The problem is standards are extremely high for KD. He was this good two years ago before the injury.

Now a few players have emerged and are just as good.

Not saying KD is great or that he fell off but he hasn't gotten that much better over the past two jeans. HE hasn't shown it at least.

He just doesn't try as hard as other superstars.

If he did he'd be blowing awAy the competition.
:what:

He has showed it though.. He's having a great season

:jbhmm: Tries to get the team more involved & he doesn't shoot enough, takes over & it's too much iso/hero ball.
Stop this bullshyt. When has anybody ever criticized for playing hero ball. He showed that he can increase his volume and still be crazy efficient. That's just not his mentality. But don't cape and act like anybody ever came through saying he shoots too much. That criticism was always saved for Westbrook.

He shot 30 a few times in his mvp season and LeBron came out with the " if I took 30 shots I could score 60 pts " bullshyt.

That was the first signs of Lebron hating anybody else getting shine by bringing it back his way. I mean legit criticism.

Its almost like Westbrook took the spotlight away from him completely. Durant's absence, kinda put Westbrook towards the forefront and dare I say made him the man.

Then Curry came and just crush the buildings.

We know what were going see from KD. He's not getting judged on regular season games anymore. Its all about Championchip or bust for him now.

people said he was finished? lol wow.....anyway, the cat has been ballin and that's part of the reason i say the thunder are the team to watch out for in the west....everyone has been paying attention to the spurs and warriors, and rightfully so, but the thunder are far from being done and out the race....a healthy durant with the westbrook that emerged after he went down is a scary combo.....

That's why part of me hopes he leaves Westbrook. If had the the green light to put on the amount of shots Curry does, he'd be up there in the MVP conversation.

It's been of my opinion that if he leaves Westbrook his championship window closes. Even tho the east is considered weak he can only go to a handful of teams there and win a champonship, and it ain't DC

There have been games this season where him & Russy have taken over & been the only reason there was a chance to win, & people in this very thread have then went on about the whole hero ball shyt talking about not getting the rest of the team involved.

More like the most efficient scorer, where are the huge scoring binges from him? :lupe:


The "KD got 48 at the half" type shyt, he scores really well but it just doesn't seem like some selfish blackout shyt like Kobe or MJ were doing.

Didn't he black out on GSW just last year? Got hurt at half and was at something like 35 at the half....
