Casuals and media noise aside, a lot of this new generation of hoopers has Kevin Durant as their GOAT. They gravitated towards the skill. You have to go to a gym though with players. He's the created player in real life and his formula was ultra successful. His influence on taller players is unmatched. He altered a position and evolved the game. You can tell it was surreal for Ant, the future best, to go against his idol. What's going to grow the legend of KD to the next gen is his ability to continue to perform and match them on any given night.

Stats may not pop out, but if the Knicks win this series and get to the Finals, this Karl-Anthony Towns performance will be up there as one his career best. He hulked up and put NY on his back in a do or die game.

When you let Russell Westbrook play with freedom, get downhill, control the flow offensively...his shot goes from not good to streaky. His rhythm as a shooter changes when he can be an attacker.

Anthony Edwards knows the game is about a bucket and the best player has to take the onus upon himself to close out tight games with his shot making. Real killer.

"I knew my NBA run was coming to an end when I refused to get the vaccine. The Mavs just stopped playing me after that and I had a separate locker room away from the team. It was super tough, but I didn't want to conform to that" - Trey Burke on his NBA exit

Ridiculous bucket by Cam Thomas. He jump stopped with his back to the hoop then rises up and lines everything up mid air to get it over Jaylen Brown. Pure hooper.

Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are the best wing duo in the league right now. Celtics shouldn't break it up. They just need to tweak their analytics heavy system.

This is how situational the NBA is. Nickeil went from a 3&D specialist averaging 9 a game in Minny to the go to bucket getter for the Hawks putting up 21 a night. Very talented.
