They called him weak when he was first pick in the draft. They called him a traitor when he joined the Golden State Warriors last year. They questioned his skills, his tenacity and what kind of teammate he was throughout his basketball career. Though critics will always have their say about athletes, Nike dares anyone to debate the fact that Kevin Durant is now a world champ. The Golden State Warriors toppled LeBron James and the Cavaliers in the 2017 NBA Finals. As sports commentators sit at a semi-circular table, throwing potshots and negative talking points in Durant's way, "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" by ODB plays. The negativity continues until the confetti falls and the final game is over. Durant won the title and the commentators are silent, looking around at each other to see if anyone has anything to say.
