"Kevin Durant is more gifted than Jordan, possibly the most talented player ever" - Steve Kerr

[intruder]

Was gonna make a thread about this but since this thread is here yall tell me this.:

What's the scouting report on Durant now?
What's the weakness to his game? He's one of the few players that seems to have gotten even better as he ages. I dont recall him ever being a top notch defender but he's not pushover either. His coaches have always hidden his slight weakness of not being able to defend players his size in the post (See how Bosh bodied him a few times down low in the Finals) so they would often assign him to defend away from the post but the NBA game dont have post up players as much anymore so that's technically irrelevant

Don’t play with me bro. I play at LA Fitness

He might be the most gifted. 7 foot tall handles / moves like a guard and a jimmy? If your tall he'll go right past you. If you're short he'll shoot over you. Doesn't force nothing, and is smooth. Offensively, he might have the best game ever if you add in his height

doesn’t this also apply to AD ? Or even Giannis ? What does this even mean ?

you neggas don’t know shyt about ball

Good grief!

He has plenty weaknesses in his game. KD does not move well off the ball. Cannot defend the post and he’s not a good rebounder. His skill set is pure scoring with the ball in his hand. That’s it. Give him the ball and he’s against a shorter defender which is the case at least 95% of the time he will score. However for him to commend a team and beat double team and making teams pay for gambling on defense he cannot do that.

it’s a reason teams focused on Curry and not KD.

it’s also a reason Harsen was the captain of the ship after 1 week and KD came back Harden was still the captain.

I don’t get why people in here cannot just admit it. Like we not getting paid. We just fans of the game.

Mike won 6 rings. All these nice words or whatever ain't putting KD in the same tier as Mike.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Oh y’all think we just gonna move on and stop talking shyt about KD?

Na….. he finna get that “Top Guy” clowning and beef

This is the worst breakdown of a player I ever read. Just admit it, you don’t watch KD play.

Yeah i've never seen him really dominate people his size (not many players his side on the wing anyway) but then again neither has LeBron. I always remembered his low-post defense got exposed when Bosh tore him up a few times in the Finals against the Heat and from there they made it a point to put Ibaka and Perkins on Bosh even tho Bosh would at times take a few plays and guard KD.

Players of his stature arent usually great moving without the ball. Not for lack of effort but they just dont have the foot speed to lose their defenders around screens and curls.

Why don't you give a rebuttal instead of your opinion

2021 is the year of seemingly intelligent people making absolutely idiotic comments.

 

[viktordoomsecretwars]

More "gifted" You can't be more gifted than a mutant.

 

[Juggalo Fred]

It's not a wild statement to make

Yes it is

He's right

No he's not

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

No he's not

You'se a lie

He’s always had a height fetish despite what is by far the biggest reason for his coaching success being a 6 foot 3 guard.
