- Durant's comments downplayed the contributions of former teammates Klay Thompson and Draymond Green, noting Thompson was never an MVP candidate and highlighting their statistics.
- Both Thompson and Green publicly responded, with Thompson asking Durant if he was "good" and Green joking that Durant might have used a burner account.
