    He doesn’t need to lead. He literally just needs to fulfill his role. Kareem won rings at 37, 39, and 40. And we’re not in a championship or bust scenario, any deep playoff experience will be huge for Amen, Sengun, and the other young guys

    Jalen Green has us all scarred for life.

    Don't worry, there won't be any questions that Kevin Durant can put a run of good basketball together that lasts a month.

    Yes, I remember Kareem but he wasn't traded for to lead, and Magic led that team, that is the best case here, right? Amen leads and KD supplies old man bucket getting.

    KD won't be a 36mpg player, he can't be at this age, but he can be a 28mpg 20pt efficient scorer, and that is the hope.

    Last year he played 36.5 mpg at 36 years old. What makes you think he'd be unable to do something similar at 37? Not saying it would be ideal, just curious what makes you think he wouldn't be able to if he wanted?
