Is there any doubt that Durant will go down as a top 10 player in history?

[Goat Milk]

It's looking more and more like there's no doubt Durant will pass up Tim Duncan, Shaq, Hakeem, Bird and others. If we think about it for a sec, this guy is JUST NOW entering his prime.... It sounds unreal when you think about it. His numbers are going to be absurd when he retires and so will his resume.

We get caught up in Kobe and Lebron -- but Durant is going to sneak into that group when it's all said and done.

Yeah, he made a bitch move and went to GS. But he's been the 2nd best player in the world for so many years now. And Lebron pretty much did the same when he joined the 2nd best player in the world in Miami (Wade).

[jjgold]

He has time yet but if he wins a few more titles yes

[shadymcgrady]

He hit his prime during the last yr in okc, he was the best player in the league by then and still holds the crown today

As far as legacy goes he won't surpass lebron but there's still time

[t-wizzle]

No shit goat.

[ans61201]

He's definitely talented enough to be top 3. His resume could pass lebrons when it's all said and done. Shrinks in pressure moments and will have the warriors working against him historically speaking.


Funny when you think about it, kobe won more than half of his rings with a far better teammate than Kd has ever had. He's already better than him.

[Hman]

Top 10?

No way.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

yet another air ball by goat splooge.

[The Kraken]

At this point in his career, no, he is not a top 10 player

By the end of his career I'd guess yes, he will be somewhere around 9 or 10

[cwnotorious]

If he stays healthy I may squeeze him in the top 10, no chance he ever gets in the top 3

[thetrinity]

Is this real

About as much chance as deron Williams going down as a top 10 pg

[Hman]

Off the top of my head, guys he should never be considered better than or ranked above.

Jordan
LeBron
Bird
Magic
Kobe
Shaq
Olajuwon
D. Robinson
Duncan
Kareem
Chamberlain

what about bill russell he was ok

[shadymcgrady]

He's similar to Abdul Jabar with unstoppable scoring

Also tightening up weaknesses such as defense and hustle by being on a stacked squad much how lebron improved areas when he was on miami

His passing was always above avg but his ability to score whenever on whoever in a plethora of ways is what makes him special

He'll pass kobe for sure

[Hman]

what about bill russell he was ok

Yes there are other guys probably better too.

I was giving Durant benefit of the doubt.

Guys he's equal to or no better than:

K Malone
Barkley
O Robertson
Stockton
I Thomas
D Wilkins
Erving
Russell
Garnett
Nowitzki
Ewing
Drexler

I'm sure there are plenty of others.

[Hman]

He'll pass kobe for sure

Shady, both 18yrs old coming out of draft you would take KD over
Kobe??

[jtoler]

I like younger Durant he would take you off the dribble and drive some. He wasted his best years having to play with Westbrook. Young KD was a machine, how does one average 32 and become a 4 time scoring champ playing with Russ? You have to be darn good, super efficient. Imagine if he never played with Russ.

Yes bc durant is unguardable not to say that kobe isn't but a 6'10" dead eye shooter that can drive with the best of them? That's unfair, he creates mismatches more than dirk did and the German wunderschnitzel revolutionized the game

[Snowball]

stop comparing pre-3 era with 3 era
Durant is also way too soft to bang with the old crew

Top 10 Players don't leave a very good team to join a team that won 73 games the year before. period. End of discussion.

agreed Hman

[Auto Donk]

Not even close to a top ten.... maybe 30-40, if that....

[unlearn]

Top 10 all time pussy no doubt

[daneblazer]

Yes, a lot of doubt. Something about him is underwhelming. Warriors are Curry’s team. Durant seems more like a Scottie Pippen. Nothing wrong with that.

[UncleChael]

The Vegas Knights are so dominant that Kevin Durant is thinking about joining them.

I'd put Iverson in that second bracket.

Listed as D. Robinson

Yes and should not be on list

[no1here]

You guys are clueless!!! One of the Best ever LARRY BIRD!

Bird was a 12-time NBA All-Star and was named the League Most Valuable Player (MVP) three consecutive times. 1984-1986. He played his entire professional career for Boston, winning three NBA championships and two NBA Finals MVP awards.

[Auto Donk]

bird head and shoulders above durant.....

bird's willpower and intensity makes durant look incredibly soft....

[Hman]

Yes and should not be on list

LoL say what LB???

[Easy-Rider 66]

Say this about Durant. He is one of the best shooters. Should have stayed with OKC I believe. Proved his worthiness as a top 10 player there.

[Chi_archie]

Bird couldn't hit the three though
