Kevin Durant Doesn't Get the Scrutiny LeBron Gets for Being a Coach Killer | THE ODD COUPLE 

One of the craziest firing was the dwane casey one, they cut him right after winning coach of the year 😂

We didn't forget how KD and Kyrie said in Brooklyn they don't need a coach.

Detroit gave Monty 85 million over 7 years? These coaches got a hell of a racket going. 🤣

“Bradly beal always hurt” Lol i mean did the suns not know that before signing dude 🤣🤣🤣

5 coaches in 18 months, KD hate coaches. Nash, Vaughn, Monty, Vogel now Mike B.

Aye....shoutout to Monty Williams for getting that Stimulus package

NBA coaches have limited influence and are usually saddled with unrealistic expectations. That being said, working a few months or maybe a year, then collecting on a multimillion dollar contract from home isn't such a bad deal.

Give KD that same energy as Lebron. The coaching issue with the Lakers isn't a matter of Lebron being a coach killer. It's an organization issue. The Lakers fired Vogel because he and Westbrook had issues. Not because of Lebron. The lakers didn't even tell Vogel. He found out from the media. The lakers have been firing coaches consistently since 2011 when Phil Jackson left. Lebron wasn't a laker from 2011 to 2018. When kobe was still playing for the lakers, they fired Mike Brown in his 2nd season 5 games in. This after he went 41-25 the year before and got them to the 2nd round of the Playoffs. None of these other players get the same energy from the media and it's really not right.

Funny how they dont say Vogel didnt win a bubble championship 🤔

If I'm a GM, why WOULDN'T I keep firing coaches if the media will blame the star player every time ...

KD not in the media making excuses about everybody else but himself tho. And you cant blame KD. He is ALWAYS hoopin

Finally talking about someone other than Bron..... oh, wait.

Tim Duncan only had 1 coach his whole career. Not even Michael Jordan can say that.

Dear Chris, you already have a microphone and capable engineer. 🤫

Because media and podcasts arent talking about Durant 24/7 and Durant isnt calling himself the GOAT on and on.

but K.D. doesnt email MEDIA members telling them to vote for him for MVP & to praise him on the air, so PEOPLE can think hes the GREATEST!💯

Stephen A said on First take today "people call me to hate on Lebron everyday about anything he does but the minute I tell them Kobe did the same thing they will ignore because they like Kobe better as a person" all Bron haters will call him out something if anybody bring up another nba great did sometbing like that or even close the goal post is moved and excuses are made for them

I remember when Cwebb was beefing with don Nelson and they shipped him to the bullets for nothing after giving up penny and like 3 picks for him 🤣 that’d never happen today

It’s a double standard! Everyone judge LeBron James on a different level and makes excuses for other players

I think the nba community will slowly find out that kyrie and Westbrook weren’t the problem. It was Durant.

Bro what’s all this HATE for KD smh

Didn’t Milwaukee fire their championship winning coach 2 years after winning the chip after losing in the first round of the playoffs when Gianni’s was hurt?

Glad somebody is discussing this!

Bro sounded like a seagull for a second 2:47

Lebron is the most hated athlete in the planet. Of course Kd doesn’t get the same scrutiny. When has he ever??? The standards and goal posts are never the same when it comes to LBJ we all know this

Everyone killed LeBron!! Watch them not say sht about KD.

I mean getting a defensive coach for a whole team of no defenders is just stupid 😂

How can you build any chemistry & develop leadership when you have a new coach every season?

KD doesn't get the scrutiny LeBron gets because people care much more about LeBron than KD. LeBron is among the very small number of players in the GOAT conversation. KD is only in that conversation in his own mind. Scrutiny goes to the things we care about.

Y’all don’t see how bad and spineless the front offices are? The don’t have to hire these coaches that aren’t a fit for the teams. Darvin Ham wasn’t the right fit for a team trying to win a chip, Vogel as a defensive coach didn’t have the tools to imprint his plan. These front office hires don’t match the rosters they built.

This message was brought to you by klutch sports.......

Its interesting how people live to disrespect lebron by say kd or curry is better than lebron but yet nobody say anything when kd gets swept and curry dosen't even make the playoffs 🤔

Chris kd hurt your feelings so bad it still hurts years after

We noticed, we just don't have the microphone to announce it like those who CHOSE not to.

The teams remaining were grown organically….the teams who took the shortcut with just signing superstars are all at home

Kevin Durant would be ringless if he hadn't hopped on the Warriors superteam bandwagon. Bozos actually compared him to Lebron

The media unfairly made KD the face of super teams and praised Lebron

Chris still mad he beat LeBron twice in the finals lmao 😂

Players nowadays have no shame, and unfortunately that trickles down to the younger generation.

