DM72 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2015/10/5/9454515/stephen-a-smith-kevin-durant-first-take-rant-threat-nba-what-even I saw the whole rant on First Take this morning. He and Skip, IMO, went out of their way to make Durant look bad. I think Stephen A crossed a line that you never cross by saying in response to Durant saying that no one in his family has ever talked to Stephen A, "I've talked to your mom." And at the end, he looks dead into the camera and says to Durant, "You don't want to make an enemy out of me." At one time Stephen A might have been a very good journalist, but now he has gotten to know these athletes on a way too personal level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Up next on "Real Housewives of ESPN", Stephen threatens Kevin Durant, and Skip gets caught with another man. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DM72 Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Why are they ranting against Durant? It started when Durant called Stephen A a liar for saying, "According to my sources, Durant wants to go to LA next year." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corcaigh Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 It started when Durant called Stephen A a liar for saying, "According to my sources, Durant wants to go to LA next year." Stephen A Smith is upset that it was exposed that his "sources" are actually his fertile imagination and nothing more. If he had a genuine source he would laugh it off.

If he had a genuine source he would laugh it off. Im curious as to why he didn't. Could've let it roll off his shoulders. Instead he cuts an nWo promo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 He sounds like a creepy stalker threatening to reveal details of their personal lives. Here's is a quote from his rant: "We really want to go here? We really want to start something with me? You sure about that? I just want people to think about that because what I'm saying is this. How many times Skip Bayless over have you seen me over the years sit here and say and to me we getting into peoples personal life? We ain't going there. We ain't touching... we just talking about their game" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 He admits in the rant it's made up speculation. He says blatantly "I don't have to talk to someone you know or have a source to talk about you" Case closed. Exactly like Durant said. You may have spoken to his mother or talked to Durant but nobody is feeding him info on Dursnt's plans like he originally implied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Can't wait to see Durants response. He should do it in a dingy boiler room somewhere and post it on YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 How the **** do Skip and Stephen even have jobs on ESPN? What exactly do they add in knowledge?

DM72 Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 And Stephen A better watch it or he might lose all his contacts. One thing I know is that today's NBA players seem to stick together. Putting Durant on blast on national TV might not have been a smart move on his part. Stephen A might think he's one of them, but he's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Can't wait to see Durants response. He should do it in a dingy boiler room somewhere and post it on YouTubeI love this idea, especially if he's flanked on either side by Ibaka and Westbrook as a show of force. Then maybe Tony Parker and Aldridge sneak up behind them and bash their skulls in with steel chairs. What is this about? They're working Stephen A's buddy Skip Bayless. God damn skip Bayless and the San Antonio Spurs, those cheap shot ****s. They cleared the boiler room, Durant is down, in slowly walks Stephen A, smug ass look he always wears, walks up to a down Durant, pulls out a sledgehammer and just bashes him. "I told you that you didn't want to make enemies with me Kevin. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I TOLD YOU TWICE!" Smashes Durant with the sledgehammer again. Then He gets Durant in the Ankle Lock and twists the hell out of Durant's recovering foot. That would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch a lot of (or hardly any, really) NBA, so I don't know about what's going on here. But this is exactly what I thought as an outsider.

You may have spoken to his mother or talked to Durant but nobody is feeding him info on Dursnt's plans like he originally implied Well no that part is true. A lot of people don't get how journalism works or how sources work. I'll defend him in that but that's about it. Otherwise, a clown rant. He didn't say I don't have to have a source, I think he just said I don't have to talk directly to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
