    Default Durant WILL be a beast

    That's right, there's been alot of cheap shots on this forum thrown at my man KD, but trust me he WILL be a star in this league. Once the Sonics settle on a pg, move KD to his natural small forward position, the sky will be the limit. In his last 9 games he's averaging 21.4 pts on 50% shooting.....meanwhile having to play shooting guard after one year in college as a power forward.....19 years old.......this kid is NICE!!!!!!!

    Agreed. A lot of hate for Durant on these forums, though recently he has been lighting it up. Pretty much every game he is shooting 50% now. He probably had a talk with his coach, who told him to calm down on offense and take good looks and not force it.

    i think the main thing people have to remember is hes 19 years old... give him 2-3 years and he'll be doing some amazing things

    yea but the sonics will still miss the playoffs in the next 3 or 4 years to come, unless they make BIG changes in their roster and coaching staff, anyways, this kid is amazing, I see him fitting into more of a sf position next year, which will allow him to blossom even more, I don't know why there is so much hate, I see him averaging 25 ppg next year on a 45% shooting.

    Why move him to SF? If he's quick enough, having him at SG and having a big line-up would benefit the Sonics. Imagine a line-up like this:

    PG:6-6'3
    SG: Durant
    SF: Green
    PF: Wilcox
    C: Swift

    Unless the PG is Deron Williams, Baron Davis or Chauncey Billups, that lineup would suck. What's your point?

    Right now for the season Durant is at

    41.1% from the field, 28.0% on 3's and 87.6% from the line.

    Overall that is actually more efficient than Lebron as a rookie who shot

    41.7% from the field, 29.0% on 3's and 75.4% from the line.

    Not too far away from Carmelo as a rookie either and he shot

    42.6% from the field, 32.2% on 3's and 77.7% from the line

    Durant also doesn't have an NBA ready body like the others did.

    Lebron was 6-7 and 245 pounds already when he was drafted while Carmelo was already 6-6 and 233. Durant is only 215 at 6-9. If Durant can get up to 230 or 235 watch out. Plus just wait until he gets use to NBA range 3's. Combine that with his freakish length for a 2 guard, great scoring touch, athletisism ect. and he could be winning a few scoring titles himself. This kid is already shooting 88% from the foul line and he is only 19 years old. That's impressive.
