Literally just off the top of my head.

At best he's 13th all time and cannot move up unless he gets a ring on his own team. Honest to God if Harden wins a ring this season I would put him over KD.
Because he's actually just as gifted of a scorer but he's shorter, has to work harder to get his points, averages more and a wayyyy better iso scorer.
I’m taking KD over Dirk and KG to be honest. Love Wade, to me the 3rd best SG of all time but KD>>> shyt If we want to really get to the nitty gritty I mean what says he’s not better than Bird? He’ll never surpass some of these guys legacies, Bird included... but I can’t say there’s 10 better guys to play the game on the court than Kevin Durant. To each their own though :hubie:

Paul George just flat out isnt a good post-season player since the injury.

Maybe the 2nd round will give him enough time to step up but whatevers hes going thru, it doesn't excuse the fact that he genuinely struggles in the postseason.

Maybe start volume shooting instead?:jbhmm:

He settles for jumpshots too much and doesn't realize he is a streaky shooter.

If he would slash/attack the basket consistently he could draw more fouls on the defense, which will open up the Clippers offense for others.

I think he's a Thunder fan that's a Rockets fan now, his list is that long bc it's personal for him.

KD's career is interesting to look at and it'll be even more so when it's over because it's so narrative fueled that it's impossible to have an agreement imo. LeBron was able to get the Miami stench off and salvage his image, KD won't get that opportunity. There's those that'll say he ran to the team with the greatest record ever and it doesn't really matter what he did there, then the other side weighs his numbers/impact more into the convo.

It'd be one thing if GS made him look better than he actually is like he's a Harrison Barnes/Wiggins or something. I just hate how we act like when rings were on the line and Steph was shrinking that Golden State didn't lean on KD's iso. If anything them going up against Toronto without KD showed how much of a difference he really is.

He wouldn't be the first player to not get his just due, but shyt after a MVP, 2 FMVP, 2 rings, 4 scoring titles, 10 all stars he might just be the greatest.
