Kevin Durant Is ‘Jealous’ of Lakers Star LeBron – Expert Makes Huge Claim

Kevin Durant made a few interesting comments on LeBron James and experts are convinced that he is jealous of the Lakers star.

NBA expert Chris Broussard believes that Kevin Durant is irritated by LeBron and the attention he gets from media members. Durant talked about LeBron saying it is toxic to play around him, mostly because the media praises him. When LeBron James was asked about Durant’s comments, he asked for the full context of the conversation.

Broussard went on The Herd, and talked about Durant’s jealousy.

“I think Kevin Durant wanted to be critical of LeBron. But he wanted to hide behind criticizing the media. If that atmosphere around LeBron is toxic, it’s because the franchise bends to LeBron’s will – whether it’s the owner or the president or the coach – they have to answer to some degree to LeBron. If it’s toxic, that’s why, it’s not because of the media,” the expert said.

Durant has involved himself in a controversy with the media in several occasions. Last season he made fake Twitter account and responded to fans who criticized his contract with the Golden State Warriors.

Broussard used the word ‘jealousy’ in order to explain Durant’s comments on King James.

“A lot of it came from jealousy, because he feels the media doesn’t give him a fair shake. The reason KD get’s criticized by the media is for what? Having a burner account, telling a fan to shut the heck up at a game, those are the things you’re getting criticized for, he said.

LeBron talked about Durant after the Lakers game against the San Antonio Spurs. Broussard said that match was Michael Jordan-esque.

“The way he played last night, it reminded me of some of the games Michael Jordan used to play. In the first three quarters, Jordan would get everybody involved, let them do their thing, let them score – he would score his points but he would take a step back. But in the fourth quarter he would take over, and that’s what LeBron did.”
