Kevin Durant showed why he is an all time great.

I mean : KD perform like this and Royce - 3pts Gordon - 0 pt Allen - 7pts Eubanks - 0pt - You cant beat a team like celtics with only one man

[Bran-Da-Don]

He is pound for pound the best scorer of all time. I know LeBron has the record but I'm talking about just getting a bucket whenever I feel like it type of Kevin Durant.

Listen I'm TIRED...YES I SAID TIRED of this man not getting the RESPECT he deserves. All the LE-MEDIA want to do is shove down our throats how great LeBron is in his 21st year. Respect due Bron'! That said, KD had a TORN ACHILLES that they said most players NEVER COME BACK THE SAME from. NOT KD!

The man is as good as he was BEFORE the injury...but I don't see the media highlighting that. It seems all they want to do is bash, disrespect and diminish the man. KD is one of the GREATEST SCORERS the game has ever seen...and people take him for granted. When the man is healthy he suits up, balls out, no excuses, no load managing...just execution on a high level.

Tonight: 18/26 fgs 4 of 7 from 3, 10 rbs 6 assists for 45 pts. Unfortunately, not enough support for the Suns to get the win. The man has 28k points in 17 years of basketball, let's remember he missed 2 years because of injury or he would have blown by 30k time ago. One of the most EFFICIENT scorers ever, and is a great defender but because he's such an ELITE SCORER his defense gets overlooked.

Let me put something in PERSPECTIVE for you: for his CAREER he's shooting 50/39/89...That's 50% from the field/40 % from 3 and 89% from the free throw line. That nearly 50/40/90 for his CAREER! That's INSANE!

Don't worry KD, if the media doesn't give you the credit you DESERVE you got many of us who will? He's Kevin Durant...YOU KNOW WHO HE IS! KD AKA DA SLIM REAPER AKA EASY MONEY SNIPER....FLOWERZ BEEN GIVEN. CARRY ON...

[DAFR]

Kevin Durant is the best player in the world, he’s in the goat conversation whether you like it or not !

[totsukablade]

It is a privilege to watch KD play basketball

[Croutonking]

According to the description, KD got 45 points, 10 rebounds and 6 rebounds. So many rebounds, they had to divide it into two separate stats

[_truthBtold]

Bro he cooked every Celtic that was guarding him with ease.

[zjczfcu]

KD reminding the world why Lebron never wanted to guard him 1v1

[chiefsandwarriorslover]

But people will still disrespect KD like crazy.😂

[Hamzethegoat]

KD did this against Celtics defense and against Gordon and the nuggets back 2 back games

[che]

this man is 1 of d best ever nba player in making his shot selection better than some of d best scorer ever d league has to offer FG%MJ 49.7%-, Kobe 44.7%, & Ai 42.5%. that's why he is so effective. KD 50.1% and his 3pt% better than nowitski, kobe, Mj, lary bird. win chips or not he will go down as 1 of d very few real hoopers n nba player ever

[trelllmaoyessir]

KD and LeBron only players only players to average 25 for 15 years yet KD isn't top 10 all time?

[TezzyDimes]

KD is a great passer, his vision is underrated as well.

[curtisnero]

Better than LeBron overlooked Durant book it!

[theocorgi]

KD has outlasted Steph and bron- Steph didn’t even try versus the Celtics with double the team KD played them with

[AlanAj]

#Suns and #Nets have robbed #Kevin Durant like 3 championships these young co-star fools can't be healthy.
