12:29 Well, that's not entirely true. Yes, there were a lot of things that KD had no control over, but the things that he DID have control over (Steve Nash's hiring, DeAndre Jordan's signing, showing poor leadersip when things went awry, throwing his teammates under the bus in an interview, his crappy performance against the Celtics) WERE his fault.

[@brendanbloom3366]

Lies on top of lies. He never showed poor leadership or threw anyone under the bus. He wanted lue. Nash was hired by marks cuz they are friends and former teammates. The Celtics was a result of their entire team selling out to stopping him and the nets having 46 different starting lineups and 10 games together post harden trade and being completely undersized. Learn ball. That team lost 11 in a row and 17 of 20 games when kd was out. They would’ve been a lottery team without kd. You can’t even name a team to make the playoffs with over 40 different lineups and not many players are even getting shots off vs the coverage he was seeing.

[@smoothsavage2870]

@@brendanbloom3366 Thank you for being one of the FEW that actually provides context. Most of these people just get on here and lie or spread false narratives with little to no fact checking. And i can guarantee you that this person cant even give a definition of what a leader is to begin with because any ONE definition can be easily debunked because there has never been a single way to lead a team.

[@urbaindelva7869]

​@@brendanbloom3366You only argued against those 2 parts of my comment. Your point about the Celtics series? Fair enough. However, his friendship with DeAndre Jordan did lead to Jordan's signing even though they did not need him because Jarrett Allen had already broken out. Why would he want Ty Lue hired before giving Kenny Atkinson a chance? Is wanting the coach replaced before giving them a chance to show how they can help you win not showing poor leadership? Also, Durant did an interview where he made comments that, at least, could be construed as throwing his teammates under the bus by some.

[@urbaindelva7869]

​@@smoothsavage2870You're right. There is no one specific way to be a leader, and it does come in many different forms and definitions. But Durant has done a poor job of displaying those forms and definitions more often than not.

[@brendanbloom3366]

@@urbaindelva7869 having Jordan there was no problem. Kd took less money so they could sign them. That doesn’t mean they have to sign them. Kd is not the GM and Kd wasn’t the one who decides who started between Allen and Jordan. Jordan was a solid backup and mentor for Allen. Where is your evidence of Kd not giving Atkinson a chance? Nash was hired cuz he’s a former teammate and a friend of Sean marks. You are going with conspiracy theories about stufff that is the front offices business and trying to use that as some measurement of kds leadership.

⁠The Confusing Legacy of Ken Durant Rough

[@Spiral87]

I have enjoyed watching KD for 10 years, I guess it helps as a Bucks fan that whilst the warriors were dominating, the Bucks were a bubble playoff team mostly so it didn’t really affect me. And the one playoff series against KD was one of the greatest series ever, and I was fearful of him in all 7 games . He might be the all time mercenary, but he’s also an all time great.

[@YerpDerp17]

I know its popular for social media to crap on Durant. But it has been a pleasure watching him ball out his whole career. I really do think the media, though valid to a degree, really did a number on how we view him. He does deserve some criticism, as do most athletes, but the guy is a pure baller who really loves the game. I always have found it odd that MANY, and in recent NBA history, MOST superstars have grouped up with other superstars or stars to chase championships. I do think him wanting to leave Westbrook after all those seasons were reasonable. Though I can see why people were annoyed he joined GSW, I still don't believe he deserves the hate or disrespect he has gotten. I think history will be a bit more kind, and he will get the props he more than deserves.

[@adam711s]

Found KD’s burner account. jkjk 😂

[@mod7065]

The problem is he, a top 3 player, went to a championship level team that he lost to while on a championship level team. He’s too good to go to a team like that. The C’s grabbed two other superstars to win 1. The Heat got two other stars to get 2. The Warriors didn’t need Durant like the other two teams did. They made the right move as an organization. The same can’t be said for Durant, any case he had to be truly considered one as one of the best was destroyed that night. Cavs V Warriors was about to be a LEGENDARY rivalry, then KD joined and got 2 easy rings (barring that 2018 Houston series). He has yet to win as “the guy” and until he does fans will continue to recognize his talent, while calling his legacy worthless.

Bro i think you might wanna get your infos right. Shaq was clearly the best player in LA and won all FMVPs.

[@ghostrealm7549]

Other way around. Shaq was the undisputed #1 player on the Lakers during the Shaq and Kobe Era. If Kobe and Shaq never won without each other (I.e. Laker 2009-2010 and Miami 2005), people would view Shaq as the undisputed better player than Kobe. The 2009 and 2010 championship helped Kobe more than the 2006 championship helped Shaq.

