Durant sets record straight: This is the real me, ‘The guy in OKC was the phony’

Is it me, or is being Kevin Durant not as much fun as it used to be?

The Instagram feud with a high school boy.

The contentious appearance on C.J. McCollum’s podcast that spilled over into a Twitter squabble.

The running insult-fest with Chris Paul’s brother during Game 2 of the Western Conference finals.

The 75 percent increase in technical fouls last season.

There’s a lot to like about Durant. His philanthropy. His game. His skills, and the way he applies them in a team context. And for good measure, his philanthropy.
