Whether on Twitter or in person, Kevin Durant can never turn down a good trash-talking session.
A funny video of the Brooklyn Nets star getting into it with Milwaukee Bucks fans during Saturday’s game went viral over the weekend. The video, which was posted by Twitter user Michael Sutherland, showed Durant wandering over from the bench to the baseline to engage the fans. Durant, who did not play in the contest, appeared to be telling them that he would “win it” this year. One fan then joked that he needed a shoe that was one inch smaller.
Durant and the fans were referring to the Brooklyn-Milwaukee showdown in the second round of the playoffs last year. The Bucks narrowly beat the Nets in overtime of Game 7, but Durant almost won it in regulation, hitting a shot with his foot just barely on the three-point line.
The Nets did get a bit of revenge on Saturday, defeating the Bucks 126-123. You can also guarantee that Durant is looking forward to getting back from his MCL sprain, even if he is one of the NBA’s very best at just talking trash.
