Referring to himself as 'god,' Kevin Durant hit back at Charles Barkley's claim that he's insecure, although in doing so, the Brooklyn Nets star may have proven the allegation to be true.

The spat began when Barkley, a Hall of Famer, told Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks that Durant was 'insecure.' What's more, Barkley revived previous criticism by diminishing the two titles Durant won with the Golden State Warriors. Barkley and other former players have slammed Durant for ostensibly chasing a title by signing in Oakland in 2016, when he was the reigning NBA MVP and the Warriors were coming off an NBA-record 73-win season.

'I actually like Kevin, I think he's a great player,' Barkley said. 'I think he's actually a good dude — I think he's insecure at times. You know, he gets mad when the old guys like myself say that he's gotta win a championship outside of the Golden State Warriors.
