NFL Hall of Famer Fires Back at Kevin Durant For Dragging Him Under The Bus ‘For What Stephen A.’ Said

Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe tried to set the records straight while addressing Kevin Durant and his premature criticism. The 3-time Super Bowl champion believes that his opinions towards players are strong and not malicious. Sharpe adds that he feels it is his occupation as an analyst to give his opinions and point out the wrong things.

During a recent segment of the FS1 UNDISPUTED show, the former Broncos TE reveals how all the players he critiques consider his words to be strong and not unreasonable. He shares that his problem with the Brooklyn Nets small forward is his notion that he is a non-basketball athlete and has no prior knowledge of the NBA. Sharpe adds that Durant believes all of the analyst’s knowledge comes from Twitter.

While addressing Durant, he states, “No KD, I was watching games without sound, when you was like 6. Cause I got kids near your age. I have been watching TV and playing the game for a lot longer…damn near longer as you were alive.”

It is with his premature criticism that Sharpe seems to be annoyed. He believes while stating, “I got nothing with what he said. It was like he was taking a shot at Stephen A. and threw me and you in.”
