Healthy Kevin Durant just Reclaimed Best Player in the NBA Status

This dude is definitely unguardable. He doesn’t have an unstoppable go to move. He has unstoppable go to moves. Plural. He has that mid range pull-up, one legged fade from Dirk, crossover pull-up 3, and dream shake.

I thought Giannis was the best matchup against him since they’re both long and Giannis is one of the best defenders in the league. But KD treated him like a cone. Jrue (the best guard defender) even tried KD out of desperation but he gave him the low post shake for the easy basket.

LeBron was lucky that KD got hurt or else he won’t even win that bubble ring. Since Kobe retired (2016), the face of the NBA mantle has been shared among LeBron, KD, and Steph but if KD stays healthy for 3 more years and keeps this up, he may just become the undisputed one. Can’t believe this is his game first year out of an Achilles. I wonder how good he would have been if he never had the injury.
