Kevin Durant

[TN Bucknasty]

What do ya'll think about this guy's future? Do you think he'll continue to develop or is he peaking early?

I haven't seen many 21 year olds who were this refined in their ability to score. I think if he can add a little bit of flesh to that frame and continue to build his confidence, he could end up being one of the greatest shooters under pressure in the history of the game. The rest of his game is not too shabby either. I fear that his wiry build is going to lead to a lot of injuries later in his career though.

He is a flat out scorer. Outside of Carmelo and Kobe, he's probalby the best pure scorer out there.

Anybody who plays as many minutes as he does is going to get rebounds though, so those numbers can be a bit misleading. His defense is a liability.

I think he can be a part of a contending team eventually, but he hogs the ball, and I think he'll be a lot like Kobe- without a inside option on that team they're not going anywhere. Drafting Westbrook was a great move, you can bet they try to add bigs this offseason though.

Go back and read what I wrote about him.

Never said he wasn't good offensively. What I said is he doens't have a true position and his defense sucks.

He plays on a young team that gives him 40 minutes a night. You're going to score and get a few boards with that much floor time. His plus/minus is terrible, and he doesn't get his teammates involved.

He's a lot like Carmelo, and I don't see too many rings on his fingers, Johnboy.

Once Oden works out these injuries, you will all see...

You would think with the kind of length he has that he would be a pretty good defender. I mean, a 6 foot 10 peremeter player with his quickness... come on. To me he's like a suped up Reggie Miller. Wiry, a pure shooter, not much for defense, but unlike Reggie, he is willing to go hard to the rim and draw alot of hard contact.

Right now, sure doesn't look too good. But stranger things have happened. He really wants to prove his worth though, so that's something. Some guys don't have that after they get that signing bonus.
