Stephen A Smith threatens Kevin Durant

[longislandcuse]

Whoa...

 

[Guinness]

Dude is a total PoS.

Both Smith and Durant need thicker skin. I like both actually but Durant has really become a whiner with regards to the media. He should just ignore Stephen A, who cares?

I don't blame SAS for responding, but he probably could have responded better lol. This is just a dumb situation all around though.

 

[Cowtown]

SAS is a self-promoting gasbag who seems to think his fulminations are more important than the players or the games. I stopped that after about a minute of his phony indignation.

 

[longislandcuse]

Is it just me or is it incredibly awkward when Skip jumps in to defend SAS? Even more awkward when Skip weighs in on racial things making it bizarrely well known that he's indeed, white.

Probably the worst part of this is how ESPN is clearly condoning, if not encouraging, it.

Did anyone make it to the end of this?

Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless are wrestling heels who troll fans. I mean that statement from SAS is him cutting a promo on Durant. ESPN doesn't care and they clearly hate their audience. With that said just don't watch but SAS is a real jagoff for threatening Durant to not make an enemy of him. SAS makes 3 million from ESPN he may have some power but if this beef continued Durant would win.

ESPN has been the drama queen network since tiger woods got ironed. It's a sports TMZ. Used to be somewhere I went to get scores and relevant sports info. Went the way of MTV...

It's not like I don't get why they did it, I just think it makes them look terrible.

But this company has employed Stephen A and Skip for how long, so I already know how terrible they can be.

 

[OrangeDW]

Stephen A is justified in defending himself, but he made a complete clown out of himself with the way he did it. Laughable, really.

I only watch Espn if there is a game on, otherwise it has become completely unwatchable.

Oh God no.

Oh God no.

I couldn't listen anymore. Why it takes someone ten minutes to say that they are offended, is beyond me.

I was just eating lunch and listening to the Lebatard show and they did this hilarious bit where they cut that up and made it into a movie preview. Really funny.

Haha, I must listen to that!

I'm trying to find it but have to wait until the show is done I think.

Bravo Skip!!

No way that tongue could go in deeper
