Just catching the Thunder game now. Arguably Durant's best game of the season - dude looked simply unstoppable. 11-14 / 32 points. The league better watch out once he regains his form.


Grizzlies seem to have hit some form after the Chalmers trade. OKC killed that right quick. 125 - 88.

if this dude gets any better than 28/8/4/1.4/1 on 53% shooting and 46% from three than the league might as well concede the season being decided by a warriors/thunder WCF.

i will say, even though the numbers are real nice, he still needs to be more consistent during the games. watching that kings game was struggle with this dude turning it over every time he touched it and then forcing and missing shots in the 4th(before the game winner). once he's got that consistency going and the turnovers down he'll be set.

the only other knock would be him not getting to the line as often as he used to, but i'm sure that will improve as the season goes on and he's more confident in that foot being able to take consistent drives to the rim.

Huge disappointment. Thought he would have used not winning the mvo and his poor performance against the clippers as motivation to work on his game during the summer. He did not. Focusing on clubbingand reality TV stars.
See, I don't think any amount of work he does on his game will change his style of play. It's going to be a cold and slow realization for a lot of dudes on this board as the seasons go by, and the same talking points that they believed either didn't exist or were exaggerated become more and more real.

im not a harden fan at all, but adding a midrange shot would drastically improve his game and im sure it could help change his style a bit too. at least keep defenders somewhat honest, even if he just tumbles his way to the free throw line.

too bad morey is a bytch that doesn't condone midrange shots.

the west is factually not as good as it was a few years ago or even as good as it was last year and the east has improved tremendously, but only haters will take something away from the warriors for that.

that said, you're delusional if you don't think spurs/thunder cant give them trouble.
I think the spurs could be trouble but unless okc does something to better their defense i dont think they can stop the warriors right now.
