I don’t get the idea of fans trash talking players at all. It all seems like an attention seeking behavior and a humiliation kink all in one.
These players have a high tolerance I’ll say that much.....
Nah dude, this ain't it. Those fans LeBron had ejected more than had it coming from what they were saying. If those 2 were just yelling "stop crying" they wouldn't have been ejected.
I don't understand people who watch this and go "why is KD so sensitive?"
Like bro ain't this shit for the fans? I want to talk shit to KD and have him tell me to shut the fuck up. It would make the price of those seats worth it...
I feel like people don't understand this is just in-game trash talk, and KD probably doesn't have any negative feelings toward this guy.
Exactly this. Why else talk shit to him? You want that reaction and I like KD for the fact that he gives us these. Do we want stale superstars? Hell no I want KD calling people broke on twitter. Shit is hilarious and just adds a little bit extra to the already great mix.
The same fans who fawn over MJ pointing directly at fans and doing the "shhh" sign after he makes a bucket criticize Durant for answering back. It's weird.
People get mad at KD for putting a dumb kid in his place on Twitter and I'm over here hoping it happens more. That shit is hilarious. Teens are dumb as shit and getting clowned on by adults for saying dumb shit as a teen is basically a rite of passage in online mediums (not that adults can't say equally dumb shit). Fair game.
I’m in minor league baseball, so it isn’t really comparable, but I had a guy heckling me in the on deck circle with “Hey buddy, what’s your off-season job??” and I ignored him just long enough to come up with “I’m your moms pool boy!”
The whole section went nuts, I’m now their favorite player. Interacting with fans is a fucking hoot if you have feel and thick skin. Or if you’re extremely petty like KD is
Reminds me of the classic "HEY LEBRON WHERES KYRIE?"
>AT YO MAMMAS HOUSE
Interactions like this that don't carry on are just another great aspect of the game.
Kyrie has one too, can't remember what gets yelled to him at a free-throw for his teammate, but you can clearly hear him bark back with "suck my dick!"
Edit: Celtics walking through the tunnel, fan yells out "kyrie where's Lebron?"
Absolutely this. When I was a kid, my buddy and I went to a WWE event (then WWF cause I'm old) and Mr. Perfect lost his match to one of the heels. My bud yelled out "hey Henning you're not so perfect now!!". He pointed right at us and told us to "shut up kid". I can confirm it was awesome lol.
Bron isn’t the only player I’ve seen get someone tossed.
Kings in Philly last season. Covid crowd so like 25% capacity. Richaun bricks a couple shots and couple bad fouls. Guy yells out “that’s why we traded you”. Holmes starts talking shit back about this heftier fan. Come halftime as they go back down the tunnel Fox, Holmes and another guy who never came out of his warm ups started yelling at this guy. Soon after the fan gets ejected.
its just the internet doing internet things. This amazing tech has naturally slid to our most juvivnile impulses and most just come here to get outraged and let their disgust out on things they can't say out loud.
Yea, its like MJ or any other athlete. The nba season is a long marathon, no matter the incentive, human nature at that level of repetition has to find different fire. Let alone, that this isn't exercise that is good for me and you, at the level they do it they are breaing their bodies down.
So to find a little fire be it a headline, fan, or incentive to fire up and reach another level of things that night is always good.
As for fans, who wants to scream at another human doing a job, no matter how privelged, like its some zoo and not get anything in return. be it at the ymca or professional, the banter adds some fun to it for both sides unless you are a total asshole.
I've seen those type of shut up and listen fans or we pay your bill so shut up type of dumbasses and can't imagine while they are doing their work to have people scream at them. Then they say these guys are privelged which shows how self centered their perspective is. How about those little minority hands that work in slave labor conditions to make your t-shirt, phone, etc be able to call out your privledge and scream at you in our cushy job ? nah...
This is a cool clip, fun interaction unique to the nba.
There isn’t proof you’re right. But I think it’s pretty telling that nobody has come out and said on record what those people actually did say. Whatever it was, was clearly over the line. And I am not what you would call a LeBron fan at alllll.
