KD left Westbrook a PG who doesn't know how to win and thinks he's a #1 and that's why his ass requested to get traded to Houston.

      @Nintariz They do, just because they are a fan of certain player. People who enjoy basketball enjoy any player and his abilities. I'm a Jordan guy, but KD is unguardable no matter in what team he is on. This video is prove, he played with Melo and Kobe which are the type of players that hugged the ball (not saying is bad) and still score a lot of points with great FG%, which is something we saw of him in both championships game 3 and 4 with Curry and Thompson. The consistency of KD is pretty much similar to the one of Jordan, and no one else comes close. I still give the edge to Jordan just because of his maturity to play the game.

    I really hope this man can win a finals mvp this year, he’s playing like he could and his team is good enough. As much as people hate this guy, he is the most effective, versatile and arguably the best scorer of all time. An fmvp after an Achilles tear should solidify him as that guy and a top 10 player of all time

    Honestly when I saw Durant play against team USA back in 2007 I had him at least 6'11". But the way he was playing against them was unbelievable

    I knew from the start that he will be a Great Player. It's rare for a player that tall to have good handles and great shooting skills.

      Thank you dude! This new, almost archetype, has got scouts going crazy. They think it’s easy to dominate in the nba if you’ve just got a shot and you’re tall. You can see that with all the hype Chet holmgren is getting (he’s good, just needs a LOT of work before he’s even nba ready, let alone dominating).

      I remember watching KD in college at Texas and thought, "this dude is a tall ass shooter that can dribble and drive." Every time people today that want to compare other players in high school and college who can't even shoot to KD, it always has me laughing.

      There been guys with 6'10 height that can shoot the difference is he can put the ball on the floor ppl forget about Rashard lewis, Hedo Turkoglu, toni kukoc and rasheed wallace to name a few.

    KD was 6’10” outta college… that cat been out the bag. That’s why he lied about it. Nevertheless, he is a generational talent!
    Edit: LeBron was 6-8, 6-9, and you can clearly see Durant is taller than LB

    I was talking with a friend about the 96 Bulls vs the 2016 Warriors. I just thought it would be funny to see the Bulls reaction if you showed them KD and Steph's scouting report. They'd think it was a joke bc there were never any players like them.

      @@davidgivins4203 Kukoc couldn't guard Durant man. They'd probably end up putting Rodman on him if not Scottie. They'd give up the height but were much, much better defenders than Kukoc. I'd expect Rodman, he was very strong, very fast, and not short at 6'9" (Durant's pretend height). Durant would definitely still get his points, but I'd say Rodman would aggravate him into a poorer percentage and probably a few extra turnovers.
