<p><strong>Kevin Durant</strong> is one of the greatest players in the history of the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong>.</a> However, the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/brooklyn-nets-t99901" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brooklyn Nets’</a> </strong>star has also made a name for himself for being one of the biggest trash-talkers in the league, especially when his legacy is questioned.</p>
<p>Durant drew a lot of criticism for his decision to leave the <strong>Oklahoma City Thunder</strong> and join the <strong>Golden State Warriors</strong> in 2016 and ever since, he embraced that role as the NBA’s villain. He’ll speak his mind whether you like it or not.</p>
<p>That’s why we should all listen to him whenever he’s in front of a mic. Nobody’s safe from Durant’s jabs, especially not the <strong>New York Knicks</strong>, the team he was reportedly going to sign with, and that now happens to be their city rivals.</p>

<h2>Kevin Durant Throws Shade At The New York Knicks</h2>
<p><strong>New Orleans Pelicans’ JJ Redick </strong>had Durant on his podcast yesterday and, needless to say, the 2-time Finals MVP shared his thoughts with no filter regarding many subjects, one of them being the current state of the Knickerbockers, going as far as to claim <strong>that the city is looking for a team to support right now:</strong></p>

It should be a fun time. <strong>New York basketball is definitely looking for a team to support.</strong> We’re going to come out there and play hard every single night and play exciting basketball,”</em> Durant said.</p>

<p>That’s a bit of a bold statement considering that, even though the Knicks hadn’t won a Championship in decades, they’re still <strong>one of the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/the-most-valuable-nba-teams-how-much-are-they-worth-20200803-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">most lucrative franchises</a> in sports and one of the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/The-25-NBA-teams-with-most-fans-20200423-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA teams with the most fans.</a></strong></p>
<h2>Durant Didn’t Want To Save The Knicks</h2>
<p>For months, it was believed that the New York Knicks <strong>were Kevin Durant’s preferred destination in free agency.</strong> He had enterprises and properties in the area, plus his legacy would have gotten a major boost if he turned MSG into a playoff arena again. However, he just didn’t care about that:</p>
<p><em><strong>“I didn’t want to be the savior of the Knicks or New York. I didn’t care about being the king of New York. </strong>That never really moved me. I didn’t care about being on Broadway. I just wanted to play ball and go to the crib and chill. And that’s what Brooklyn embodied. There’s no show when you come to our games. No Madison Square mecca, all of that s–t. We just gonna hoop and build something new in Brooklyn,”</em> Durant concluded.</p>
<p><span></span> </p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>KD and Kyrie Irving can certainly build something special with the Nets. They’re talented enough to bring an NBA Championship back to New York City. <strong>Sadly, not to the team most New Yorkers would like.</strong></p>

<p>Being an <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong></a> star like <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LeBron James</a> or Kevin Durant</strong>– or a public figure of any nature – can always lead to polarizing opinions about you. Your life is exposed and everything you do or say may be taken wrongly by a lot of people. Even if you have millions of people rooting for you, <strong>you’ll also have millions bashing you night in,night out.</strong></p>
<p>Durant and James have always been a subject of controversies among fans. Some hate on LeBron because they’re Jordan or Kobe fans who don’t believe he should be on the GOAT conversation. Others call Durant a snake <strong>for bailing on the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/oklahoma-city-thunder-t91653" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oklahoma City Thunder</a> to join the Golden State Warriors.</strong></p>
<p>That’s why Detroit Pistons’ star <strong>Blake Griffin</strong> called out the fans for the way they’re treating two of the greatest players to ever do it and asked them to just enjoy their game while they’re still capable of performing at a high level.</p>

<h2>Blake Griffin Defends Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Says Fans Should Just Enjoy Them</h2>
<p><em>“When LeBron left Cleveland and <strong>everybody just sh*t on him for years</strong>…when he came back to Cleveland and won, it was like we’re good now. KD left Oklahoma City and people still to this day don’t truly appreciate him,” </em>Griffin told GQ.</p>
<p><em>“You’re watching one of the best players of all time <strong>and people are just trying to find ways to hate on him.</strong> Hopefully now, with KD in Brooklyn, people might relax a little bit. My advice to fans that talk sh*t about some of these guys is, ‘Just enjoy these guys. Enjoy their talent while you can. It doesn’t come around that often’,</em>” Blake concluded.</p>

<p>You may like these guys as people or even players but no one, not even the pettiest of their haters can argue the fact that they’re two of the greatest players to ever lace them up. <strong>So, let’s stop with the hate and just enjoy them.</strong></p>