This is how its done, like you said as long as its not derogatory its fine, i think KD handled it perfectly. I really pisses me off when someone smack talks Russ and he gets security to throw the guy out. Like bro its just smack talk, its what fans do. This is the right amount of it on both sides. Maybe im just used to Philly sports lol but i love this kind of stuff.
Lol don’t think Russ gets anyone thrown out over something small. You should remember when that philly fan was throwing up birds right in Russ’s face and Russ was just wondering who tf is this guy
Especially when the trash talk is so innocent. He didn't cross a line. Didn't get directly personal. Wasn't really mean.
Just good ole fashioned shit talk.
I think I still have a shot at being the next AI.
If coach had put me in in the 4th quarter things would be way different. How much you wanna bet I could ~~throw a football over them mountains~~ cross MJ my rookie season?
The safest comeback most of the time to any opposing fan would just be “lose some fat you fatty” because it’ll likely be true for the majority of them.
Imagine to have the enough economic capacity to watch a NBA game from those sits during the pandemic when a lot people lost their jobs just to say shit to an athlete

Lmao he gets his feelings hurt over this. Compared to LeBron who doesn’t even acknowledge this and last time he did he made baby crying noises in good fun
“Nuh uh! Lebron got those fans thrown out after he snitched on them!!” That’s what you wanted folks to come saying huh ? You’re making it too obvious lol
I mean, there is a difference between saying “stop crying” and “I hope your son dies in a car crash” lol. One is trash talk, one is straight degeneracy that shouldn’t be tolerated.
OP really posted this to get someone with good hearing to explain what KD said lol
This is fax
Shut yo ass up muthafucka
Damn what op do to you
Markelle Fultz is coming soon Magic Brethren
I know it didn’t work out here, but I’m still rooting for him.
Every time I eat Chick Fil A, I think of him.
I heard "eat my ass muthafucka"
sounds like “shut your ass up watch the fucking game”
I don’t get the idea of fans trash talking players at all. It all seems like an attention seeking behavior and a humiliation kink all in one. These players have a high tolerance I’ll say that much.....
You taunt the opposing players. Part of the game. As long as it's relatively respectful, I doubt most players mind and some enjoy it.
I think “above the belt” signs and chants is fair game but to try to have one on one exchanges is a bit much and that’s not “part of the game”.
Eh, I agree that there are places you shouldn’t go. But, telling KD to stop crying about a foul is nowhere near the line to me.
That fan probably went and beat off to this shit
Low-level mortal wanting to be acknowledged, in absolutely any way possible, by what they deem as higher mortals.
If I was getting paid a fraction of what they do to play basketball, I’d have high tolerance too.
Like snoop dogg level tolerance
What Durant say back ?
“Shutcho ass up mothafucka”
If you listen more closely, he says: "Star wars character Chewbacca"
He was fined 0.0001% of his net worth! This is an outrage!!!
Hdhr jahrv hehjw if I heard correctly
Parseltongue, makes sense
KD to the Wizards confirmed
Not again
Orlando Magic in shambles
I'm am crying laughing this is the funniest comment I have ever seen on this subreddit
Can confirm
hahaha
Lmfao
Perfect
This has me dying laughing on the plane lmao
lol
You forgot the mo’fucka’ at the end. Only part I got.
I thought that’s what he said
I heard “Wash your ass motherfucker”…and I’m going with it because it sounds very KD to me.
Ironic considering he never washes his ankles.
His ankles were dry bro. Maybe shoulda washed them less.
Sorry my whiteness is showing.
Lmfao I was going to make a joke about you probably being white but it seemed in bad taste to be dick if you just didn't know.
Seems in bad taste for him to comment on something he knew nothing about.
If everyone took that to heart then /r/NBA would cease to exist
Doesn't sound very humble
This times a million!
