KD Recruits TWill, Morrow for Kicks
It's a big deal in the world of Twitter and sneakers.
Shortly before 4 p.m., Kevin Durant tweeted, "I want a group of guys to wear my shoes this year, I'm thinkin anthony morrow, terrance williams, nate rob, guys like that..who yall think?"
Whoa, two Nets get invites to wear KDthunderup's sneakers!? The response from Charlotte (Morrow) and East Rutherford (TWill) was quick.
"I def would rock your shoes, it would be an honor bro", tweeted Williams, later adding, "Well I think @kdthunderup being one of theee best it would be a honor age or not, so I say yes to his shoes, so go cop em"
Morrow, whose tweets we've noticed are quite efficient, didn't hesitate either. "I'm on deck," he replied.
Seems like a done deal, with KD closing out the day by tweeting TWill his thanks, "I appreciate u bro...wateva u need u kno I'm just a phone call away"

I am a sneakerhead (big fan of Air Jordans)
The KDI was okay, then last year’s KDII was awesome. I have seen the KDIII, that is a pretty good looking sneaker as well.
I think its pretty cool to see them recruited personally by a player such as Durant. Maybe one day TWill will get a signature pair a sneakers himself from Nike.
Consequences will never be the same.
dnt have time or place
to wear sneakers… :( i remember being in highschool and all i wore were sneakers. But cant anymore :(
As long as you were wearing the OG Jordans...
Thats all. Now All I buy are Retro J’s and the hottest Ballin sneakers
Consequences will never be the same.

i dont wear sneakers much in everyday life anymore
but i’d play in KD’s shoes

I think its good looking (Nets colorway Red/Navy will look even better)

Consequences will never be the same.

Love to see T-Will associating himself with someone like Durant. True class act, I wish everyone in the league could be more like Durant

Good mentor for TWill
-Say man when I was growing up we wanted a Jacuzzi, we had to fart in the tub.
had to double take headline there
“KD Recruits TWill, Morrow for Knicks”
That’s what I thought it originally said at first glance, and made me say “WHHHUUUUTTT?!”
Until D James blows the league up and Nike has the D James shoes. The motto will be
“Didn’t have to witness cause you already know”Since the face been revealed the game got real

How awesome if they trained in the off season together and that accelerates D James hostile takeover of the NBA . My hope is he is the best James in the NBA one day. Before I hear " Its just summer league" I am allowing myself to get prematurely excited about him cause its been awhile for Nets fans
Since the face been revealed the game got real
Not to blow this thing outta proportion, but:
1) Weird that 2 out of the 3 guys he picked are Nets !?!?!?!?!?!
2) Any added association of TWILL with Durantula is way okay in my books. The Young fella plays the game and conducts himself like a man deserving of respect.
(As opposed to the LeBonBon-type clowns)…Speaking of, if I see one more spectacle by a ‘so-called’ superstar in this league that is followed by a “supportive” tweet by LeBonBon that says: “Gots to do what’s right for you and your family, bro.” I’m gonna puke and then find LeBonBon and beat him with a rubber chicken.
Are you implying :
That because Durant asked two Nets to wear his shoes that he is somehow sending a message that he wants to play here? If so I could entertain you theory futher if he didn’t sign that extension.
Since the face been revealed the game got real
I think he just wants to highlight the differences between himself and LeBron.

I wasn’t like talking mess or anything. I totally agree with 2 big time, but number 1 is just a very open statement not sure where it was going. But I think Durant is the MVP of the league untill futher notice and if some of his nastyness can rub off on T Will or any other Net I am cool with that.
Since the face been revealed the game got real
No, I wasn't implying The Decision Part Deux,
but rather, the way that the new “friendliness” of the NBA aligns good vs. evil.
In other words: The LeBonBon way, of guys ’banding together while holding the NBA and teams hostage vs. Guys simply recognizing (Morrows Twills and Durants) Gym rat-respect
Maybe it will also get Nate Robinson to change his attitude and then we can trade for him.

These shoes will likely keep T.Will’s turnovers down and increase his field goal percentage so he can stay on the team. Thank you Durantula.

Well If Kevin Durant is interested in T-Will then...
That means that his peers also recognize his talent.
KD who seems like a very well adjusted smart classy kid is building his own Brand. And he wants T-Will and Morrow in his shoes. That speaks volumes to me. KD is a Superstar and my pick to be the next face of the League now that Kobe is getting older and Lebron forfited his place there.
He didn’t say Brook and Devin. He said T-Will and Morrow. Now Coach just needs to make sure these guys get the space and time to develop.
The NETS are coming!
Does Durant Think
Twill and Morrow are going to represent with a big year??
KD ???????????????
Ther’s only one KD in this town, and that’s Keyon Dooling
KD is thinking ALLSTAR weekend.
Twill – dunk contest winner
Morrow – 3 point shoot out.
Both wearing his sneakers.
wow
Just realized that the Nets could get some shine at all star weekend

“I am on deck”, did he mean “I am on board”?
