2014-15 he missed the full season, 2019 he missed most of the playoffs, 2020 he missed the full season, 2021 he only played 35 games, this season he was at about mid 30 games played and he's injured indefinitely again.


Durant doesn't get cheap shotted like kawhi does either. In 2019 2nd round he injured himself by running with no one even near him.

Durant and Porzingis have very similar slight overly skinny builds.

Issue was he was getting overplayed. Playing crazy minutes, esp in the playoffs last season and constantly doing 40MPG during regular season this year which is insane. A few elite teams are doing this which screams desperation on one side and having a yes man coach like Nash on the other. KD should be on max 32MPG playing time or take a lot more breaks if he's going to play 36MPG except for blowouts.

Durant is supremely gifted. But, man yeah, is he ever soft physically and mentally.

Kawhi won a championship with a bunch of role players and scored 732 points. Don't ever compare that skinny frontrunner shit to kawhi.

Sounds like Greg pop is a little mentally weak without kawhi by his side. How is that 12th seed doing for ya. The last time pop won without kawhi was 2007, that was 15 years ago.

He needs curry and draymond doing everything for him in order to not get hurt. I get it.

What other players are in Kawhi's era that have more playoff VORP then him?

Curry-Harden-Chris Paul???

If Kawhi is so injury prone, how come these other players are not running laps around him in playoff VORP?

The only current players who beat Kawhi are Lebron\Durant who been around much longer. Durant also cheated by playing on a prime warriors team when kawhi has never had another superstar teammate in his prime.

This is the truth spursm8 refuses to discuss, Pop is the “GOAT” coach but Kawhi and Danny Green have won far more hardware without Pop than Pop has won without them since they departed.

Pop is the best at hiding behind the accomplishments of his players and taking credit for “developing” them. If there was any truth to Pop developing star players they wouldn’t be fighting for a play in spot

Durant actually wasn't injury-prone for the first 7 years of his career (missed a grand total of 16), until 2014-15 when he got hurt (Jones fracture in his foot) and played sporadically in only 27 games.

From 2015 till 2018 he missed 42 games, and he missed the entire 2019-20 season recovering from that blown Achilles in the 2019 Finals.

Now, Durant has played in 35 out of 72 games in 2020-21, and 36 out of 53 (and counting) in 2021-22.

Durant has missed 125 games in the last 3 seasons.

point on...
You see Giannis has worked out in the weight room ... and it has helped him other than his knee issue.
Durant's arms could use the same thing , and once in gym you typically work on your legs as well.
I wonder when the last time he pushed some weights. ...

He's not only injury prone but he might have the lowest self awareness for any superstar in history as well.

We all know going to warriors was a dumbshit move.

Now he pairs up Irving and harden as teammates when they clearly don't like each other. It has exploded in his face and now their a 8th seed, maybe even falling out of the play in soon Hahahahaha

Kawhi is the most injury prone superstar playing right now
