In 2014, Kevin Durant was one of the best offensive players in the NBA. With the ability to score from anywhere on the court, KD was an unstoppable force. But, his offensive skill wasn’t the only part of his game he honed. Known for his somewhat eccentric personality, the Slim Reaper is also a proficient trash talker. And, that same year, when facing off against James Harden’s Houston Rockets he pulled off an incredible move that led to him calling his defender a b**ch. The video of which has now resurfaced on Twitter.

KD isn’t unfamiliar with trash talk. He’s used to both serving out harsh burns and receiving them as well. Seven years after his dominant performance against the Rockets, Durant, now playing for the Brooklyn Nets found himself facing off against the Boston Celtics. During the match, there was an altercation between him and Evan Fournier, which saw the Frenchman call him a b**ch. A year later, KD returned the favor and insulted Fournier in French, calling him “petit” or “small”.
Kevin Durant called a Rockets player a b**ch while putting on an incredible offensive display
Kevin Durant is an offensive juggernaut and on January 16th, 2014 his talents were on full display. Playing against the Houston Rockets, KD showed off his incredible shooting and his unique athletic ability. He was unstoppable and completely dominated the Rockets’ defense. He even went so far as to call his defender a b**ch after he brushed him off while driving to the basket for the easy layup.
The game ended in Durant’s favor as the OKC Thunder came out on top, winning 104-92. KD had 36 points, five rebounds, and seven assists as he capped off a good team display. On the other hand, the Rockets were bang-average, as James Harden scored 16 points, and Dwight Howard picked up 11.
The 2013-2014 season was an exceptional one for the Slim Reaper. Not only did he average 32 points, seven assists, and five rebounds per game, but he was also crowned the NBA’s MVP. Unfortunately, he suffered heartbreak in the Playoffs, as OKC was unable to get over the hump that was the San Antonio Spurs. Take a look at the tweet below by @Kd7_Szn.

“Get off B***h!”
Durant clearly takes no prisoners every time he steps onto the court. Whether it’s through his amazing offensive displays or when he’s talking trash to you. KD will make sure he is heard, and more often than not, he leaves with the W.

No one is safe when Durant gets his Twitter fingers moving. And, if you happen to call him out on something, the best thing to do is just take the L and move on. After all, there’s no way KD will let it slide.
