6ft 10′ Kevin Durant’s ‘sarcastic reply’ to fan calling Michael Jordan an Insurance Salesman
Nets superstar Kevin Durant is facing a heated exchange of views with a fan on Twitter who shot Michael Jordan.
It wouldn’t hurt to call Kevin Durant one of the most polarizing athletes in American sports history. The two-time champion is not popular and he may not always play by the rulebook. Well, it’s no secret that KD is not one to give in to criticism or trolling, and they never hesitate to return the applause.
The entire saga began with Durant’s decision to join forces with Stephen Curry and company in the Bay Area, turning him into a villain overnight. Still, the two-time Finals MVP didn’t let himself get bogged down in public opinion, throwing it back at those who called his move “weak.”
KD’s online feuds with fans on social media are no secret. The four-time scoring champion takes criticism seriously and is always ready to return fire. While many may call him sensitive, the superstar is not one to keep quiet, always loading up on his ammunition.
