Kevin Durant Reacts to Viral Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe Feud

In this story:


Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe host one of the most successful sports talk shows on television. The two fierce debaters go back and forth on every episode, often sharing opposite opinions, which draws in audiences as they debate one another. This level of contention is inherent to the show, but viewers have noticed a shift in the energy lately, leading some to believe there may be a real feud brewing.

Complex Sports recently put together multiple clips of tense moments between Skip and Shannon, headlined by their latest live argument which stemmed from a poorly received Tweet that Skip made about the Damar Hamlin situation.

Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant commented on this post from Complex Sports, and said, "This is good TV, keep it up fellas."

This is not the first time Durant has commented on the growing tension between Skip and Shannon. In mid-December, Durant had a message for Shannon after Skip belittled his legendary NFL career by comparing it to Tom Brady's. Shannon got visibly upset on the show, and Durant told him to "toughen up" in another Instagram comment.

Having some fun throwing back criticism at these hosts who criticize athletes every day, Durant is enjoying the tension between two of the most popular faces in sports television. While some think this is the end of Skip and Shannon, Durant thinks they should keep it up.
