NBA rivalries are being hashed out on Twitter and Instagram these days.
Kevin Durant told CineSport’s Noah Coslov former teammate James Harden deserved a spot on Sports Illustrated’s ‘Top 10’ players list for the upcoming NBA season. Fair enough.
But when asked who he would take off the list to fit Harden on, Durant named Dwyane Wade.
Wade, coming off his third NBA Title, didn’t appreciate the slight:
Durant fired back on Twitter he didn’t appreciate Wade taking to social media to respond:
Show me don't tweet me..

Both players took turns this week confirming that the ‘beef’ is not fake. Durant maintains he meant no disrespect to Wade.
The season must be around the corner.
The Thunder travel to South Beach to play the Heat in January.
