Kevin Durant finally breaks his silence, congratulating the Golden State Warriors on their NBA Finals win while commenting on his legacy being in question on social media. The Brooklyn Nets player is taking shots left and right now that the Warriors have succeeded in getting a title without him, and when it was suggested by a Twitter user that his legacy was now dead, KD responded that his legacy died back in 2016. Nick Wright and Chris Broussard share their thought son KD's response, and whether they agree his legacy is in question with the Warriors' win, especially after the Nets experienced an early playoff exit.

Cementing your legacy as an all time great involves more than just skill and talent.. There are a lot of skillful and talented players in the league.

But this is all time great... He needs to prove more than just skills.. Leadership and impact on the game must be shown

@milo6011 Год назад

I 100% agree with yo point but I disagree with KD being top 5 skilled ever offensively I’d say yes I’d say he’s the best natural scorer ever but in totality defense matters and he’s not even close to Akeem Lebron jordan Kobe Wilt Kareem These dudes were just as good and some better than KD on offensive and miles ahead on defense I believe that puts them head and shoulders above KD from a skill perspective

The counterintuitive, yet brilliant decision, by Curry to accept KD, sets Curry above and beyond other superstars, who, historically, would not sublimate their egos and accept a better player {arguably} on their team in pursuit of NBA Championships 🏆🏆🏆🏆

@LT-xb5su Год назад

This didn’t give us new info, just confirmed what we already knew. The warriors were literally a 73 win team, who won a ring the year before, and were 4 points from going back to back. Of course if you add any all star caliber player to a team already that good it’s going to become extremely overpowered. I think if you swap KD out with Bradley Beal or Paul George, history remains exactly the same. But one thing worth mentioning is the warriors those 2-3 years with KD are in my opinion the best team of all time. I don’t think any team in NBA history even wins more than 2 games against the 2017 Warriors, and even though they would win titles still, I don’t think the remain the best team ever if you just replace KD with any all star

Like you said, 2015 was without Durant. 2016 he lost to a very good defensive team lead by a mt Rushmore player ( no shame in that). The shame was more on KD for that corny move.

Was weak for both parties, but KD look the weakest.

@@gregoryevans8179 Yeah I don't like using the term asterisk in this situation but the previous GS titles felt less earned than this current one. It's tough because you can't blame the warriors for their luck, that's out of their control of course. I don't think it should count against Curry and his legacy- but it would have been MORE special if the Warriors earned their title like this years. Something about the Cavs missing their 2nd and 3rd best players the entire series in 2015 deprived that title of it's maximum glory- because the next year those same 2 teams, but with healthy players this time went the Cavs way so it does make you wonder. Then they added KD on top of how close those 2 teams were already in 2016 prior to him joining. KD wins FMVP in both 2017 and 2018. This years title though? There's really no narrative that can deprive the titles maximum glory this year. Steph and the Warriors aren't the only players/teams that have gotten lucky on their way to a title, and that's something people need to realize when they try to deny the warriors/steph of their due credit. All time great team, all time great player in steph, glad he finally got his FMVP.

Stephs been better then KD through their careers, KD is taller, cool, but Steph has done more then KD has, he’s impacted basketball more then he has, he’s a better leader, he’s a more loved player, Steph has just had the better career, so it’s easy to say right now at this moment yeah we’re looking at Steph top 10 all time instead of KD

@mhaiyaaj Год назад

Did you see what Jason Tatum did to Durant? He made Durant look pedestrian in their series. The warriors turned Jason Tatum into a turn over machine. The warriors don’t need KD as much as he needed them. Durant coming over to the warriors was an overkill. Any NBA player who is a little better than Harrison Barnes would have done Durant’s job. Without the warriors, Durant would have 0 championship.

Honestly Durant should join the Celtics as a SF and they can move Brown to SG, grab a couple bench players with finals experience and go after the Warriors and win it.

@danielshirley3267 Год назад

This may get a lot of hate but nobody denies KD is excellent, all-time great. But as it stands right now, KD is the greatest 2/co-star of all time. KD has been very good as the guy, but he’s never won a title as the guy.

KD is used best as a role player , a extremely high scoring role player in a team that has a solid play style already intact.

Whoever won a championship by themselves?? KD was the man in golden state. Just like when LeBron went to Miami and he was the driver based on his skill set, DWade was there a champion but LeBron was that guy. That was KD was in golden state. Long live the Raptors...when KD went down in 2019 what happened to the warriors??? Klay was there, Draymond was there and Mr Curry was there

do kd need to grow up or the media? they have been talking about kd for 3 weeks now even though he hasn't been in playoffs since first round.

Well you could argue that it did. He missed most of the season and hasn't spent much time actually playing with KD, IDC who you are, you need that time to have chemistry. You're not just gonna miss most the season then hop on the court in the playoffs and go all the way, it doesn't work like that.

@WealthbuilderzTV Год назад

@mrmillennium2697 Год назад

Idk a reverse way of looking at it is KD's legacy goes up just by the attention he's getting because of it. Fact is if he would've never went to Golden State we wouldn't even view KD on those standards. He'd be similar to Harden or Westbrook on legacy he gets two titles and much relevancy in the last 6-7 years. He wins in my opinion no matter what Golden State did or does.

@lakersworld2125 Год назад

When you win before him it’s already proven the current team can win so I’m not shocked one bit.

@heltvolt4403 Год назад

My honest opinion: KD needed the Warriors more than the Warriors needed KD. The proof is this year’s championship. I don’t think the Warriors would’ve won the 2017 finals without KD just like I don’t think he would’ve won a championship if he stayed at OKC. However, we cannot deny one thing: when in Golden State, KD CARRIED that team. He was simply their best player and it was not even close! But still, I think that the Warriors would eventually win another championships even if KD had never joined them. They just wouldn’t be as dominant

@ThesGt Год назад

Only reason why the moss comparison doesn’t work is because they didn’t win a ring while he was there, & then the next year Tom Brady had torn his acl. Also football is of a team reliant sport, basketball is a team sport as well but you carry you’re team “easier” in basketball than football