Ty Adam Silver

KD and LeBron are about to be on combined 12 coaches since 2018 finals. Meanwhile Steph with the same coach for over a decade.

Anytime anyone criticize lebron Broussard always bring up kd. He hates kd

People attribute too much credit to a single player when they win and they place too much blame when things fail. Vogel did not have the right personnel but he clearly did a poor job adjusting his lineup. Refusing to play Bol Bol when Nurk was a flat out cone was crazy. At Bol can score.

When he left the Warriors, then went an kept jumping team to team to where I can't even take him seriously, he's just cool to watch because of how easy he makes it look when he is fully healthy an locked it.

Bron wanted Spoelstra gone after year 1

I’m done, these dude make excuses for players they like, but then won’t give credit to the Knicks for overcoming obstacles to be where they are…

Being the Lakers head coach is the best way to set yourself up for an extended vacation. You work for a year or 2 and you get to take a couple years off with pay. They're living the dream

I think it's just a new era of coaches having a shorter span. We can go to so many times that be good and with through 3 coaches in like a 7 year span. Brooklyn, 76ers, Raptors, Kings, Knicks, Celtics, Clippers, detriot, Lakers etc. It's happening on most teams. Heat, Denver, warriors, and spurs are like only team that had the same coaches for 7+ years.

Know this topic was Brou idea 😂

The difference is: KD mostly just focuses on playing ball; Lebron on the other hand, whines, complains, and drops slick comments about teammates, organization, and coaches. One is far more involved coaching decision. Pretending otherwise is being disingenuous.

Doc rivers is still coaching....enough said 😂😂😂😂

The media sad. The playoffs is cracking but lebron and KD is still topic of discussion

Y’all so weird. KD overcame a horrible injury & he’s 35. lol. He had an amazing career!!!! He will go down as one of the greatest players of all times & definitely a future Hall of Fame!!

Leave kd alone y'all already tricked him out of his rightfull spot then shamed him into leaving gsw

The Sports Media is far more responsible for getting Coaches fired then Players have ever been.

Yes we are noticing. I sure have.

This conversation is so disappointing, the amount of times they moved the goal post is embarrassing

He don't get none of the scrutiny lebron gets period

They gave Vogel a mismatched roster and they had injuries damn near all year. They did better than I expected looking at that roster and considering how many games the best players missed.

That’s how it’s supposed to be. As guys get older they retire and we start to focus on the young guys. The media can’t let go. It’s normal to start to transition

Im so surprised 🤷‍♀️ this the first time the media kept the same energy for kd😂 like everyone was bashing goat James but somehow passed over kd

People hold LBJ to a different standard because, whether they admit it or not, we all know LBJ is on a different level of stardom. Hes held to a higher standard because we expect more from him. We expect more from him because he is bigger and better.

I love that Brou said Durant was “a Top 25, maybe Top 20” player of all time. That’s just about right. Kinda tired of experts putting him top 15. Fantastic skills of course, very consistent, but a big zero on leadership, mental toughness, intangibles.

You know what’s worse than being a franchise killer? Being a franchise killer…that status belongs Harden😂

Can't believe KD left Golden State and NBA immortality for this

KD is re writing the book on how to destroy a franchise from LeGM

Still hating on Kyrie about vax meanwhile ppl are walking around vax injured

Who thought KD is NOT a coach killer?!🧐The guy literally said off and on camera: " it's me or Nash"

Kobe had 10 coaches in 20 years too, yet no one wants to talk about that.

KD Should of stayed with the GSW

Rob's "NBA Dead" take is aging gracefully.

I think the original thinking was we have all this offensive firepower let's get Frank Vogel a defensive coach now the two reasons you were fired him was because the one you can't run it back after being swept but you really can't move any of your pieces and maybe since you're so heavy on offense why not get a coach in there that knows how to maximize that

He might be a coach killer but he def kills teams futures.

Who said it was KD? How bout these MF"s start getting actual facts 1st before they start stating these hot takes as actual fact!!

The reason why Lebron gets more scrutiny is because people call him the GOAT so naturally people will analyze him more. By the way, I consider Lebron and KD to both be ring chasers who have made weak moves in their primes to get easy chips throughout but Lebron was just more effective at doing it. So I dont understand the civil war between Lebron and Durant fans when they are the same. It's like watching a group of strippers arguing with prostitutes. The only major difference is that people don't call Durant the GOAT so his weak moves have less long term impact and consequences on the all-time debate.

