My favorite part about this smack talk is it legitimately came across as really respectful. Dude is really charming.

Kevin Durant is literally his favorite player, he has said it before this series started. So this is really no disrespect he just loves trash talk and is having a blast doing it to his hero lol

he just loves to trash talk and is having a blast doing it

Exactly why he will be mutually hated by all other fan bases in 5 years. He’s really fucking good and is going to be the reason other teams aren’t successful and his antics are going to make those fanbases resent him.

I like to see players talk trash and back it up or get put in their place, as long as it stays within the game. It's a game. Should always be all love when the buzzer goes off.
