Dennis Schroder stirred up conversation during the Olympic Games with a statement that seemed to take a swipe at NBA basketball:
“European basketball isn’t just about fun. It’s about basketball IQ, coaching skills, and players who really understand the game.”
In response, after winning the gold medal, U.S. star Kevin Durant posted on social media with the words “ENTERTAINMENT AND IQ,” seemingly directed at Schroder.
Following the Olympics, Schroder addressed Durant’s post on his Twitch channel, stating that Durant has a “weak personality”:
“Despite being such a huge star, you felt the need to respond to a statement I made, which wasn’t even negative. To me, that was a weak move. I don’t care whether he tweets or not, but the fact that he posted it because of me shows just how weak his personality is. I respect Durant and players like him, some of the greatest in history, but this post revealed a lot about his character,” Schroder said.
