    Stephen A. to KD and other media who have criticized him on First Take: I AM A BLACK MAN!! COME UP TO ME DURING A GAME!

    No joke...

    Stephen A. to KD on First Take: YOU DO NOT WANT TO MAKE AN ENEMY OUT OF ME. TRUST ME!

    Smith just dropped an atomic bomb on Durant. Smith would be wise to stay away from OKC.

    Someone is lying. I find it interesting that Durant decided to make this personal.

    SAS has said though he didn't get his information from Durant's camp.

    Stephen A. and Skip are sounding like a jilted lovers on first take right now in relation to this Kevin Durant situation.

    It's funny because not even a week ago, SAS on First Take when they were taking about the Derrick Rose "I'm thinking about my Free Agency even though it's 2 years away" comments, no less, was saying how "No one can say anything bad about Kevin Durant."

    Lo and behold, here we are today.

    Geez ESPN is such a joke. They're seriously a bunch of amateurs with Disney behind them.

    ESPN needs to suspend SAS before players stop talking to them at all

    Stephen Smith has done Houston a favor. It's mano a mano situation now. So it will take a lump in the throat for Durant to sign with either LA, NY, or OKC now. Limiting the options down.

    Why he is sensitive to the media rumors is silly. And his ambush against the media is in the short term cool, but in the long term a terrible move. They can end an image, and sometimes a career, because at some point he will make a wrong turn, we all do, and the media will crush him more now than ever. It's naive of Durant to think otherwise. It shouldn't be that way, but it is. Also, while Stephen A. Smith is not perfect, he is a communication master and that's the last person you want to get in a squabble with because they play it like chess and get u to back yourself into corners.

    First Take is just too embarrassed to admit that they make up 85% of the "insider information" that makes it to air. Bayless and SAS garner viewership doing hot take BS, they have no more insider information than you or I.

    They have to fill time everyday regardless of whether there is actual news or not. So I get why they make stuff up, it just seems silly for him to indignant about it.

    WTF is wrong with Stephen A?? Don't get mad at KD because he'd rather team up with the Beard next summer.

    This is all for show. ESPN is probably loving this. Boost in attention and ratings. SAS's entire schtick is just part of his lame "brand".

    KD would be wise to just ignore the whole thing and keep quiet.

    I wish ESPN reporters would have to state there source like I have to in school

    Apparently you can talk all kinds of reckless as long as "my sources say" is behind it

    I think Stephen A. needs to reveal his source.

    HAHA, what a loser. Those vids were just two middle aged loud mouths sucking each other off on tv. I hope the players blacklist their stupid show. Actually I hope they go on the show and just answer with yes/no ambiguity LOL!!!

    While SAS was worshipping himself this morning, KD was opening a school bball court in OKC for children.
