Kevin Durant was furious, his anger came from the ridicule and ridicule of him from the outside world, and the quarrel with Buckley caused a large number of onlookers. Of course, the media behind Barkley would rather Durant spread the flames of war, and for the sake of the program's effect, the program team even arranged for Buckley to drive a bus to further anger Kevin Durant.
Why drive a bus to get Durant on board? It has to do with what Barkley and Durant had argued before.
Barkley mocked Durant as a "passenger" when the Warriors won the championship, which is to hold the Warriors' thighs, and only winning the championship as a "driver" is convincing. Durant had not won a championship before joining the Warriors, and had achieved nothing since leaving the Warriors, and the result of being swept by the Celtics this season became the laughing stock of Durant.
Barkley for the sake of the program effect, Durant is too sensitive, this quarrel between the "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix" is also very interesting. Durant also taunted Barkley, who teamed up with several Hall of Fame players in his career, "What would happen to Barkley's career without these players?" ”
Barkley's response was crisp, "When I was the 'driver,' I didn't win anything, just like Durant does now." —Ha, does Durant really want to be like Buckley?
If this happens to the average player, it may not be so obvious that it is not so intense, because it does not pay much attention at all. But Durant is no ordinary player, he has influence on and off the court, even on social media will not easily concede defeat, and the line with Barkley is just an offseason entertainment.
In response to barkley and TNT's ridicule, Durant responded: "A bunch of producers are fighting against God. Just another Tuesday. ”
Durant calls himself God? This is nothing more than a disregard for Buckley and TNT, but it is somewhat intriguing to say that, as you know, Kyrie Owen's deceptive behavior has led to the sophistication of being called "Ou Immortal", is Durant also infected? Such a statement is also just a joke, but it makes the Nets look a mess.
However, shortly after Durant's reply, someone replied to Durant, "God won't be swept in the playoffs." ”
The Nets have been through a lot this season, from Kyrie Irving's exclusion from the lineup at the start of the season, James Harden asking the team to trade him in the middle of the season, and Ben Simmons' comeback at the end of the season — all of which are Nets chaos. The Nets were swept out, but it was Kevin Durant who suffered the most damage.
The fans said this, Durant also came to be interested, you know, Durant likes to talk to the fans on social media. Durant replied, "What does the playoffs have to do with that? Another fan said, "After that series, it's crazy to dare to call yourself God." Durant responded, "I don't understand why you're so angry at me for what I call myself." It's about good self-affirmation, right? Be happy for me. Another fan said, "You call yourself God sounds rude. You're deifying yourself, which is weird. Durant replied, "Then why are you still concerned about strange things?" ”
The first career playoff sweep was a blow to Durant's prestige, so much so that his previous achievements were also despised. It is a sad thing that Durant, once regarded as a league superstar and in the discussion of the league's top players, is now forced to prove himself.
But why did it get so bad?
