KD might as well make that heel turn. Especially if he plans on leaving OKC. The media is about to turn the heat up on this niccas' "legacy talks." Unless he wins the championship this year, of course.

Few athletes prosper when the media makes them out to be the villain.

Terrible thought process. Letting the media shape how you view an individual you've never met??? Sad. Legacy talk? You mean all his scoring titles and MVP? Don't let these clowns reduce obviously great players to nothing because they don't fit the "how many rings" narrative. Instead of getting on KD, why not get on this clown SAS for not padding his legacy in the same vein as Ralph Wiley instead of taking the "gossip, media troll" route? He's an embarrassment.

fukk SAS. If he didn't talk to the man's family or friends then who did he get his info from? Just sayin that he heard shyt from league sources doesn't mean anything. Obviously that kind of info is only known to people close to Durant. Durant was right to call his c00n ass out. :childplease: at clowns in here tryna low key cape.

It's media breh, they all have numerous sauces, and insight..Atleast SAS is going to bat for himself, you guys are not willing to go at some of these white reporters that don't get facts but state opinions. I don't hate stephen A like you all do , and I don't like his threat, but I just seem to believe him in this case.

SAS called KD a liar and detailed many occurrences he met and talked to KD. He thinks he didn't nothing wrong. You might not agree but this wasn't a apology. SAS backed up his story...

:dwillhuh: almost every athlete that is a "villain" by the media is considered one of or the very best in their respective sport;

Barry Bonds
Mayweather
Allen Iverson

the top 3 most hated players by the media and yet everyone of them are considered all time greats in their sport :heh: media has NO control over anything they just might have you thinking they do... Media tried to shyt on Mayweather so hard during the Pacquiao fight it ended up being his biggest pay day :bryan:

Terrel Owens was HATED by the media, hes top 3 receiver of ALL time
Charles Barkley was HATED by the media, hes still an all time great and the general public doesnt even care about the shyt he does anymore. This mafukka was THROWING MIDGETS THROUGH WINDOWS
Lets not forget Randy Moss was hated by the Media, another top 3 receiver of ALL time and he still went on to set records and be a fan favorite :heh:

The reality is the average person lets the media shape their views to align with how the media wants them to be. The media sets the tone in how people digest news. That goes for politics, local crime, foreign affairs, etc., even down to sports. If ESPN airs negative toned stories about Kevin Durant, then your typical 50 year casual NBA or sports fan will eat it up. You don't remember how the media vilified Lebron and the Heat that first year they were together?

Not unless he disrespected me to the face, but then again I could use the check baiting him to sucker punch me. :jbhmm:
