What's happening to Kevin Durant?

KD's one of my favorite players in the league. Why is he struggling so much? 3 points for this year's MVP?

Tony Allen's killer defense.

His on that Lebron James 2011 finals shookness

He was on a slump the last week of the season or so. He's played over 3000 minutes this year. No player clocking in that many minutes has won the chip in over a decade. Brooks was a jackass for running him into the ground.

He'll be fine though if anyone else on OKC steps up like they have tonight.

[Beastmode88]

It's actually very hard to watch his lack of offense game. He's been the top scorer in the league for the last 5 years. He took like 2 shots in the 2nd quarter.

[DMAVS41]

He'll get it going of course...especially if the Thunder win this game.

He's going to likely be a monster in game 5.


However, this is why we need the playoffs. Nobody saw this coming so far...nobody.

Although I'm sure some will say they did...doubt it continues though. My guess is that he comes out for a big 2nd half.

Yes, averaging 33/9/5. I guess that is about KD's floor at this point

Pretty great when Durant's 33/9/5 is the equivalent and considered as bad as LeBron's 18/7/7

If you watched the last weeks before the playoffs, you saw this coming.

You thought Durant, down 2-1 in a series, would come out and go 1-7 with 5 turnovers and look scared in the first half of pretty much a do or die playoff game?

Okay...

And let me guess...when he comes out and his a monster 2nd half you'll say you saw that coming as well...right?

This is exactly why judging players so heavily on the regular season and just talent is so flawed. Part of being a great player is actually doing something...not just having the ability to do something.

Would KD be better without Westbrook at this point?

[The-Legend-24]

Put KD in the East, and he puts up 60+ every game.
