I've been critical of KD over the years because a lot of the time it looked like he didn't have the fire, like he was just coasting and getting his when he felt like it

But Durant this year looks like a man on a mission, he's playing like a killer

[–] Ingrownpimple@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

First time seeing this court and I’m not sure if I’m suppose to say this…but I like it!

[–] jwhiteford17@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

KD got a fetish for that spot fr

[–] cortesoft@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The game 3 spot

[–] ketoburn26@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Even his first ever gamewinner ever in his career which was against the Hawks was from that spot lol.

We've seen this movie so much it's almost inevitable.

[–] DaYvngGOAT@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

He’s so good man. Imma write off last two playoffs as him getting injured beforehand and not being fully healthy when he returned

[–] MattAU05@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What’s funny is that you’re writing off the 2023 playoffs where he averaged 29/9/5 on 60% TS. The bar is so insanely high for him, that stat line was a disappointment.

[–] BlueHundred@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Celtics gameplanned him better than any team I've ever seen. He was constantly tripled on the catch. It was a masterclass in defense.

I personally thought KD played pretty well last playoffs.

[–] Mysterii00@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Man has been to the line once this game too. Absolute beast of a human. Cold af.

[–] SageTheBear@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

KDs shooting and control is so good he would still be a cold at 6’3.

Him being that smooth at 6’11 is just unfair. His shot might be the hardest to disrupt ever. KD seems so unphased by contests against him.

[–] Mach27@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Gd, commentators sound so defeated lmaoo. Can't blame em tho, that's his spot every time.

During his post-game interview he said he was going to attack the rim, but he liked the rhythm of his bounce and decided to pull up. It’s kinda sick too, cuz you can see the flow of the dribble, the drop down and pull up. Cool to hear his insight that he felt that, and made the split second decision.

I wonder what it feels like to hit a clutch shot with the game on the line in a hostile environment. Shit has to feel like a drug.

[–] Dagrix@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It already feels good in 2K...

[–] hastopre@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Fr im about to boot up 2k now

[–] bluebackpackedbear@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I did it once in 8th grade at a basketball camp over a kid that hated me at a basketball camp. That shit felt amazing. I imagine doing it at this level has to be better than sex.

When is the media gonna give him the love they’ve been giving to Bron for the absolute nonsense he’s been pulling so far this season

My ankle just started healing after a bad sprain and I rerolled it jumping to this play lmfao, suns injury luck spreading to the fans now 😭😭

[–] Capo_capo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Better your ankle than KD's bro.

[–] Miyagisans@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Iconic spot for kd

[–] hotdogflavoredblunt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I love all of these wild courts.

Oh also KD is the man

[–] crazier_horse@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Finally a “dagger” highlight that’s actually a dagger

[–] Physx56@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] DefiniteSauce12@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is that bad defense in terms of recognition and the amount of space he gave up? Still a tough shot but as a defense, that is the last thing you want to give up

[–] Single_Minute2829@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That court is beautiful, I hate Utah but I’d love to have an in-season court like that.

[–] Ezymandius@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I need the photo of kd keeping that hand up with dude leaning against his chest like his gf at a post malone show.

[–] KDslimreaper@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What's the defense meant to do here? rush to double him?

[–] Simer1003@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Where’s Walker Kessler? Wasn’t he the next DPOY or something?? I swear he was the second coming of Jesus and he can’t even see the court anymore

[–] JazzPlusEagles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He’s hurt buddy

[–] juzzbert@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

For some reason this reminds me of when he dropped 50 or wtvr at Rucker park and all the kids swarmed around him like he was Jesus. Maybe it’s the spot he shot from or something.

[–] PanthalassaRo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Man this might be the worst court, I had trouble following the jazz players.

[–] Jeczke@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The new Beard To Be Feared

[–] Tsunami-Papi_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

bro loves that spot

[–] bl123123bl@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah I’ve seen that one before

LeBron is sweating bullets somewhere

[–] elbrandonoliver@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The LeBron spot

[–] indabayou@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

These fuckin courts are horrible to look at

[–] jacobs0n@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

[–] PorQ201@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

True definition of a walking bucket.
