Skip is talking crazy. He said Durant's legacy could challenge Jordan's, and that he'll surpass Kobe because Kobe has too much Hollywood drama.

He's potentially going to win his first title at age 23 as the best player/leader of his team, and it's looking like his team will be around for a long time. Neither Kobe or Jordan could say that. Plus he's already a 3-time scoring champ.

Durant's legacy challenging the best of all-time isn't far-fetched at all if you're considering what he's already accomplished. Of course, he hasn't accomplished anything real yet.

And it's all premature right now, but it's not a crazy point.

Durant should pass Kobe's legacy. He will have more scoring titles, better career average, more MVPs and potentially the same number of rings. The average age of this Thunder's team is only 23.

I don't know about Jordan's tho.

^^^easy there. that ring life aint easy and someone is gonna throw that max at harden and if they get 2 or 3 and russy let this mounting media shyt get to him it could throw a wrench in everything.
