Naw... if Durant wins a few more rings with the Nets I don’t know how you can say his legacy won’t change.Nah...
No one on the Nets legacy will be hurt if they win besides Durant, as it will contextualizethe circumstances needed for him to attain championship status. It doesn't mean he starts sinking down the boards but rather he just really won't move up much, stay in the same general area he already is at...
Let’s say the Nets win 3 championships and Durant takes home 3 more Finals MVPs, he’ll have
4x Scoring Titles
1x MVP
5x Rings
5x Finals MVPs
Even if he only took home one of the Finals MVPs, those accolades put him in rare company and he’ll be remembered as an undisputed top 10 all time. In 20-30 years when talking heads are evaluating Durant’s legacy, they aren’t going to care about the fact that he “stacked the deck.” All they’re going to see is the achievements, how cold he was on the court, and the fact he was the best player on 2 dynasties.
But I don’t believe the Nets will win 3 rings, honestly
