yet he’s never gonna come close to making a all defensive team in his career

in his best defensive season (2016) he was above average/good his offense took a nose dive in the post season. The dude had a 20 PER in the 2016 playoffs. That’s nowhere near all time great.

also plenty of dudes have lit up KD. I have no idea what you talking about

What dudes were lighting up KD?

And the only players who have averaged more blocks than him this postseason are Gobert and Lopez. He’s a great defender

Breh :gucci:

Please don’t act like Kevin Durant isn’t an absolute problem on the defensive end.
7 footer with 7’5 wingspan. Can protect paint and rim.

We’ve watched KD play his entire career and hardly anybody has given him routine buckets.
Nobody’s gone on stretches and given him vicious buckets. Ever.

KD is not one dimensional in the least. He hasn’t been for several years. And let’s not act like any former NBA wing players wouldn’t be getting 30+ dropped on their heads routinely in this modern NBA2K era of scoring that we live in
Was in and around the top 10 in defensive win shares for forwards from the season after he first got to the finals with OKC through his time in GS.

nobody is gonna confuse him for an all time great level defender but he’s prob still underrated, even from the people who say he’s underrated if that makes any sense

Dudes hear Jordan and it just doesn’t count.

Jordan has the best basketball resume known to man that’s a fact and is possibly the best basketball player ever due to it

But when you talking pure skillset and gifts Durant is definitely up there or #1 he a legit 7 footer that can really do it all,coordinated like a guard and moves like one on top of the handle and scoring ability,KD will never be labeled as the greatest player ever and that’s not what Kerr is trying to say but “GIFTED “ is not a stretch at all.

People comparing dudes to Jordan while they continue to fail to be as dominant over the course of a entire decade like jordan was is the reason MJ is still relevant and still the one people get compared to. List off all these things they think makes them better than Jordan, and yet their peers still eating comfortably.

Skillsets across era change. Only true comparison you can make is how good you were compared to your peers. since you all had the same advantages and disadvantages that came with playing during that time.

Lmao

None of those players achieved what Durant has in this game. No MVPs, NBA titles, nothing lol


This is why the coil is trash about sports. Winning a title with GSW is the easiest title of all time any top player could have achieved. Bron would have gone undefeated with them most likely.

KD joined the beat team that beat him and you talking accomplishment ?

Like it’s a cult. Neggas can’t say how clutch KD is anymore. Now they wanna cling to skillets. What fukking skill sets besides good handling and shooting over shorter SF ? Tell me Kyrie skill sets. Tell me Morant, Trae Young and the others.

I know y’all may like KD but this shyt is beyond stabbing now. And it’s the usual Bron haters propping him
