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

[Mʀ2ᴋDᴇᴇᴢ]

Barkley as the guy, never won a championship, so him taking shots at KD was dumb.

Secondly, people are having revisionist history regarding KD's tenure with GSW because I remember folks, especially on here, was shytting on Steph because KD was the best player on those teams and that Steph was being "carried".

So if Durant wasn’t the main guy on GSW, was it Steph then, cause either way the media and posters on here are being disingenuous.

nikkas will say whatever so it’ll fit their agendas

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Every ring he does have he got being the best player on the team.

See you muthafukkers keep talking about bags..

fukk a bag nikka

That bag shyt means nothing when you don’t have the basketball character , intelligence and toughness to “unleash that so called bag” when you have to..

KD has ZERO leadership skills. ZERO.. He also is 175 lbs at 6’10..

All he can do is shoot jumpers he can’t post he has no upper body strength.. Why couldn’t he get in the post in this series?

He stayed on the perimeter

KD has extraordinary talent but doesn’t have toughness or leadership skills

He’s a follower

You feel he's better than Curry.. im not ready to say that's true

Exactly, even Barkley himself said GSW wouldn’t have won if they didn’t have KD. So is it Oochie Wally One Mic

Both can be true. GSW needed Durant (or a Barnes replacement etc) but Durant wasn't necessarily the driver.. many people say Curry

It was Curry's team... and KD went to Curry's team... not they both went to a team together like Lebron and Bosh to the heat... Curry was the captain there

 

[BlueHeffner]

Draymond literally told the nikka they dont need him, but somehow nikkas think it was KD’s team

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Steph Curry was secure within himself..

He had no issues with KD coming to the Warriors…

That’s LEADERSHIP..

KD whined and whined and was like “but no one will love me like Steph”

Cmon man

 

[Dak Pickscott]

man this is a fun discussion

KD left GS and couldn’t play because of his Achilles the next season there was COVID which lead to the bubble(Lakers won). The very next season came earlier with less games but still with COVID restrictions.(Bucks won) Now here we are


The NBA has been grinding down these guys the last couple of years and that needs to be mentioned. The amount of injuries to foundational guys and to guys just getting started (Ja Morant’s team played 24 games without him and won 20) Zion nikka. Also politics has been a bomb to it we already had racism but it has magnified from more players getting beat up by cops, the murders of black men by police used as marketing, former Presidents from both sides, the lock down, the vaccine bullshyt that only happened in Cali and NY, and so much more.

KD has been balling since he came back non stop except for injuries and contact tracing regardless of what’s been around him including winning a gold Medal

When it comes to KD this is how we show appreciation we shyt on him

Wtf are you talking about

 

[Dwight Howard]

Doesn't matter what you think he FACTUALLY outplayed him when it mattered most...true or false?

 

[Dwight Howard]

Draymond says it so it must be true...what type of dumbass argument is this.

They obviously needed him because they haven't won a playoff series since he left. Couldn't beat Toronto, couldn't make the playoffs last year....they dont win any of those finals without kd given the way the rest of the team played

KD himself has won 1 playoff series since he left GS and that was with a prime Harden averaging 28 and Kyrie averaging 27. Boy got swept and was getting clamped up by Grant Williams.

GS beat the Blazers in the WCF (4-0) without KD and finished off Houston the round before without him.


Stop embarrassing yourself

Yea but he has won and GS hasnt,, saying Kd can't win shyt without GS become laughable under that context because they haven't won shyt either. On top of that.....KD damn near knocked off the bucks by himself, if that's not a carry job I don't know what is

 

[Antdrewjosh]

No he wasn't. He was averaging 20 PPG.

Which shows you how good he WAS. Still being able to average 20 PPG doesnt mean he was the same Barkley who was dunking on nikkas head
