The post Rockets' Kevin Durant ruthlessly eviscerates fan for 'diminishing his greatness' appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The two things Kevin Durant doesn't appreciate on social media are trolls and people trying to disrespect his game. The Houston Rockets forward ran into one of those recently, and he didn't let the social media user get off the hook easily. Durant is always going to clap back when he gets the chance, and that's what happened in this situation.

The altercation started when someone originally wrote on X, formerly Twitter, "The last time that Kevin Durant led his team in FGA per game was 2018."
A user doubled down on that post, saying, "Greatest scorer ever my a–. Yall like efficiency more than what's needed to win."
There's no surprise that Durant didn't catch the tweet from the user, and when he did, he called him out , running through some of his accomplishments throughout his career.
"30k points on low fga. Ima coaches dream. Dime dropper, I mastered scoring at 24 years old man. Give it a rest, I don't care about being the best scorer ever. You are diminishing my all time greatness callin me that," Durant wrote.

Durant is known as one of the greatest scorers in the league, and he's been doing it since he got into the league. It's even more impressive that the doesn't have to take many field goal attempts to score a lot of points. That shows that Durant is efficient at what he does best, and that's getting buckets.
Kevin Durant ready to help Rockets next season
Durant said to that social media user that he is a coach's dream, and he isn't lying, because the Rockets probably feel like they hit the jackpot this offseason acquiring him. The Rockets surprised many people last season when they finished No. 2 in the Western Conference, but they were not able to get out of the first round of the playoffs, losing to the Golden State Warriors .
Adding a player like Durant can take them to the next level and get them over the hump, and they should once again be near the top of the West. He also has some key players around him, such as Fred VanVleet , Amen Thompson , and Alperen Sengun , who will relieve the pressure off of him.

Head coach Ime Udoka seems excited to have Durant on board.
"Just like all our vets did; come in and impart wisdom, and teach his experience with these guys, and it'll be invaluable for these guys to see and learn from him," Durant said.
