It's been a long time since someone had such a strong heel turn in the NBA. Durant is the polar opposite of who he was in OKC. Complete jackass. I think on the court he's still a good teammate but man oh man is he petty to the nth degree off of it.

He was in the shadow of Westbrook in OKC, and I don't mean talent wise. If Curry and Thompson are hitting their shots he is all-world #1. The change in personalty may be his reaction to playing with Westbrook and not being able to handle it. This bad dude persona is funny.

Im sorry but this is complete nonsense.

Are you saying Durant isn't being petty and still has the same good guy reputation he did in OKC? No? Then what are you actually trying to say? Or is your whole point to just insult anyone who points out the obvious about Durant ...

And I don't agree with what Rish said. Westbrook was definitely in Durant's shadow. Durant was an MVP in OKC. Westbrook wasn't until Durant left. That's why his leaving was so shocking. People assumed Westbrook would be the one to leave so he could be an Alpha somewhere.

I've also never seen such a good offensive team go so cold all at the same time. Minny is doing well but they can only do so much. Houston is missing open 3's, layups and dunks.

He even said in an interview that the OKC Durant wasn't the real him. This version of Durant is who he is.

So, he doesn't just have a burner twitter accounts - he even lived a fake life - according to him. Hard to say which one because his words have no credibility.

Durant was clearly the best player in OKC but he wasn't the alpha there. He is not the alpha now either - that's not just him.
This Thunder-Jazz series could become very interesting.

Westbrook says he's going to shut down Rubio.

I didnt insult anyone. I simply said that Rish's comments were nonsense. And I stand by that

I replied to Jimrat. Your post was before that one. I'm referring to him saying Rish and I are "buffoons" for saying Durant is petty and not the same.

I usually don't get into boxing matches and usually stop with a counter punch but I want to clarify something. I meant to say that Westbrook has a more forceful personality that overshadowed Durant who was more laid back. Of course Durant has more talent.
Utah turning it upppp!!!

That crowd is amazing!
Did the Timberwolves make a mistake in trading away Rubio?
Utah got that look they had when they were rolling during the second half of the regular season. Thunder are in deep trouble
