    Slow news day but I'm not paraphrasing.

    Coach Nick says it about 7:06

    Yes, size and motor is there. Same with LeBron. This is no secret it's mind set. He's a beta. End of story

    I could see it. He was also a solid rim protector in the WCF until ting the bed. Not to mention, he locked up Kawhi pretty hard in the 4th qtr when he was switched onto him.

    Durant is the 3rd or 4th best player in the world for a reason tbh. Now that he doesn't have nearly as large an offensive load, I could easily see him become a terrific defender on a consistent basis.

    LeBron has no regard for Durant.

    Prohibitive favorite for at least the next five years? Come on. That's just a stupid statement.

    Duran'ts always been a good defender. If he's really embracing this whole team-first thing, then he can step into a defender role. As good as Kawhi? I'll believe it when I see it, but he's fully capable of defending.

    Strange to hear people who work covering the NBA actively rooting for a top-heavy league with no compe ion. Not sure how that's fun.

    I guess if you make your money off clicks then having a team that draws non-NBA fans to start reading about it is how to do it. Just write propaganda for the Dubs for five or six years and watch the hits roll in.

    Durant is the biggest got in the history of the sport, that much is proven. Becoming a lock down defender like Kawhi? Not been shown in all his years.

    KD has been a really solid defender. Not as good as Kawhi obviously ,but that is not a knock. KD is a better defender than Barnes and that is what matters.

    Man, KD on the Spurs would have been ridiculous on defense. Danny/Kawhi/KD/LMA would have been nasty.

    That's beautiful. Yeah, I read the thread le and thought, "Oh there's a train wreck coming here."


    I can't decide if I want to read further down and see if I know any of the bodies. Nah. You gave me a laugh, and if I leave now, I don't have to go take a shower.

    Durant is too weak tbh. Put your shoulder in him and he's toast.

    Seems like many media people don't have a team to support and suffer with. They're always champs.

    Durant is good on defense when he tries. He sure as locked down Leonard when it mattered.

    Not too far of a stretch to say Durant's offensive load will be lightened and he'll have more energy on defense.

    Wonder how much Roc Nation is paying them to suck Durbeta's . The media already loved the Warriors anyway, so they probably charge a discount.

    That is true. If GS wants him playing the 4 for extended periods of time, he's going to get his lunch money taken from him by more than a couple guys in this league.
    Even some bully 3's like Kawhi and especially Lebron.
