Kevin Durant responds to Charles Barkley's TNT comments on ring chasing

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Y’all do realize Barkley was traded to Houston (and Phoenix) right?

Yeah… Everybody omits that….. that’s how you know what you’re dealing off the rip…

Don’t matter

if kd is young enough and good enough to catch flack at age32 for the broken performance

then barkley young enough to catch flack for joining Houston

This is stupid…….

He was 33 and that Rockets team lost in the Western Conference Finals to the Jazz. KD couldn't help the team get 1 win in the first round.

They're gonna have a field day with this.

Them nikkas really tried to get jiggy they hate when this gets brought up tho and they’ll deflect about “being to old” even tho all of those guys were the same age as KD is right now lol

KD League MVP + 2x Fmvp > Barkley 93 league mvp

Charles League MVP in '93 wasn't easy friend

 

[CHERUB]

I thought KD was godly this some real SERVANT shyt. Nikka couldn't even chill off his phone for a bit. Going at old ass Charles Barclay who been out the game 20+ years makes him look worse tbh

 

[VegasCAC]

KD was the bus driver in OKC, I know it’s “shyt on KD” day but common breh

Yeah, and he drove them off a 3-1 cliff

 

[McPiff]

He’s now going back to the 76ers days with Moses Malone, Dr. J, Mo Cheeks

i like kd but this shyt here is stupid as fukk

KD League MVP + 2x Fmvp > Barkley 93 league mvp

Toe to toe with MJ > getting swept in the 1st round when you have another HOF teammate and both are in their prime

 

[Dwight Howard]

Simple

When the opposing coach says they are focusing on another player and doubling him, which frees others up, then you get your answer

By this logic there should be a LONG list of players winning finals mvp due to other players getting defensive attention....it doesn't happen though. Finals mvp is the most reliable award and rarely debated. Shaq recieved more defensive attention than Kobe yet it didn't stop him from winning. At the end of the day kd was the best performer on the team. Doesn't matter why he just was period

[Lord Beasley]

KD's management needs to suspend him from socials for a while. just get him some pawgs and take his phone. Call Rachel Demita back

 

[Left.A1]

33 in the late 90s is not the same as 33 now

Here comes the metaphysical juelzing yall

 

[Copy Ninja]

If KDs foot wasn't on the line, Nets most likely win the entire thing last year and none of these wild proclamations about KD would be made.

Harden completely sold this year, Kyrie went full MAGA when it came to getting vaccinated and Nash being completely inept was the final straw.

I disagree with Chuck, KD was the best player on those Warriors teams that won those 2 titles. If you replace Steph with KD in current Warriors team, they are probably just as good offensively and better defensively.

 

[Jerz]

More accomplishments (KD) > Less accomplishments (Barkley)

Toe to toe with MJ > getting swept in the 1st round when you have another HOF teammate and both are in their prime

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

How?

This is corny as hell. Chuck was 33 and Clyde and Hakeem were 34 and 34

They were damn near .500 the year before (48-34)

The fact they they are "brand names" don't make it a "super team" or "team up"

Only corny ass NBA Twitter thinks this is a burn

Was Charles "driving the bus" or nah.
