KEVIN DURANT FIRES BACK AT SCOTTIE PIPPEN'S CRITICISM OF HIS TEAMWORK
"Once again, I don’t even talk like this…plus I don’t have a relationship with Jackie for us to have in depth conversations about my intentions as a basketball player. I get she plays an opinion based sport but she framed this like we are friends. We are not," he tweeted.
Houston Chronicle sports editor Reid Laymance suggested Durant try to befriend MacMullan. The Nets star responded.
"Congrats my g. Enjoy that."
Durant has come after media members in recent weeks over Twitter. He accused ESPN’s Jay Williams of fabricating a story about comparing Durant to Giannis Antetokounmpo. He called Williams’ story about Durant’s alleged response a "f—kin lie."
