No. Youre getting caught up in the moment. Every superstar has had multiple 50 point games and hes actually trailing LeBron in terms of points scored after the same number of games.


I'd struggle to think of another player with his combination of height, reach, range, handles and speed in my time of watching basketball.

He's even developed the jumper off the wrong foot, which is insanely hard to do.

Wtf? I tuned in to see Mike James not even attempt to get the ball to Dirk then just hoist a deep 3....

Why was he even on the floor? Collison didn't seem to be in foul trouble.

Pretty impressive from Durant. I think Mike James might be looking for a new team pretty soon.

Durant a monster, show him respect he won the game.


With all that beiing said, if we dont get OKC Vs Lakers 1 vs 8 seed first round. And it becomes OKC vs Mavs 1 vs 8 seed first round. With Dirk fully 100% by then , it has serious serious serious upset potential. 2 times they have played 2 times went to OT.

Possibly could go down as the greatest upset in NBA history, keep that in mind.

21 FTAs on the road? The only other instance of that happening would be team playing Hack-a-Shaq, smh

Durant is the best scorer I've ever seen. I've said this before. If he wanted he could average 40 a game. He scores 30 a game and doesn't break a sweat. If he had the mindset I want to shoot 25 times a game and didn't care about getting his teammates involved 40 would possible. He scored 52 today and it was one of his worst offensive games of the year.
