Unrelated to Durant, but it has always annoyed me how a lot of sports media will make certain athletes seem like bad PEOPLE because they don't play a certain type of way, or don't win enough games/titles, or some other on-the-court shyt, despite them doing more for communities than any of their critics have ever done.

The greatest example ever? Stephon Marbury.

Philanthropy
In 2001, Stephon donated $250,000 of the money derived from Pepsi sponsorships to help victims of September 11.

In 2005, Marbury donated between $500,000 and $1,000,000 to help victims of Hurricane Katrina.

In 2007, Stephon donated $4,000,000 to New York City, $1,000,000 each to the NYPD, FDNY, EMT, and New York City Teacher's Fund
