How many times do I have to repeat myself? Look at who he's gone up against.
This is why college threads are bad ideas on the main forum. People who aren't serious about this and apparently can't read too.

[QUOTE=i seen hippos]He maybe beat UCLA in your dreams. lol
Like I said before, Big 12 has no competition for him at his positions.
Boggan is the first worthy opponent and he put up 2 more points, 9 more rebounds and 2 more assists...and won his team the game.
worst MSU team in over a decade.[/QUOTE]
ah thats it your right.
i get ucla/lsu all mixed up for some reason.
oh well, time to move on. nice to get these close losses out of the way though when its still early in conference play and still have Ok state in texas, kansas, a&m, tech left.
how does nova look these days? I know they have Nardi and Sumpter left, any type of threat or should texas take it?
its at nova..

what else more do you want him to do for now? Ok he went up against boggan, dove and mourgs or whoever that ugy was and dropped 37 and got 11 boards??
is he supposed to go for 50 every time against oklahoma, colorado and missouri?
seriously, you need to lighten up and accept the fact that he's the real deal...even though its hard for you to admit it.
Texas will win easily.
I can't stop thinking what would have been if Sumpter played last year. I don't think it would have hurt the chemistry in any way. They would have won it all probably.

I was talking to that other hoe. Geez.
And I even said some NBA teams might take him over Oden...what do you want from me?
Durant isnt much of a low post defender...largely due to being weak (size)
Durant isnt much of a passer
Durant handles are ok but needs improvement, he cant handle the way he does now in the NBA.
Durant needs to go up against some solid competition. Doesnt have to be big names, I'm talkin guys who are just solid all around, fundamentals.
Durant needss to stop fallin in love with the 3 ball. THere was a last shot oppurtunity and he pulls up for a 3 when he could have drove. There is where his handles come in. KG, Tmac guys he is being compared to have this and they have enough of it where they are playmaker. Right now Durant isnt much of a playmaker.
Basically he has room for improvement and criticism which is valid.

No no i want YOUUU to say what you expected from Durant so far this year:)
[QUOTE]I'm talkin guys who are just solid all around, fundamentals.[/QUOTE]
Thank you.
I didn't expect the stats he's putting up, but read Gobb's post above. Says it all.

Meh. fair points i guess.
Im a wolves fan, and i strongly disagree with KG's ability to handle the rock and create his shot.
Trust me, ill give you a chance to restate that, ole basketball god

Bogann was a power foward...Durant is a small foward trying to guard power fowards
[QUOTE=deion2123]Bogann was a power foward...Durant is a small foward trying to guard power fowards[/QUOTE]
Its how our line up is set up. Mason is our only legit g/f outside of durant.
Abrams & Augustin are built like pt. guards so durants going to have to guard PF's.
No knock on that though, nothin much you can do.
[QUOTE=God of BasketBall]Wow he drained a 3. Big deal. Whats your point? That he no longer is a STIFF? That he didnt miss a wide open layup? Make a point when you reply to me kid or take some sound advice and stfu. Right now you dont have a point...you becoming a female wanting the last word and just barking for no reason.[/QUOTE]
Yeah that he no longer is a stiff. That was my point.
A female wtf? You're callin me a *****? What the **** dude you're doing the barking. i'm not trying to insult you or anything but there you go just breakin my balls again. I'm just chillin watchin the game this lil beef you have for me is pointless.
so lets talk ball and just chill bro. durants amazing and I think he might be more of a scoring threat in the NBA than oden at some point.
[QUOTE=deion2123]Bogann was a power foward...Durant is a small foward trying to guard power fowards[/QUOTE]
If you cant refute nothing i typed then stfu. Hows that?
[QUOTE=final.wrath]Yeah that he no longer is a stiff. That was my point.[/quote]
He will forever be a stiff. That doesnt change with 1 shot.

Yea lets. :cheers: :pimp:
[QUOTE=God of BasketBall]He will forever be a stiff. That doesnt change with 1 shot. So your "point" falls on deaf ears because it disproves nothing. Only that you're impressionable and have a weird way of evaluating a player.
[I]"He missed 3 shots he sucks. Wait he made 3 shots he doesnt suck. Wow, missed 5 shots he is bad. Oh no he drained 4 shots he's money"[/I]
The kid is a stiff. Understand the meaning and get back to me.
Yea lets. :cheers: :pimp:[/QUOTE]
Boggan missed a easy lay up, i know for a fact he did.
is he a stiff? no.
**** happens.
agreed, lets move on.
do you think Durant will be able to attack the rim against NBA power forwards with ease like he does against college oponents?
[QUOTE=final.wrath]do you think Durant will be able to attack the rim against NBA power forwards with ease like he does against college oponents?[/QUOTE]
dunno, hes got the touch to keep them honest.
he's built like a freak(dont mean that in a negative way obviously) 6'10, silk touch.
i dunno who'd guard him besides SF's in which he'd have the height advantage.

Stop it, you know in your heart of hearts dude is a stiff. Needs a yoga class.
does he look like he has more upside than carmelo? I haven't seen enough of either of them in college to judge.

atchleys supposed to be camping outside the 3 pt line, not being our inside presense, it was a shame when james fouled out
Durant sure likes pulling up for that three. Doesn't seem to matter that there's a guy on him a lot of the time.
I'd much rather see him use his insane physical talent to get a better shot on his guy.
Durant's got a long way to go in terms of shot selection.
last night was bad.
part of bein a freshman tho, down 5 with 3 and a half minutes, maybe he felt pressure to close the gap.
they started goin down durin OT. in the 2nd half there were a lot of in and outs.
Abrams was ice cold yesterday which didnt help any
[QUOTE=God of BasketBall][FONT="Arial Black"][SIZE="5"][B]BAD SHOT DURANT AGAIN![/B][/SIZE][/FONT][/QUOTE]This Durant hater must be tears now:roll:
Hmmm seems okay, I think his ceiling is a solid role player, maybe a starter
