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

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 10 months ago (3 children)

KD got a fetish for that spot fr

[–] cortesoft@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The game 3 spot

[–] ketoburn26@alien.top 1 points 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months ago (1 children)

It already feels good in 2K...

[–] hastopre@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Fr im about to boot up 2k now

[–] bluebackpackedbear@alien.top 1 points 10 months 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 10 months ago

Better your ankle than KD's bro.

[–] Miyagisans@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Iconic spot for kd

[–] hotdogflavoredblunt@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I love all of these wild courts.

Oh also KD is the man

[–] crazier_horse@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

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

[–] Physx56@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago
[–] DefiniteSauce12@alien.top 1 points 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months 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 10 months ago

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

[–] Simer1003@alien.top 1 points 10 months 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 10 months ago

He’s hurt buddy

[–] juzzbert@alien.top 1 points 10 months 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 10 months ago

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

[–] Jeczke@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The new Beard To Be Feared

[–] Tsunami-Papi_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

bro loves that spot

[–] bl123123bl@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah I’ve seen that one before

[–] aeiou-y@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

LeBron is sweating bullets somewhere

[–] elbrandonoliver@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

The LeBron spot

[–] indabayou@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

These fuckin courts are horrible to look at

[–] jacobs0n@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

[–] PorQ201@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

True definition of a walking bucket.
