Kevin Durant’s Hilarious Response to Fan Page’s ‘Sarcastic Claims’ on Nets Winning Title and Ben Simmons Making All-NBA
It’s no secret that Kevin Durant is very active on social media, given his history of feuds with fans, trolls, and analysts. The two-time champion has even admitted in the past to using burner accounts. KD isn’t one to ignore the noise around him, something unusual for a player of his stature.
However, being part of controversies became quite a regular for the two-time Finals MVP post-signing with the Brooklyn Nets, which made more noise with their off-court antics over their performance on the hardwood. It was a sad state of affairs for the fans, who were robbed of witnessing basketball greatness.
In what many believe, the Nets could go down as one of the biggest busts in American sports history. While Durant isn’t entirely to be blamed for all the scrutiny surrounding the Joe Tsai team, one cannot deny the 34-year-old failing to undertake leadership responsibilities.

Highly active on social media, the Slim Reaper has us in splits with his response to a Nets fan account’s ambitious claims about the team.
Kevin Durant responds to Nets fan page’s tall claims.
Currently making waves with his performances, Durant could whisk his second league MVP. Coming off a 45-point performance against the Magic, the 34-year-old has been averaging 30.0 PPG, 6.6 RPG, and 5.4 APG on an impressive 54.8% shooting from the field.
Standing on the brink of +500, the Nets have an 11-11 record, which may come across as surprising to many, given the talent on the roster. Nonetheless, recently promoted to head coach Jacque Vaughn seems to have brought about a balance in the team.
Recently, a fan page of the Nets team was trending heavily on Twitter for its wild predictions in the upcoming days, something that caught the attention of the Slim Reaper, who had a rib-tickling response to the situation.

The above fan page that Durant responded to has been mostly critical of the Nets team. Thus this was the four-time scoring champion’s way of tackling the satirical take.
Are the Nets a top contender in the east?
Seeded 9th, the Nets do have the talent to make a deep run in the playoffs but have a lot of loopholes to address before this. No.1 being the lackluster defense, which could severely hurt the team’s championship aspirations.
Going forward, one hopes Kyrie Irving will make headlines for nothing else but his performances on the hardwood. It’s time Ben Simmons takes the lead in the defensive aspects of things. Thus it isn’t going to be an easy road for Durant and co.
