The Hall of Famer has repeatedly called out the former Warriors player for his choice, going as far as to call him a ‘Bus Rider’. It has been almost a year since Barkley commented on KD. Since then, Durant has fired back with several remarks of his own. However, the beef between the two doesn’t seem to be nearing its end as the duo recently got engaged in yet another verbal dispute.
KD recently reignited the feud when he publicly slammed Barkley for his ‘Bus Rider‘ remark during an interview. This comes in just days before the NBA forward took another jab at the Phoenix Suns legend.

It seems like Kevin Durant is gradually running out of patience as he countered Charles Barkley’s comments twice in just a matter of days. The 2x NBA champion recently retweeted an interview given by Chuck where the basketball veteran had quite a few things to say. When asked to give his thoughts on Durant, Barkley took a shot by calling him a great but sensitive player.
He said, “He’s very sensitive. Great player. He’s part of that generation who think he can’t be criticized. He’s never looked in the mirror and says ‘Man, is that a fair criticism?'”

Durant is on the roll
Several days before calling out Barkley on Twitter, KD fired back via a recent interview with the ‘Boardroom’ podcast.

I feel like the only reason why that kept traction was because that was about me specifically…Charles Barkley said that about me, disrespecting my game as a part of the storyline.”
