Kevin Durant vs. fans on social media
After the agonizing 95 to 91 of USA on Serbia for a place in the final of the Paris 2024 Olympic Gamesfans exchanged messages on social networks. The one who intervened was Kevin Durant.
One fan posted: “Clapping against the US team? You mean all those Americans who were making fun of us?” Noah Lyles “He didn’t win gold in his last race? What double standards! Just admit that you hate the fact that Jokic is clearly the best player in the world.”
To this, the NBA figure responded: “To all the Nuggets fans, Nobody cares who you think is the best player in the league. The players have a huge amount of respect for Jok, we don’t worship him like you do, but most are in awe of his brilliance. Trolling you fools for rooting against us is part of the game. Accept it.”

Kevin Durant on American sports culture
However, it was not his only participation, since another tweeter He said: “I learned a lot about American sports culture today. Lots of bragging about beating a nation of 6.6 million people in a sport they invented. They act like the Jokic fans were committing treason. We here would never do this to a small Pacific nation in rugby league. We welcome competition.”
That’s when KD “raised his tone” and wrote: “Let’s talk about fan culture that has been created recently. Many huge egos who believe they are the reason for the advancement of a sport. A LOT idolatrya lot hatred y division based on wins and losses, a lot of disrespect towards the work that these incredible athletes are doing, mainly from people who don’t know what it takes to be good at anything more than talk… do something and get out of the way…”
Finally, one user analyzed: “This is what he is talking about It has existed since the beginning of the NBA.Do you think people didn’t love MJ or Bird and it wasn’t divisive back then? I hate to be that person, but it seems like it’s a problem now that players like Giannis and Jokic get the same treatment.”
Durant answered forcefully: “That’s what all you clowns do. They use the players to push their cheesy agendas. This is a family of brothers, which they are not a part of. Now it’s a problem because social media has you clowns walking around with your chests out like you mean something. YOU DON’T! YOUR OPINIONS DON’T MATTER.”
