So deferring to a ball handler means he can't be number 1 and that a team can't be built around him? I don't think so.

OKC management making the mistake of encouraging Westbrook to be co-number 1 with KD was the beginning and cause of OKC's fall from grace.

damentalist:

Tony parker or even Gino handled the ball more than Duncan. Do you mean, Duncan was not number 1 on that team?

benji93:
I am sorry, stop overstating KD's abilities. He cannot handle the ball as much as Harden. He can bring the ball up sometimes. But he cannot be the primary ball-handler on a winning team. I am definitely talking about handling the ball primarily for an extended period of time.

SmooshCHN:
You can't tell me a healthy Kevin Durant is not the most unarguable player in the league.

damentalist:
Bro you are preaching the gospel to choir members.

There is no one here that will disagree that KD is not the person to turn to in case you need a floor general to run the show. The bone of contention from the start has been that KD is an unstoppable scorer. And in that he has no equal in this league. Read again the first post

smoosh20:
Anyways, for Steady986. I said KD is the most unguardable player in the league. No one is asking if he has point guard skills, if he can average 20 assists, run the ball or if he is 1/2. Kevin Durant will always be the Number 1 option on offense in any NBA team. He's that good. If you think he can't make 2-3 extra passes, that's your problem. Westbrook, Harden cannot sit with Kevin Durant on offense whether regular season or playoff. Simple.

benji93:
Now I am not considering a situation in which he actually improved his game when he crossed over, but i can't also forget the fact that he had the luxury of playing alongside one of the best shooting backcourts of all time.

steady986:

Well, na your opinion. My own is that nobody should call Westbrook a number 2 on any team.

smoosh20:
Westbrook is number two when Kevin Wayne Durant is in the floor. It's basic basketball knowledge.

He can be dragging number 1 with Harden not Durant.

chic2pimp:


One of the Best ke? More like Far and away the best Shooting Backcourt of all time. I'd also love to see the much maligned Ben Simmons(as PF)play with that backcourt.

I mean, if we were talking of KD and CJ McCollum or KD and Devin Booker, you'd have a point. But you're talking of a league MVP, 2 time scoring champion and 2 time assist leader. Man GTFOH.

Bascovanveli, Obi Topping?

steady986:

Westbrook disagrees with you bro

smoosh20:

Westbrook disagrees with everything except himself. He'll tell you he's a better shooter than Steph and will shoot 10 3s even if none is going in. That's who he is and I can't fault a grown man for being confident in his abilities but guess what? He's still number 2 when Kevin Durant is on the floor. It's fact and it's simple.

Kevin Durant and CJ McCollum/Devin Booker?

Omo, your case done pass be careful.

OKC - Warriors Game 7.

The thread was hot on this day. The game that made KD leave and changed the NBA.

Game 6 was my favorite. When thompson went off. That three he shot over Westbrook.

SmooshCHN:
I was looking for the highlight and all I got was the one where curry and Thompson went off. The thread was on fire that day.

Can't wait for the season to start.

benji93:
Careful guys, some people do not like these. .

SmooshCHN:
I remember watching it live. I legit screamed from my bed.. And the one Iggy set as well. No shooter attempts that shot without setting their foot.

Eruditor:


Bradley Beal's people dem.

DeeMain:


Steph and Klay were freaking beasts!

And you all were wondering where all the hate on KD for joining the duo was coming from?
