    Here's the longer highlight video of KD @ Rucker Park:

    season being delayed is almost inevitable
    2 months away from the preseason
    months away from a deal being made


    i will remain as optimistic as i can

    Lower your rim to 9' and see how much easier it is to shoot the ball.

    That was awesome by the way.

    Why are people reminding us that he's playing against some guys at the Rucker who aren't NBA players.

    Nobody said what he did was the greatest performance in basketball history. It's just a video of him in a summer league game while the NBA lockout is going. I enjoy these videos.

    I'm not hating, but how is this hard for him?

    He tears up fools in the league playing real D on a normal basis.

    Tearing up guys at Rucker where D is nonexistent is hardly a feat.

    This would be like playin Nba 2k11 a Starter level for KD.

    Have you ever shot outdoors? Even the tiniest amount of wind can throw a shot off. Not to mention... 66 points.

    LOLOL. The guy makes four shots and now he is Jesus Shuttlesworth.

    Can you say Hero Worship?

    They need Billy Ho out that. Play some defense Billy.

    I believe there's a cheat code in NBA Street that allows you to do it. Enjoy.

    I would have just titled the thread "Kevin Durant Shoots Well at Rucker" if I knew the term "Killin It" would spark such debate.

    Honestly, I wonder if those here and on youtube that find it necessary to criticize this entirely unimportant game, and are pointing out to everyone the obvious in that KD is not playing against NBA players, are really ignorant to the fact that the rest of us are simply enjoying the incredible gap between the average streetballer and great NBA talent on full display (hence the term "Killin it") during this basketball starved time, or are just being dicks?

    Agree with you completely. Anybody who can't see this is just candy for fans needs a serious perspective check.

    This is where you don't want number crunching quant guys involved in sports.

    The title is plenty appropriate. "Killin it" is STREET BALL jargon, not professional analysis!

    If you went up against KD, and he was bustin 3's like that. Would you really try to step up and guard him in front of all those people? HELL NO. You would either get one busted in your face, or you would bust your ass after he broke your ankles
