Roberson bailed out Durant's terrible shot.

What is Durant trying to prove?

Dallas scored 31-freaking points in the third.

His defense leaves a lot to be desired and some of his shots...

This. His playmaking has been phenomenal tonight. But his defense has been too lazy and gamble-y and his shot selection has been pretty terrible.


This team needs, expects and relys on him to shoot alot guys. He is one of the best players in the world, maybe the most athetic ever. Thats how it goes in basketball, stars shoot and the rest of the guys do their part and are fine with it. Who else is gonna create better?

If Foye isn't going to make his wide-open 3s, then there's even less reason for him to be out there.

Durant can't even pay defense correctly, just clumsy

Just did a spin while Anderson walked to the rim

No one cares if he shoots.

It's the type of shots he takes that everyone has a problem with, they are straigth garbage and not consistent good looks. Just forces the issue way too often when he just isn't that great of a scorer. He's in the 36 percentile in isolation for a reason. 0.74 PPP

Westbrook and Durant have missed a combined 6 FTs. If they were just 4/6 on those six misses, we'd be up by 16.

37 year old Dirk has outplayed 27 year old Durant this entire series. That's an embarrassing indictment on Durant.

Kanter and Waiters saving Durant's ass. Who would have thought it.

Hes a wrecking crew out there, he does take some crazy shots, but he also can make them and delivers night after night. He puts constant pressure on the defense. His job is to attack and make plays and he does it extremely well. Hes gonna take some bad shots in the process
