Kevin Durant absolutely roasted Scottie Pippen for saying he ‘didn’t know how to play team basketball’

Kevin Durant didn’t hold back on Scottie Pippen. At all.

Whew. You’d best not cross Kevin Durant. Because, if you do, he’ll probably embarrass you on the internet.

Scottie Pippen is finding that out the hard way right now.

In an interview with GQ’s Tyler Ricky Tynes, Pippen called Durant out for not being able to lead the Brooklyn Nets past the Milwaukee Bucks to the Eastern Conference Finals. He said Durant didn’t know how to play “team basketball” and criticized him for not playing like LeBron James.

He said Durant was a better scorer than James, but said he’d yet to pass him because he didn’t know how to use the team around him as well. And he also said James would’ve figured out a way to beat the Bucks.

Of course, Durant didn’t take kindly to that. At all. And rightfully so — he did everything he could do to get his team to the point they got to including playing one of the best playoff games you’ll ever see.

So, naturally, Durant responded on Twitter. And it was quite the response. He called Pippen out for quitting on his own team in the middle of a game.

He brought up that time Pippen refused to play on a final possession for the Bulls in a Game 7 because Phil Jackson drew up a play for Tony Kukoc instead of him.

He also brought up the fact that Pippen rehabbed a back injury through the regular season instead of the offseason because of a contract dispute. And he threw the @ in there to make sure Pippen saw it.

Whew, buddy. Talk about petty. Hopefully, Pippen doesn’t log on anytime soon.
