The Kevin Durant haters have come out of the woodwork once again after discussions about his unceremonious exit from Oklahoma City were thrust back into the public consciousness via KD's testy Twitter exchange with former Thunder center Kendrick Perkins. Chief among those haters is Undisputed's Shannon Sharpe, who was one syllable short of calling Durant a NFSW insult on Friday's show.

Durant once again brought his decision to leave the Thunder for the Golden State Warriors back into the national spotlight when he took the former Thunder center Perkins to task over the former's place in OKC history as compared to Russell Westbrook and the latter's poor production on those teams.

You've probably already taken a side in this Hatfield/McCoy rivalry here, but Durant was objectively funnier. Therefore, by the rules of Twitter beefs, he is the winner of this round.

Durant might have had good intentions with his move to Golden State, but he isn't going to ever truly get the "bandwagon" trolls off of his back unless he wins a couple championships in Brooklyn. Maybe then, and only then, will Hall of Fame tight ends stop almost calling him some nasty words on FCC airwaves.
