Kevin Durant tells CJ McCollum to get out of his feelings about the Demarcus Cousins signing. "Don't worry about what happens at the top"

....

CJ "We were right there below number 1 and number 2"

KD: "And how'd you play? ... Like an 8 seed"

....

KD: "So you didnt want Nurk?"

Bet he wouldnt bring that same energy when talking to Dame.

Talking shit about the Blazers, even throwing Nurk under the bus. Granted, CJ makes fun of the Blazers every now and then as well, but still.

I also think CJ is basically setting himself up here, while at the same time he couldve easily shut KD up. Dude is being witty while standing on Steph's shoulders.

Would love to hear Dames reaction. Not too happy with how CJ handles it either.

 

Durant is the biggest bitch ass in NBA History.

 

Added some quotes to the OP.

 

Durant has turned into a giant douche who goes out of his way to defend himself and attack anyone he thinks has a problem with him. For gods sake the guy gets into random fights online all the time.

 

I say turned into because I see it as coinciding with his leaving OKC.

 

Im not sure if Im more annoyed by KD being all kinds of tough now, or CJ just going along with it a bit.

 

I think leaving for GS proved who he really
was and is. No he’s just louder about it all the time...

 

Well KD was the guest on the podcast. CJ invited him to be his guest. So I am sure he has to keep it cool. Not like KD randomly walked up to CJ and start talking shit. It's all off season fun and game.

 

Durant was already a douche in OKC. A lot of people cluelessly assumed his generally quiet demeanor meant he was a good guy. I always saw him as the prick he's become more comfortable showing himself to be.

Also:

Fuck Kevin Durant

 

Says the guy who joined a team that had already made it to the top without any help from him.

BNM

 

How annoying was it that CJ hardly stood up for himself, dude sounds defeated. Kind of hope they can swing him to Minnesota for Butler.

 

CJ is soft like those crepes. Always been soft. The cool guy facade was easy to read through, especially when it seemingly appeared out of nowhere once he got playing time.

 

If you are the host of a show there is a professionalism and standard that must be held.
I’m fine with how he handled it. We don’t need CJ being the up and coming douche do we?

 

Except it didn't.
There was a report during CJ's rookie year that this 'cool guy facade' you call it rubbed Aldridge the wrong way in practice.
CJ's always had a little swag/cockiness to him. Going back to college.

This topic always comes up once a summer and it has to be pointed out to people(not just you) that CJ has always been that way. Then people are 'oh'. Last year I provided the article, this year I just don't care enough to find it again.

 

When were we right behind number 1 and number 2?

 

It's interesting--he's got a rep for being a real smack talker on the court, but I find CJ's podcast to be so vanilla-bland as to be unlistenable. I can understand him wanting to bring a sense of professionalism, but you compare him to, say, Jalen Rose, and it's not even close. Rose is super smart and really funny.

Durant is easily the biggest "get" CJ has had on his podcast, so I can understand him not wanting to alienate him. Durant wants a nice, easy softball interview, which is why he's been on Bill Simmons so often. I enjoy Simmons, but the message is clearly out there that if you want Durant to come on the show you basically have to coddle him.
