Either Dwyane Wade and Kevin Durant are better actors than we thought or the power of Gatorade goes well beyond the ability to replenish fluids. You remember this? Supposedly, it's make believe.

Well, maybe it's not so make believe. Look at what went down on Instagram on Tuesday.

To which Durant replied:

This all stems from Durant saying that Harden, not Wade, belonged in Sports Illustrated's list of the top 10 NBA players for the 2013-14 season. LeBron James is No. 1 on the list, Durant was No. 2. Wade was ranked No. 8. Harden, who was traded from the Thunder to the Houston Rockets before last season and became an All-Star, is No. 11.

Surely, this got the attention of the basketball world. As for the rest of the world? Well ... it is September, remember?

Kevin Durant called out Dwyane Wade. Somebody tell them it's football season. #BeefWhenYoureRelevant