Brou: "You have to put it in context & give the whole story" Me: "KD CHOSE Nash, a player w/Zero coaching experience bcuz he & Kyrie were drunk off their own abilities... agreeing he didnt need a coach! KD CHOSE Kyrie, a teammate who misses games for a myriad of reasons! KD wanted a 3rd star in Harden... the issues w/that speaks for itself. KD CHOSE to leave GSW where he had a reliable Superstar in Steph, good coaching, discipline, they actually played defense (which hasnt been the case 'everywhere' else) THEN chose to go to the Suns & team w/another unreliable star in Beal & a star in Booker that was doing diddly squat before CP3 showed up. He put himself in every ridiculous situation he's been in since GSW. He's the real coach killer & hS been swept twice in 3yrs, but hey, let's give him YET ANOTHER pass that LBJ & Steph never get

Is it because KD hasn't "killed" as many coaches???

The Lebron "coach killer" narrative is pure hate garbage.. what's the market looking like for the great coaches david blatt? Walton? Vogel? Ham? Any coach win any championships after bron? Lol

It’s actually crazy to think that lebron gets more blame for Darvin Ham, a second year coach, getting fired than Kevin Durant and Devin Booker with a championship coach. No one cares. It’s the weirdest thing

Are we not going to hold Beal accountable for completely disappearing in the playoffs. I'm not a KD fan, but Beal finally got the team he wanted and he plays like this.

U know why he doesn't get scrutinized? Cuz he doesn't gloat about being......The G.O.A.T! He keeps his mouth shut for the most part, and plays basketball!

They complain that unless coaches win multiple championships they have no job security….. and then they criticize KD for not winning a championship outside of GSW. Do they not see how they contribute to the very thing they complain abt?

They mention the point guard but it was gm fault for removing all the depth which was the bigger issue

Broussard is ridiculous

The number is fasle if you put it into context. KD left the warriors so and steve kerr is still there so he does not count. Monty Williams was already in a tough situation before KD's arrival, the FO had to choose between him and Ayton chose Ayton but the guy did not want to be a fourth option so they traded him. We can't count Jack Vaughn either cause KD left the nets and he was still there. So we are left with 3 coaches Nash, Vogel and Atkinson.

The reason Durant doesn't get the scrutiny is because literally no one is placing Durant in the GoAT debate. Simple as that.

It’s you so called Scott reading, reporters who are not calling out KD. Us real fans have been saying that for years.

Monty Williams ain’t gotta coach another game ever 😂

KD still my fav player, still wish him Kai and Harden played it out longer in Brooklyn after the pandemic

The only show in sports media that said the truth about KD it’s so bad these days.

i don't know the rules but can a nba team "fire" a player like a coach? maybe that's the reason why coaches get the axe? i know vogel will still get paid USD26M for the next 4 years even though he got fired (plus he can also find a new coaching job while getting paid), does the same apply to players when because of a bad playoff run they are "fired" by the team? for example, can the celtics fire USD300M++ man jaylen brown if boston say loses to cleveland in the 2nd round and still pay him the rest of the money? will they do it? sure one can argue that you can trade that player but then what type of value does one expect to get when the other teams know that you're getting rid of him?

Why is this on video when even Rob Parker, 50% of the hosts, is literal packing his bag instead of paying attention to Brou...

Why do kd get an excuse for the 2021 nets with injuries but LeBron didn't get an excuse in the 2014 finals when wade and bosh were injured and the 2015 finals when Kyrie and Kevin love were injured

We can separate the media from the sports fans. Cause brothas I know be torching KD. Viciously.

Only coaches that have been removed under kds watch is Nash and now Vogel. This show has just pretty much made a habit of trashing kds name at this point I’m sure it’s because of Chris

WE DONE WITH LEJUICE 💉Kd & Lebron got the same legacy neither would’ve won shii if not leaving . How this the greatest era of basketball these dudes can’t win so team up still lose & blame the coach😂

C'mon guys, y'all know this is ridiculous. Magic Johnson got the coach he wanted and the old coach was fired, MJ literally retired because he couldnt keep the coach he wanted. This isn't a "new" thing. Nor a KD or LBJ thing.

KD is producdive. Suns get sweep is mainly due to Booker being much less productive in the series. I still think CP3 is their missing piece. Suns needs a gd true point guard type of player to make both KD and Booker shine.

Frank should be rehired with the Lakers…Ham was a horrible replacement and coach whose never adjusted at halftime in his life

The media has been slandering KB since 2016 because he did the same thing that LeBron did and realized that he needed more superstars to win. I’m not saying that LeBron or KD gets a pass for joining up with super teams, but they do not smash their team like they smash KD. Every year is the same song.