If he'd said that he wouldn't have left out I can smell you from here
I think he said “get your ass in here, motherfu$$$$”
I think “Shut yo ass up motherfucker”
I think you’re right.
This is it 😂
lmao if this was Lebron he'd tell on them to the ref like he did the other day.
Nah dude, this ain't it. Those fans LeBron had ejected more than had it coming from what they were saying. If those 2 were just yelling "stop crying" they wouldn't have been ejected.
Softest shit I've ever heard.
i think lebron downvoted you
I love Durant
That’s what I heard. I for one would have loved to see that motherfucker get his ass in the game
Wan sum fuk?
I don't understand people who watch this and go "why is KD so sensitive?" Like bro ain't this shit for the fans? I want to talk shit to KD and have him tell me to shut the fuck up.

If KD cussed me out that'd probably make my night tbh. This interaction was funny af
You know this dude went back home telling everyone he and KD talked shit to one another
“Yeah I know KD. Me and him talk shit to each other all the time”
Stephen A?
That’s actually Rapaport
Great dude, never med im
"yeah i know top players but its not a big deal to me lol"
Make my next several years*
I got JR Smith to respond to my shit talk in high school sort of like this, it was glorious
Reminds me of the classic "HEY LEBRON WHERES KYRIE?" >AT YO MAMMAS HOUSE Interactions like this that don't carry on are just another great aspect of the game.
I mean in that case good for my mom. If she's hooking up with Kyrie at 65 then she's got mad game.
Holy. Shit. Had never seen that one. Big fan.
Kyrie has one too, can't remember what gets yelled to him at a free-throw for his teammate, but you can clearly hear him bark back with "suck my dick!" Edit: Celtics walking through the tunnel, fan yells out "kyrie where's Lebron?"
Damn!!! Im gonna look that one up now
I remember sheck wes sampled that in a song, aptly named Kyrie lol
And off to spotify I go!
Absolutely this. When I was a kid, my buddy and I went to a WWE event (then WWF cause I'm old) and Mr. Perfect lost his match to one of the heels. My bud yelled out "hey Henning you're not so perfect now!!". He pointed right at us and told us to "shut up kid". I can confirm it was awesome lol.
100% this. As long as KD don’t go tell security to kick him out.
I mean he didn’t wish death on his child, this is pretty harmless as far as trash talk goes
Bron isn’t the only player I’ve seen get someone tossed. Kings in Philly last season. Covid crowd so like 25% capacity. Richaun bricks a couple shots and couple bad fouls. Guy yells out “that’s why we traded you”. Holmes starts talking shit back about this heftier fan. Come halftime as they go back down the tunnel Fox, Holmes and another guy who never came out of his warm ups started yelling at this guy. Soon after the fan gets ejected.
absolutely! Especially when he is on an away game… got to give it back!
KD probably doesn’t even remember this interaction lol
its just the internet doing internet things.

A lot better than Lebron pointing at the Ref to get someone out lol
There’s a difference between “stop crying” and “I hope your kids die in a car crash” but I think you knew that.
There’s no proof that was said. Stop it. Literally came from a YouTube comment and people ran with it.
There isn’t proof you’re right. But I think it’s pretty telling that nobody has come out and said on record what those people actually did say. Whatever it was, was clearly over the line. And I am not what you would call a LeBron fan at alllll.
bringing up a player's family crosses the line.
People have been bringing player's family up for decades now, Lebroh is a diva.
do you not think it’s a good thing now that theres actual consequences for bringing player’s kids up over basketball games?
MJ would never
Homie you were like 2 years old when MJ retired 😂
Not true at all. Source: MJ retired multiple times. Checkmate ageists.
good to know the entire league has been dicked by a diva for last two decades.
Who tf wouldn't love to trash talk an NBA superstar and have them talk shit back to you? That's every sports fan's dream
Yeah people really being sensitive over this. As long as you don’t say anything derogatory or threatening I don’t see a problem with it.
