Kobe Bryant isn't the only NBA player who has a problem with where he landed on ESPN's annual player rankings list this year.

Earlier today, The Worldwide Leader in Sports revealed that Kevin Durant had been placed in the No. 8 slot on their #NBArank list, meaning that they feel there are currently seven players better than the reigning NBA MVP. Their reasoning? "Instead of shooting jumpers, he's shooting selfies" due to his recent foot injury. And obviously, KD did not agree with their assessment. So he responded to it on Twitter:

1.

However, it took him about two minutes to regret that decision. A short time after he sent out that tweet, he deleted it and replaced it with another tweet about how he was moving on. For whatever reason, he has since deleted that tweet as well.

So what do you think about KD landing at No. 8 on…BAHAHAHAHA. Oh, sorry. But seriously, do we even have to ask what you think? If you say anything other than "ESPN is trolling here," you're kidding yourself.
