That's my What-if Blazers legend!

Him in Portland would of been nasty.

Brandon and him, even with Brandon’s fucked up knees, would of been a ridiculous 1-2 option.

Plus, I think he probably/might have would of fit in better with PNW fans.

It's very interesting how much his game has evolved over the years

Athletically the injuries have definitely taken a bit of a toll but he's compensated by being a better shooter than ever especially from midrange

I'm starting to think this Kevin guy might be a big deal

How does this dude not get tired of scoring? Or maybe he's so bored he just doesn't care and keeps launching and they keep going in

preeeee - like reeee but to remind people it's preseason

It's all just so easy still for KD. 35 years old and remains an unstoppable scoring machine.

Good win. Not just Durant but the bench being able to close it is a great sign. Obviously it's the preseason so it doesn't matter but I imagine most people were expecting the Lakers to win since Beal and Booker were out while LeBron, AD and Reaves all played