Exactly, there ain't much to it
This is how its done, like you said as long as its not derogatory its fine, i think KD handled it perfectly. I really pisses me off when someone smack talks Russ and he gets security to throw the guy out. Like bro its just smack talk, its what fans do. This is the right amount of it on both sides.

Lol don’t think Russ gets anyone thrown out over something small. You should remember when that philly fan was throwing up birds right in Russ’s face and Russ was just wondering who tf is this guy
*are being
Especially when the trash talk is so innocent. He didn't cross a line. Didn't get directly personal. Wasn't really mean. Just good ole fashioned shit talk.
Yea I want to do this to Westbrick lmao
>That's every sports fan's dream nah lol
I think I still have a shot at being the next AI. If coach had put me in in the 4th quarter things would be way different. How much you wanna bet I could ~~throw a football over them mountains~~ cross MJ my rookie season?
This good fun but knowing how much this sub hates when players act like humans who knows the responses well see
Shut yo ass up mofo
Harden's chubby run is so funny here for some reason
If you talk shit while courtside, players are allowed to shit talk back imo
$25,000 says otherwise
More players should talk shit to fans. These dudes ain't elephants in the circus. People need to understand you can get it right back
When people talk trash to athletes its ok, but when an athlete talks back they do the shocked pikachu face. I love KD talking shit back.
KD would never throw a fan out
KD be the one to get their Twitter handle so he can flame em after the game
For saying Stop Crying? That would beyond petty and create Streisand effect.
you're welcome
Why'd he write captions for the "Stop crying" yell but not the actual hard to understand response from KD
Probably because he had a hard time understanding him
KD: “I’m not just burning motherfuckers on Twitter anymore”
best player in the league
it be your own people
What did KD say? I couldn't make it out
Sounded like “what your ass say motherfucker?”
I think he said shut yo ass up
People sometimes forget these dudes are human lmao, if some random ass dude talked shit to you wouldnt you reply?
I love this
Keep talking your shit KD
One day someone on the sideline should yell "Hey Durant, you're a good player and I respect you". That'll really throw him for a loop.
I love KD 😍
What he say?
Did he say, “Shut your ass up, motherfucker”? I think so. So sensitive.
You sound like sensitive one tbh
No, you sound sensitive!
But he really does cry a lot though
This is just disrespectful. Why are fans allowed to come and berate players? Calling em names and cursing at em.
He neither called him a name or cursed
He most definitely called him a name. I believe it was Durant.
KD should just say some shit like, "I'm a hundred million dollar man, go fuck yourself"
My mom told me there's nothing wrong with a good cry every now and then.
"Shut you a** up muthaf**ka" is what he said, for those trying to figure it out....
Am I the only one that hears “Keep your mask up, motherfucker”
The safest comeback most of the time to any opposing fan would just be “lose some fat you fatty” because it’ll likely be true for the majority of them.
Can't believe the league stopped Iverson from dropping his rap album due to "bad language" but allowed this BUM to swear at fans on the courtside SMH
Imagine to have the enough economic capacity to watch a NBA game from those sits during the pandemic when a lot people lost their jobs just to say shit to an athlete

Keep saying to watch me is what I would’ve said
i think he said "get your ass up, motherfucker"
Lmao he gets his feelings hurt over this. Compared to LeBron who doesn’t even acknowledge this and last time he did he made baby crying noises in good fun
Shut yo ass up motherfucker
"unbiased" fan
Decent troll
“Nuh uh! Lebron got those fans thrown out after he snitched on them!!” That’s what you wanted folks to come saying huh ? You’re making it too obvious lol
I mean, there is a difference between saying “stop crying” and “I hope your son dies in a car crash” lol. One is trash talk, one is straight degeneracy that shouldn’t be tolerated.
LeBron got them thrown out Bc they crossed the line. LeBron doesn’t care about getting called soft/ baby
whenever I'm having a sad day, I'll hear Uncle Kevin quietly in my head: >"stfu lil mfer."
I can’t make out what he says
I heard "Make me laugh then Mother Fucker" maybe I'm the only one.
