Kevin Durant is a player that is often spotted on social media, commenting on happenings around the NBA world. We often see him opine on Twitter on basketball topics.

Recently, we saw Kevin Durant call out Shaquille O’Neal on Twitter for not knowing who Lakers forward Rui Hachimura was. Durant clearly was in a joking mood, and hilariously claimed that O’Neal “doesn’t know ball”.

After that Tweet from Kevin Durant, Shaquille O’Neal clapped back at the Brooklyn Nets superstar. He joked that he might not know basketball, but knows “how to brush my hair” and knows how to “decide to cut it” when going ball. This was an obvious dig at Kevin Durant’s hair, which many fans have roasted in the past.

Damn, I got cooked for asking a simple question.

Shaquille O’Neal: I don’t know ball, but I know how to brush my hair, or decide to cut it when I was going bald. love always, THE BUS DRIVER

Kevin Durant: Damn, I got cooked for asking a simple question

As we see above, Kevin Durant responded to Shaquille O’Neal’s roast, joking that he “got cooked for asking a simple question”. We have notably seen Kevin Durant and Shaquille O’Neal go at one another in the past on social media, and this is likely far from the last time that it will happen.


Shaquille O’Neal Has Stated That Kevin Durant’s Championships With The Warriors Don’t Count

Kevin Durant had one of the most successful periods of his career with the Golden State Warriors, notably winning two championships and two Finals MVP awards with the team in 2017 and 2018. However, Shaquille O’Neal has stated that those championships don’t count, pointing out that he could have won even more with the team.

“Don’t be up 3-1 against the team [Warriors] and all you gotta do is win one stinking game and then you lose and then say, ‘You know what? I’m gonna play with you guys. Nah, hell nah… You could have won four, you could have seven like Big Shot Bob. I ain’t let that ride.”

Many people feel similarly to Shaquille O’Neal about Kevin Durant’s championships. However, at the end of the day, he did contribute a lot to the team. Draymond Green even stated that they wouldn’t be able to beat the Cavaliers after 2016 without Kevin Durant.

Hopefully, we see Kevin Durant win another championship before he retires. There’s no doubt that he’s still a top-tier player, and he has a chance to get far with the Brooklyn Nets this season.
