The thing to worry about is whether Durant will want to stay in the smallest market in the league.
Kevin Durant just finished the month of January shooting 50% from the field and 52.3% from 3...

you put up 25+ in 21 straight games on a team that is doing a decent job at winning games, you're starting to enter that territory.

My Favorite player!
He'll put up a 50, 40, 90 season one of these days, word to Nash and Dirk.

Durant does work... He's easily Top 10 in the league right now.
I'd really like to see him with another star player to boost some W's so his performances could be appreciated.

He really doesn't care about markets and %$+% like that. He's a reserve kind of dude. He doesn't too much going out and partying, etc. Not really the type to get jaded by bright lights and a big city. I don't think he'll have a problem staying in OKC at all. They treat him like a king out there.

Yea he seems really down to Earth. He always says the right things in interviews praising everybody else before himself and all of that, but really actually seems to mean it. Also, his shoe is "only" 84.99 because he didn't want to have a shoe that wa 150+ like other superstars where kids couldn't afford it and even at worse might resort to crime and things to get them. In fact, when he first signed with Nike that was the holdup. IIRC, he wanted them to make his shoe like 39
Plus, most of the people who talk *@!+ about "small markets" have never even been there. Besides the fact this dude shops at JcPenney's, it's not like he couldn't find most of whatever activities he was looking for right there in Bricktown; some great museums (Black Wall Street for example), restaurants, and lounges. Then, there's the much better cost of living and lower crime rate a "small market" offers.
We're still selling out the arena on most nights, and after his all star debut here in a few weeks (I got tickets btw, holla @ me) and winning H.O.R.S.E again, and hopefully his first playoff berth, his star will continue to grow and games will be on nationally and America will know his name.

The consolation prize in DC not having any shot in landing Durant as a FA, is landing Beasley
Which would be a disaster of epic proportions....

man i watched every game he played in when he was in seattle and i wouldn't believe he'd put up these type of numbers in just 2 years..
his shot selection has improved and he's added some bulk to his skinny frame, not to mention his pull-up J is all water
. how does he weigh the same as melo though? melo looks way stockier than durant.

He's not even in Carmelo's league. Dudes are bugging even thinking KD is on Melo's level yet.
Hold up. Im supposed to believe Durant and Melo are the same weight?

KD will get even better and the Thunder will keep improving----then the OP will find a way to hate both
KD is a beast. He's reached the stage of getting any shot he wants so his numbers are up across the board. His floor game will continue to improve then we're talking perennial all-nba first teamer

KD is a beast... I'm slightly surprised that he is that much better than Beasley as a pro.

Amazing what he does at 6'9''
And he doesn't force anything to score like he does.

They been running with 6'9 since his rookie year. I last seen him @ the Wizards game and he had a good 2 inches on Jeff Green who is 6'8/9.
