Other superstars like Curry and Bron don't get that same leniency is my point. KD is held to a different standard, unless we're admitting he's not on their level?
How is KD held to a different standard?

If anyone is held to a different standard it's Steph. He straight up bytched out on the season after KD left and he broke his hand, cause he knew he is not good enough to carry a team by itself as it's lone star player. Warriors got embarrassed those few games Steph played and he through in the towel milking that hand injury the rest of the season.

Many people have him 2nd team all nba. I don’t think I would do it because of his record, but I any mad at it.
Yeah, he’s been really good individually actually. If Booker was his normal self and bud ran rotation that didn’t have midgets and plumlee around them all year, you have a 5-6 seed.

300lbs center lands on his hand, resulting in two hand surgeries and lingering nerve damage but coli doctor duckbutta with his medical degree from JBO University believes he was milking it. :dead:

WTF? LeBron gets plenty of leniency, Lebron is the so called GOAT but every year he never has enough. He had AD, they need more, they need a C. They trade AD for the best player in the league fresh off leading Dallas MAvericks and Kyrie another one of LeBron;s not good enough teamates to the NBA finals. and it's still not eough. Meanwhile KD was supposed to win with Bradley Beal and Devin Booker.

They are all already on the same shyt, otherwise he wouldn’t have recovered from those surgeries the way he did & still be elite.

HIS NUMBERS ARE STILL ELITE
BECAUSE HE 6'11 AND A TOP TEN
JUMP SHOOTER IN NBA HISTORY.

HIS ATHLETICISM, BURST
AND ABILITY TO GET TO THE RIM
HAVE ALL DECLINED SINCE THE INJURY.

ANYTIME YOU CAN GUARD
HIM WITH A LONG ATHLETIC DEFENDER
WHO CAN CONTEST HIS JUMP SHOT
HE STRUGGLES BECAUSE HE CANT GET
TO THE BASKET THE WAY HE USED TO.

LAST 2 PLAYOFFS HE STRUGGLED
WITH MCDANIELS AND AARON GORDON 1V1.

PRIME KD WOULD HAVE EMBARRASSED
THOSE BOYS.

EVEN AL HORFORD GAVE HIM
TROUBLE 3 YRS AGO.

THE BUCKS SERIES 4 YRS AGO FOOLED US
BECAUSE THEY PLAYED
SHORT PJ TUCKER ON HIM
AND PLAYED THAT DROP DEFENSE
WHERE LOPEZ SAGGED INTO
THE PAINT AND GAVE HIM
J AFTER J
:devil:
:evil:

But Bron has a legion of haters who use him not winning more finals as why he's not as good as Jordan. It's a popular narrative

:dahell: 1 star



KD the only reason Suns aren't the worst team in the league. They 2-11 without him this season and only wins came against a injured Jazz team the worst team in the whole league and they needed a miracle Grayson buzzer beater to go into OT and win one of em. KD and that rook Dunn the only ones that play any defense in Phoenix. The last 2 seasons they had probably the worst center rotation in the NBA.

Nurkic, Eubanks, Richards, Plumlee, rookie Oso. Richards was 3rd string center in fukking Charlotte not gettin burn on a lotto team and he probably the best center Phoenix had since Ayton. It's one of the worst center rotations in NBA history. Nightly opposin bigs been lookin like HOFs against em. Jokic had the first 30/20/20 game EVER in NBA history on em even Wilt ain't do that shyt. And it not just Jokic look at game logs of opposin centers against Phoenix the numbers these nikkas puttin up is comedy.

Booker ain't no star or a real one. He arguably not even a top 5 SG no more. Ant took his shyt bad. SGA obviously on another galaxy if you count him as a SG. Jaylen, DMitch.... Current Booker not any better than a Desmond Bane. Look at his numbers against top defenses and playoff teams. He can't do anythin no more his overall stats a mirage cause he go off on lotto teams that don't play defense but he been declinin at 27yo shyt crazy.

Guys how are we not talking about this 37 year old player who has had multiple lower body injuries currently averaging 26 / 6 / 4 on 50 / 40 / 80 splits on a team with no real point guard and no real offensive threats outside of 2 other players...

The coli.com...

Like...what exactly is Kevin Durant supposed to be doing that he isn't doing?

Offense not a problem. They been a top 10 offense all season and closer to top 5 in games KD played.

It's the defense.... One of the worst in the league with the worst center rotation in NBA that make average centers look like HOF and can't rebound. KD at 37yo wit all injuries and that rook they got Ryan Dunn the only nikkas that play any defense in Phoenix. Royce too but he undersized and get cooked a lot he like a team defender.

Booker lowkey one of the worst defensive guards that don't get talked about. Every time I see a game he gettin scored on by everyone, his contests don't do shyt, he not athletic, not strong, not fast, don't got IQ on defense he get fried up. Beal don't defend at all. Tyus is one of the worst defenders in the league too he short and unathletic. He do his job on offense and offense not a problem for em but Tyus only thrived on stacked defenses like Memphis that could hide how bad a defender he is but Phoenix can't. And they been runnin 3 guard lineups wit em 3 Tyus, Book, Beal. They can't guard not a soul. I don't think there a worse 3 man defensive rotation than em. Then their role players besides Dunn don't play any defense either.

Two rings, two finals MVP's, League MVP, Four Scoring Titles, Four Olympic Gold Medals :why: One of the most consistent players in history. He's always been entertaining to watch. You gotta be a miserable mothafukka to hate on that career.
