He is climbing my list of favorite players to watch in the NBA. It's hard not to root for him.
its hard to notice this guy cause hes on a ty team (that plays like the Lakers vs the spurs but thats not the point) but he is a freak among freaks.
he is the same exact size/bodytype as Kevin Garnett, yet he has the quickness and ballhandling skills of a guard, can elevate, and has unlimited range.
im not sure theres been a player like this before, 6-11 with long ass arms who can run a break, handle the ball, penetrate and dunk, or just hit shots from any range that no one in the league can reach or block. its like he was genetically designed in a lab to play basketball. hes like kevin garnett and tracy McGrady combined into one player. no one can contest his jumpers, and hes too quick, tall and long to keep out of the paint.
i dont really see whats keeping this guy from scoring at will and averaging over 30 a game every night.

Kevin Durant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
christ hes only 20??
by the time hes 25 he could easily be a 33-10-8 guy.
hes only 6'9"
When the Sonics left Washington to become the Oklahoma City Plunder, the real reason that most of us were upset was because it meant Kevin Durant was leaving. He is a bad mother er on wheels.
If OKC winds up with Griffey next year, they're going to be seriously ing dangerous.
Yep, we could be watching this guy blossoming into one of the best players in the NBA already. He has limitless potential.
Yup he's a freak. His potential is unlimited if he is dedicated to improving his game.
Anyone catch Woody Paige on ATH?
Hahah, PTI is giving a fake story as it's lead off. No way would Pitino Calipari like that.
ROFL they said April Fools after it was over.
bull , he stands hunched over so he might appear shorter, watch him out there hes taller than oberto, gooden, thomas and bonner, hes MINIMUM 6-10 standing up straight, and plus his wingspan is enormous so that overrides it anyway.
hes like a superhuman scottie pippen
What'd they do?
Durant is great, really really great, but it'd be nice if he could lift 135. He hasn't gotten any stronger in his first 2 years.
They said Pitino was gonna re-take the UK job even though they gave it to Calipari. And how much of a snake Pitino was. I was just laughing the whole time cause I knew it was fake. Then they said april fools and all that, and I started cracking up.
Why I'm sure he will average a quadruple double!
He will be the 2nd best player in the NBA in 2-3 years.
I compared him to Rashard Lewis earlier this year. Boy, I sound re ed for that.
However, I do still want to see how he performs when his team is better and compe ive night in and night out where he has to be more prudent with his shot selection. I do think he does have a level of comfort with his play because there isn't great pressure on him and his performances to produce wins. If he's having a really off night shooting the ball, will he be able to attack the rim and take the pounding? If he's called upon to slow down the opposing wing player defensively, will he be able to do that?
Those are obviously nit-picking points at this point because he's been pretty amazing this season. But, those are things he would also have to improve along with continuing to build up his upper body strength in order to really be a superstar in this league for years to come.
But, yeah, I must admit, it definitely appears that I was stupid for comparing him to Rashard Lewis. Let's see if he continues to prove me wrong...
I wouldn't put him in that rarified of air...but for comparison; what is the top 3 in the future?
I say...
1)LeBron
2)Dwight Howard
3)Chris Paul
4)Deron Williams
5)Possibly Derek Rose/Kevin Durant/Blake Griffin?
If he could get stronger he would be a nightmare, dude has to hit the weights. Him and Anthony Randolph.
dont laugh at the 135lb bench...
1. his arms are like 4 feet long
2. all he has to do is lift the 120lb models off him and hes good
Has anyone ever seen Tracy Mcgrady his rookie year and draft day? He was way more lanky than durant, trust me if he could do it, so can he.
wtf. Kevin Duarnt is way way way better than deron williams.
He will be better than CP3, Deron, and Dwight.
I just scored 54 points with him on 2k9.
