Having such a high TS add is nothing to scoff at. There are also some arguments that he was better than Curry in the GSW era. I personally have him lower, but I wouldn't mind seeing some pro Durant arguments.

Not sure if this is a reply to me, but if you have to cherrypick a part of the game in response to a consistent chasm in actual results, then I wouldn't really describe that as "giving trouble", more "benig perceived" as giving trouble, wrongly.
