Did I just watch that nine consecutive times? Darn right I did. Am I going to watch it another 10 times after I finish writing this? You know it.
Entering the fourth quarter at Rucker Park last night, KD had a solid 38 points. Then he did that whole Durantula thing where he pretty much just destroys everything in front of him. He finished with 66 total, just shy of the Rucker league record. Yeah, only one NBA player was there (and it was only John Lucas III) and yeah, the competition wasn’t all that great. But forget that. It’s not so much about Durant being good because he scored 66 points. It’s more about the moment. It’s about the night he had playing hoops at one of the world’s most famous courts. Doesn’t matter who he was dropping those bombs over. At a certain point, basketball is basketball. You have to get open, shoot and make it go on. KD is really good at doing that against whoever it is he plays.
We already know KD is amazing. Him scoring 66 points in a pickup game doesn’t prove anything more, or anything less. It was just a totally cool thing and something that Durant said he’s going to cherish forever.
I wonder why The Oklahoman did not even mention this story. It made the Huffington Post and ESPN.com. Siding with the Thunder ownership, maybe?
That was just sick!
He does look bigger. Hopefully he can start keeping the weight on. He'll be 23 soon...
at about 4 minutes I swore allegiance to Kevin Durant as President of these United States.
The behind the head spin pass was sweet. I can see our big guys getting a lot of easy dunks from that pass
seriously though.... "I am..."
KD says he gains weight every offseason but loses it all during the year. I definitely think he's stronger. Not sure if he'll ever sustain any weight gain though.
PS KD looking bigger and stronger. If he doesnt game a pound. He' ll still be one of the best.
This joint was posted up the day of. I had to watch it several times to make sure It was true. That crowd will be talking about it for years. Amazing
What a ball-hog.
@ sammasaaron
haha, mine too, i was pissed because mine are brand new, but then i turned on pandora and everything is golden.
Is it just my headphones, or is the audio only on the left channel?
reminds me of my reaction during game 5 against the nuggets. god, please dont take the nba away
What. Durant say he loves NY not OKC. Controversy! j/k
Maaaaaaan - what I'd have done to be there that night. Thank you Harlem for the 400+ cell phones you guys used to help me see all that.
I'd have paid UFC/Boxing pay-per-view prices to see that game btw.
