“Twitter would be abuzz if it was LeBron James stinking it up” Shannon Sharpe comes for Kevin Durant’s head after disastrous outing against Celtics 

Kevin Durant and LeBron James

There are no two ways in stating that LeBron James and Kevin Durant are two of the most-looked after superstars in modern-day NBA. Having won multiple championships, both these stars were expected to meet in the NBA Finals but the reality has in turn been different. On one hand, where King James couldn’t make the playoffs, Durant is on the verge of suffering via the most brutal playoff defeat. 

On the same note Shannon Sharpe wants Kevin Durant to pay for the below-par performance against the Boston Celtics as he stated that things would have been completely different if it was LeBron James in place of KD at this stage in the first-round series. Surely, a take you should not miss.

An animated Sharpe sat down with co-host Skip Bayless while discussing the Celtics vs Nets series on Undisputed, “I can just imagine what the talk shows, the debate shows and how twitter would be abuzz if this was LeBron James, if this was LeBron Ramone James and he was stinking it up. He left what the elephant left on the showground. ‘Oh, he ain’t got no help. It’s Kyrie. They’re not gelling.'”

The former NFL player does hold a strong point as LeBron James was criticized throughout the season. However, with Kevin Durant, Nets majorly suffering against the Boston Celtics, there have been shades thrown at the former MVP but not to the same extent as to what King James have suffered.

“It’s not LeGone James, because his team missed the playoffs, missed the playoffs? I’ll take this over that. The legacy that is permanently tarnished is LeGone’s. Can’t even make the playoffs?”

That being said, Kevin Durant has finally suffered a clean sweep for the first time in his career. Will we witness the Boston Celtics finally making a deep run in the playoff after this callosal performance? What changes will the Brooklyn Nets make after an unfortunate exit from the first-round series? Remains to be eagerly seen.
