Kevin Durant may have had a terrible playoff series against the Boston Celtics, but he has taken that result off his mind now. He has been posting tweets pretty regularly now and had gone to sunny Greece to watch a Euro league match. In short, Durant has taken his team’s result off his mind for now. On his Twitter, he posts his reaction to other tweets and media, such as pictures and videos. He got in trouble one time recently for that, but that’s now the past.

On his Twitter, he has recently reacted to a video by Bleacher Report. The Bleacher Report has been for some time, releasing a video series called “Portal”. It is a 3D animated show where we see basketball legends of the past and current players compete in 1 vs 1 matchups. Hence, there have been videos like ” Larry Bird vs Kevin Durant”, ” Joel Embiid vs Charles Barkley “, ” Kyrie Irving vs Allen Iverson” etc.

So, in accordance to that, they have recently released a video called, ” Draymond Green vs Prime Dennis Rodman 1 vs 1″. Both are very good defensively and are students of the game. Rodman was a bit weak offensively while Green is great there. Rodman, though, was a master of the rebound. He apparently studied the ball rotations of the basketball to understand how to do it precisely.

So, Kevin Durant tweeted out “It’ll take 6 days to finish this game”. The tweet references the defensive abilities both possess. Durant, especially, knows what skills Draymond possesses as both were teammates in the Warriors before.
