NBA - Main

David Thorpe actually talked ab this on a podcast recently.

there's actually more people than you think that are tall as Kevin Durant, can dribble and shoot like him— and are not in the NBA.

none of them have the basketball mind that KD does however, that just comes from playing and experiencing a ton of basketball.

i remember another podcast talking ab how KD as a high schooler would come up early to shoot hoops before Team USA practiced, watch their practice from the bleachers, then continue shooting after they wrapped, doing like 12 hour days at the gym.
