KD should have just went to the Lakers, all would have been forgiven I obviously don't care about what he did, he already proved he could lead a team to a finals in OKC, GS just proved that he could finish it.KD ultimately is 2 for 4 in the finals, and is the best offensive player of his generation, arguably ever outside of Jokic. His versatility on defense is also always overlooked, as very few players have been able to guard the perimeter, and be the weak side help on defense. We saw how that looked when done right in GS, and it was devastating.
From a skill standpoint, KD is easily Top 10, and there won't be much arguments against it. From a skill and career standpoint, it gets a little tricky, and I said 17-19, but did so with the expectation that Jokic and a few others will surpass him. Right now, he's actually closer to 10 than most of his detractors would want you to believe.
He's already a tier above Malone and Barkley, and all your favorite players who didn't win rings. He's just more of a threat than your favorite players who only won 1 but were more one dimentional like Dirk and KD.
He will always be a tier below guys like MAgic and Bird/Kobe because he doesn't have the accolades, and those guys were GOATs of their era respectively.
So ultimately KD's final resting place in the rankings will come come down to how much you value him more than Hakeem, Wade, and other players of that calibur. I think he's better than Wade, and slightly behind Hakeem unless he collects more hardware. So I rank him 12th right now All-Time.
He's essentially Dirk/TMac on offense, and Bosh on defense. People saying Giannis over KD are strait bugging
