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

[Damnshow]

This is why the Nets lost the series (and Kyrie being inconsistent). KD is bothered by what people think about him. If he wasn't, he would be making those clutch shots and not missing a free throw.

When KD is bothered by the media, he's a Tim Thomas with the green light. Dude can't handle the pressure, Steph Curry and illegal screens ain't walking through dat door.

Barkley was on the downside of his career when he weren’t to Houston.

Still good at the start

 

[SAINT]

I don’t think Charles was calling him a ring chaser

 

[Surreal]

Rockets were a 73 win team?

 

[Big Boss]

KD in for a long summer

I'm glad Chuck ain't scared to go at KD.

He said KD is a bus rider and not a bus driver.

It’s not ring chasing and it don’t seem KD was calling him that, imo. He pointing out that Barkley was also a bus rider.

Chuck been jealous of KD. His plan worked, Chuck's didn't. Had Barkley got a ring he wouldn't be saying shyt.

Meh, the Rockets lost in conference finals to the team with 2nd best record in the league. That's way better than getting swept in 1st round.

 

[NormanConnors]

meh...he was 32. same age Kevin Durant is now

Yep it isn't KD's fault Chuck didn't take care of himself

 

[Flex Luger]

checkmate response tbh

KD unfairly catching flack. It should be on Nash and Kyrie

Nah why it’s always everybody else fault and not KD?

 

[Ethnic Vagina Finder]

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

KD's rings are worthless. No one respects those shyts, and he might as well not even have them.

It's amazing how Chuck still manages to hit these dudes where it hurts

fukk outta here.

Again, if Charles got a ring with Drexler and Hakeem he'd act like it was the greatest victory of all time. There would be no "bus rider" this or that. He'd say "I got a ring and no one can take it from me". Period.

None of this is unexpected seen through Barkley's lens of someone doing what he couldn't. Chuck gets shyt on constantly for not winning a championship and its always going to hurt him.
