Kevin Durant is still considered one of the best players in the world but that doesn’t prevent him from being criticized for the moves he made in the past and his attitude when facing criticism. KD isn’t safe and fans are letting him know after a recent tweet.
“Are you doing this work to facilitate growth or to become famous?” Durant wrote on Sunday.
Are you doing this work to facilitate growth or to become famous?

Some would say this was a subtle message to a specific person but the truth is that wrote a lyric from a J Cole song called ‘The Climb Back.” This was confirmed after he sent another tweet with another verse of the song.
Which is more important? Getting or letting go?

Still, fans took the opportunity to call out Durant for his move to the Golden State Warriors and his controversies in recent years.

KD, at one time, I thought you were playing for the love of the game. Every off season, you improved or added something new. But then you got the wrong people around and listened more to them than yourself

I’ve lost respect in you since you decided to take the easy route to a ring and still blatantly deny it. But I did gain a little respect after this tweet. A lot of fake ppl out there fronting like they care but it’s for likes. It’s all for likes. That’s what social media has done

Did you join a 70-win team to facilitate growth or to become more famous

NBA Twitter never lets you forget. They have no chill and won’t doubt to troll you or call you out whenever they feel like it.
KD has learned to live with this and he’s used a burner account to defend himself from attacks. Yet, that hasn’t stopped people from taking shots at him and send bad comments.
