whatever they want and make almost any demands they want.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

If I was owner, I would tell Durant to "Go f*** Himself"

NBA really needs owners around league to grow a spine at this point

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Imagine being an opposing GM previously interested in trying to acquire KD.

Are you still interested after seeing him basically trying to get his current GM fired in the mother of all trade demands?

 

[Sasha Orlov]

This guy is such a f***ing baby and a born loser

His teammates should reject him completely

 

[EpochLink]

Oh Durant, all world talent 10 cent brain.

“I want to pick the coach, but if it doesn’t work out you gotta get me the hell out of here” lmao what a p***y

So who does Durant want as coach? Some guy he follows on Instagram!? Lmao

 

[Terry Yake]

too bad the t-wolves completely ruined the trade market with the ridiculous package they traded for gobert

this is probably going to drag out into the season

I think there is definitely something off with him - autism or Asperger’s or something. He’s definitely on the spectrum and I think that’s the reason why he struggles to connect with people and interact like “normal” people do. Once he decides he doesn’t like someone, that’s it, and then he just refuses to interact with them or deal with them any further. That’s characteristic of the conditions I mentioned. I don’t think he’s simply just an asshole; there are plenty of those and this doesn’t seem the same from what I’ve seen.

The whole ‘Durant can’t win without Steph’ notion will last until he finally wins on his own. This looks really bad on Durant with the latest news.

Not sure about all that. I just think he’s a stroke. Or a spoiled child who hasn’t been told no before.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

hes sooooo not a leader... hes a passenger and cant deal with the pressure of being the leader. Piss off

this is so embarrassing now what hes doing

 

[Megahab]

I've hated Durant since he went to the Warriors. But his recent interview on Letterman's Netflix special made me kind of like him. I'm now back to hating him.

 

[hockey20000]

hope the owner told him to go **** Himself god the nba is full of such whiny divas at the top of the sport no wonder I don't watch it as much anymore now.

One of the many reasons I stopped watching the NBA.

 

[Megahab]

I'm not so knowledgeable about the situation, but why is the likely result of this? Would the Nets actually fire Nash and the GM to keep this diva?

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

One of the many reasons I stopped watching the NBA.

I stopped long time ago, after the Tim Donaghy scandal. But now I'm back on a whim and I kinda like how the game is played. It's faster.

 

[pld459666]

Durant is toxic

I'd tell him to go and find a trade that brings the nets a package that is better than what Gobert was traded for.

The caveat is that if(when) he can't find that deal, he has to man up, shut up and finish out his contract in NJ

After seeing what this child has done in his career off the court, what team wants THAT on their roster??

Hes pathetic.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Shut up and dribble.

But also it appears he has let up a bit and is now open to returning...but I'm surprised Nash hasn't been fired already...so uh trying to save some face?
