Let it be known that Kevin Durant hears all and sees all.
That’s possibly the only plausible explanation for how, out of all the infinite Tweets in the world, Durant saw this one posted by an old high school basketball opponent of his, Nate Flowers.
Flowers posted these two innocuous Tweets.
Man I could play in the league.

Tragically, Nate engaged with Durant.

And here’s the masterstroke.
@waldorfsfinest yea that means U got cooked while playing ok defense
— Kevin Durant (@KDTrey5) March 10, 2015
Somehow, the burn on Tony Allen is probably the best thing about all of this.
If there is a lesson to be had out of all this, it is that Kevin Durant is out there and he is, without a doubt, listening.
