Kevin Durant scored 39 points and the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers to win their second NBA title.
After 10 years in the NBA, Kevin Durant has finally won an NBA championship.
Durant signed with the Golden State Warriors this past off-season, which sparked widespread debate across the NBA about whether he was taking the easy route to a title.
While some were happy to see Durant claim that elusive ring, the Twitterverse was pretty savage towards the former Oklahoma City Thunder star.
Here are some of the best Durant-related tweets.
