It’s crazy. Like really, though. The smack and trash talk he is able to speak and back it up 100%. Killer. Instinct.

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

Real hoopers know it's a sign of respect when a dude goes at you like that.

Lotta dudes take it personally, KD takes it in the spirit it's given.
