    It was nice to watch. He makes it look so easy and this is probably the best part about it. But in the real games he seetles for jumpers too much imo, he is at his best when he is attacking the basket. Sure, he is a great shooter but he is a great, best in the NBA SCORER.

    I love his game, really, my favourite player to watch in the NBA now.

    People are so impressed by this, and just blow-off T-Will averaging a triple-double in the d-league, granted it was only over 3 games... haters. :grin:

    You gotta love the Duratula. I know, it's just summer league, but Rucker Park is a historic basketball monument. This is pretty cool, and it's something Durant will definitely remember for the rest of his life.

    Plus, it's nice to see guys that actually want to play basketball.

    This dude just loves playing basketball, that dunk at the end was the ultimate exclamation point.

    Other highlights from Brandon Jennings and Josh Selby.

    Thats how you celebrate a great dunk! That was so much better than the Twill dunk, and see that he doesnt took his shirt off, just saluting the crowd. :cool:

    That jump shot at the 20 seconds mark of the first video was very Dirk Nowitski-esque. He made a fadeaway off of the wrong foot. I wonder if that is something that he has worked on in the off-season. Could you just imagine if he could add a little Dirk to his game. That would do wonders for his alreay deadly mid-range game. :eek: IMO he is quickly approaching Lebron as the best of the best.

    Now that's how you become a fan favorite. You don't have to pull stunts to get attention. He's just going around the country playing basketball. I hope he stops by Fonde though.

    I think it's pretty douchy for Durant to hit a few threes over midgets and act like he hit a NBA Finals game winner by stopping the game for his crap faced look on his face. :p

    Wide open 3s, wide open dunks, and a whole lot of dribbling to nowhere. That's Brandon Jennings and Josh Selby for ya.
