Kevin Durant — Adult Gohan

Adult Gohan isn’t nearly as fun as teen Gohan. He’s lost a lot of the confidence that he gained during the battle with Cell and is mostly cheesy and annoying. For some bizarre reason he also moonlights as a ridiculous superhero called the Great Saiyaman that nobody thinks is cool except for Gohan himself. He basically goes from saving the planet to busting low grade criminals in a costume that Kanye might design. The dude is still an awesome fighter, but he’s basically lost all of the good will he gained as a teen. Until he fights Super Buu, he’s more concerned with becoming a scholar than an all-time great fighter. Nerd!!!

Do we know any NBA player that would resort to a ridiculous disguise to defend himself?? Hmmm… maybe the guy with multiple burner accounts that he uses to defend himself from Twitter trolls? That’s right, give it up for our 2017 Finals MVP and social media LVP, Kevin Durant! KD is obviously one of the league’s best players and biggest stars, but for the past year or so he’s seemed like the kind of dude that would think the Great Saiyaman is actually a legit superhero.

This video sums up KD’s summer pretty well:
