The Nets were swept 0-4 by the Celtics, and Durant was sprayed by fans and media people these two days. The famous Jhanhei Skip writes: "KD will not be heartbroken by losing, nor will he regret his epic defeat. That's what he said in his own post-match interview. He has a lot of money, he has championships, he has MVP and FMVP..."
Barkley was even more sarcastic: "Will the Nets hang the play-off flag over the arena?" Durant is just a playoff player who averages less than 20 points per game, and stop telling me he's a top player. I remember I've never scored such a low score in the playoffs! PS: Durant averaged 26.2 points per game in the playoffs this year, and Barkley had 3 years of playoffs with less than 20 points.
And that's not all, Barkley again mentioned Durant's decision to join the Warriors in 2016: "You can't join a team with 73 wins and say you're the best player on the team. If you're not a bus driver, don't go around saying you're a champion all day. You're just a passenger in this bus car, and such a championship is meaningless. ”
TNT commentators such as O'Neill and Kenny Smith retorted to Barkley that Durant has two FMVPs! Barkley said: "Durant is not the warrior's best player, Iguodala also has an FMVP, but he is not the warrior's best player either. I admit Durant is a great player, but after he left the Warriors, everything was different. ”
How can Durant, who is a surfer, endure? The young marshal showed barkley's teammates at different times, including Dr. J, Pippen, Olajuwon, Drexler and other superstars. Durant wrote: "Without these big brothers, what would Buckley's career be like? "In the way of the other, do it to the other!" Durant this wave of operation suits are not convinced?
In four series with the Green Army, Durant averaged 26.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1 steal per game, shooting 38.6% from the field, 33.3% from three-point range and 89.5% from the free throw line. Durant's scoring per game and shooting percentage are the second-lowest in his playoff career, just above the 2009-10 season (his first playoff trip).
Durant did not perform well in this series, but is it only his responsibility that the Nets are swept? There are also some former NBA stars who support Durant. Perkins said, "If I were Durant! I'm definitely leaving the Nets and Irving, how far to go! The Nets have only one player who gives to the team without reservation, and he is KD! ”
Former NBA champion Ken Young Martin: "If I were KD, the Nets would either trade Irving or trade me!" Irving must go, athletes can be selfish, but they can't put their own interests ahead of the team! "Irving has one last year left on his contract, Player Options. He has already said he is willing to renew his contract with the Nets this offseason.
Criticize Durant for not playing well in the playoffs, no problem! But without him, the Nets might not make the playoffs. Irving only played 29 games in the regular season, Harden was traded, in exchange for Simmons did not play 1 game, and Joha only played 14 games to be reimbursed for the season. Durant averaged 37.2 minutes per game in the regular season, the highest since the 2013-14 season.
Speaking about the outlook for next season, Durant said: "I will be involved in team building this summer, and I also want to know who I will play with in the new season. "What do you think is the biggest reason why this Nets were swept?
