Nobody is being particularly subtle these days in the NBA. The Los Angeles Lakers are going hard after Anthony Davis, LeBron James is going hard after ... everyone. And now, the New York Knicks are going after Kevin Durant.

In a recent message to season ticket holders, the Knicks included imagery that was highly selective. Several New York fans posted photos of the message, which asked folks to renew their tickets with a photo of Mitchell Robinson being guarded by Durant.

That’s pretty direct.
The Knicks have apparently already taken down the photo, but the fact remains that this appears to be how business is being done in today’s NBA.
