Nets star Kevin Durant and ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith got into another feud on Twitter on Thursday afternoon, this time about something Smith said on Wednesday’s First Take.
In the clip reposted by Durant, Smith argues that Michael Jordan changed “the game for the worse,” while players like Steph Curry are changing it for the better. The longtime ESPN analyst explained that the reasoning behind his statement is because Jordan individualized the game so much to the point that the NBA’s focus wasn’t about teamwork.
This take—like various other Smith takes—riled up fans on Twitter, including Durant.
