The Brooklyn Nets won a hard-fought battle against the Orlando Magic in their last matchup. The game ended 109-102 behind Kevin Durant’s amazing performance. What caught the NBA world off guard was Durant’s post-game interview which seemed a little too generic, even to Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.

The Nets put all their eggs in the Kevin Durant basket as he blasted off for a 45-point performance to take down the Orlando Magic. And if it wasn’t for KD, the Nets probably would’ve lost the game.

LeBron James had to react to Kevin Durant’s viral interview

The Orlando Magic were clicking on all cylinders as three out of their five starters crossed the 20-point threshold. Gary Harris missed that mark by 1 point, scoring 19 points for the game. But it was all Kevin Durant for this one.

Even Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James took notice of Kevin Durant’s short interview after the game. He tweeted, “KD NOT NICE!!! SHEESH.” And some fans also made sure to tweet KD’s unusual interview.