[@Joswag]

I fixed it guys

[@johndebono1870]

I don't know if that works since: 1. The Lakers weren't a dynasty in the 90s for at least six specific reasons. 2. Even though Kobe is the lifelong Laker, Shaq was unambiguously the first option in the early 2000s. 3. It's well known that Shaq was objectively lowballed and publicly told he wasn't worth the money. Orlando screwed up more than he turned on them. The comparison only works if Shaq decided he was going to go to the 72 win Bulls.

Well, he was there when the OKC Thunder franchise was born, and he helped build them up into a great team. The current OKC Thunder, despite being very good, are still young and growing. Yes, they do have potential, but we still don't know how high that potential is, or if they will actually reach it yet. Also, KD would not be leading this team because he is at a point in his career where he simply can not do that; SGA would. However, he would bring a level of championship/playoff experience that the current OKC do not have.

He does not have to do the same thing Lebron did and back to OKC to redeem his legacy. He's currently on a franchise that's never won. If he wins with the Suns, then his legacy is redeemed.

The reality of it is while KD is supremely talented, he doesn’t have the competitive drive that all other stars have. It’s been apparent thru his whole career. One big indication of this to me is how well he performs when his team is in control of a game, compared to his disappearing acts when his team is struggling to score. He’s a walking paradox.

Remember when KD himself in a segment with Serge Ibaka said that if Klay had not gotten injured, the series would have reached a Game 7 and the Warriors would have won without him. Heck, Klay had 30 points in game 6 of that series before he went down. Klay was on track to have another historic Game 6 Klay moment. PS. A thought came to mind.

The correct answer is KD ends his career with the *new* Seattle Supersonics expansion team in 2028.

[@half-hazard8903]

"Greatest player on the greatest team of all time" is a respectable legacy.

[@ColoCulture]

He played well in Paris too

Kevin Durant is the only star player in NBA history to get LESS respect from most of the NBA fan base after winning two titles in a row. He severely underestimated the unspoken rules of sports, one of them being that when you lose, a true competitor grinds and tries to come back stronger to face an opponent that beat them in competition. The most shameful thing an athlete can do after losing to a team, is try to join the team/person that beat you for an easier path to victory, because you’re not good enough to carry your own team or beat them if you had to play against them again. It’s not even about joining a better team than OKC, he could have went anywhere else in free agency, and wouldn’t have received so much hate. Yet he chose the team that beat him, because they were the best in the league, and it made for easy competition. Cupcake jokes aside, that has to be the weakest thing you could possibly do as a competitor and you can’t even expect people to give you respect for it. I bet Durant knowing what he knows now, would never go to GS that offseason, because it not only didn’t get him the respect he was looking for, it made people respect him far less.

KD’s legacy is what Carmelo Anthony’s legacy would’ve been had he joined Miami. Great scorer. Couldn’t get it done without major help

[@northernMarc]

9:10 why did the Blazers get swept then? 😂

[@slimey2672]

"No one likes it" "It's not fun" 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@JonathanCute-e4f]

6:29 😂😂😭😭 nah for sure his legacy different

[@Watchingvideoslikeu]

KD is an excellent basketball player and has had an excellent career. He was clearly the second best player in his era and skill wise second to none.

[@ACWall985]

a video on my fav player on my bday n idk how to feel

[@EyoxinhoLeblaze]

Happy birthday🎉

[@pleasestopcapping]

Yall trolling with the title lmao 😂

[@batteriesfx]

if instead of going to the suns KD went to OKC and said he had unfinished business it would have made his legacy 10000x better

[@miketag7541]

Sadly. I didn’t start watching the nba till 2021. If it wasn’t for KD. I wouldn’t of watched one of the better finals in past years between the bucks and suns.

[@AmariAaron]

completely disagree with comparing Durant’s relationship with the warriors to Lebron’s with the heat. Bron was the leader of that squad and the fans have immense respect for him. As soon as Kd left warrior fans echoed Drays statements about not needing him to win.

[@BigWillieDillie]

Everyone 30 years from now is gonna wonder how KD ended up with the Warriors like Clyde with Houston.....

[@mattyboy9588]

10:23 hey they could’ve done it without KD but it did damage Steph legacy also

[@frederickdelius1106]

Kawaii getting injured made a big difference in that round as well.

[@urbaindelva7869]

Which one?

[@Skinslyfe]

@@urbaindelva7869bruh vs warriors when they were up 20
