After prominently featuring Kyrie Irving in the final run of “Game of Zones,” Bleacher Report has picked up where it left off — poking fun at the Brooklyn Nets — with its new show.
Bleacher Report revealed it’s first episode of “Role Players” on Saturday, but instead of making fun of Irving, Kevin Durant was the butt of the joke this time.
Brooklyn fans likely knew well before Durant was in town that the superstar tends to be interactive on social media, sometimes getting into sparring matches with fans. That was the focus of the first episode of “Role Players,” named “Block Mirrors,” playing off the hit Netflix show “Black Mirror”:
