Kevin Durant took a shot at Steve Nash by claiming new Brooklyn Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn is on the ‘same vibe’ as him.
Earlier this offseason, Durant dropped a bombshell on the Nets organisation when he handed in his trade request and allegedly gave the franchise an ultimatum to either fire general manager Sean Marks and coach Steve Nash or send him to another team. Ultimately, wounds were healed and all parties appear to be confident the 34-year-old is remaining in Brooklyn for the long term, particularly with Nash out the building.
However, a turbulent start to the season has once again ensured Durant’s future is uncertain amid a 6-9 record as well as off-court controversy. On Tuesday, the Nets suffered a historic 153-121 defeat to the Sacramento Kings - who haven’t qualified for the playoffs since the 2005/06 season - and it was the most the opposition had scored in a single game for 29 years.
