Kevin Durant engages with fans — and an occasional writer — on leadership, Kobe and Twitter

Kevin Durant is all about the game. And that includes engaging with basketball fans, like he did for two hours Sunday night and Monday morning when he answered questions and parried with fans at the NBA on leadership, his “struggles”, Kobe Bryant and Twitter in general. And yes, an analyst slipped into the conversation. Some of them are informative, some dismissive, some funny.
It was one of the most active sessions KD has engaged in since joining the Nets…
There are a lot of buzzwords in basketball that confuse me, like leadership and playmaking. Can I have a definition please?? https://t.co/sxk5y3gfq4

I am an employee and one of the team guys. Some times I’m ahead, some times I’m not. The main message comes from coach imo https://t.co/EqxQYrkhQq

I’m a little jaded by all of this, I thought your court game dictated the narrative, but I didn’t realize you had to sell your game to the media as well as your personality for a story to really hit https:// t. co/E9nVymFrNm

It’s their own personal network, of course people will want to show their followers how smart and cool they are. This is the first time people will actually listen to them https://t.co/h6cxsarS9Y

KD closes its back-and-forth by retweeting a fan’s summary…
Why are you on twitter? Why are you responding to a man who doesn’t even know you? The reason in your own tweet. It’s entertaining. The man who uses the application what it is intended for and you question it?
