What is his highest and lowest reasonable rankings for Durant for you right now?

I think he's in the 15-20 range right now. The highest I can see him is on the fringes of the top 10 but not quite in it so like 12 or 13 max I think. Lowest range would be like 25-30 but at this point you'd have to be incredibly harsh on his Warriors move and give him next to no credit for those years if you want to push him down that much.

Highest reasonable, is probably around 11th or 12th I guess, lowest reasonable you could probably have him around 21-22 I suppose. That’s a pretty wide range, but it all depends on how optimistic or pessimistic you are about his game. I’m not convinced he’s any better than say Moses who is in the lower end of the top 20 at best for most people. I think his portability and defense(even if overrated) put him cleanly above Barkley. I think it’s hard to rank him over Oscar Robertson, Kobe or Kevin Garnett but I wouldn’t consider it completely unreasonable.

If he finishes the season with reasonably good health he’ll likely be in my 22 spot (just behind Robinson/West).

I could see him as high as about #13 (lower on longevity than me), and on the low end into the later 20s (lot of stock into franchise building and fairly high on impact type numbers).

Can’t really see top 10 or outside the top 30 with ‘reasonable’ criteria.

In my opinion

High: just inside the top 15
Low: right outside the top 20

High: 14
Low: Somewhere around 25

Pretend like rings don't exist and just analyse play in a vacuum. Where would you put him?

I could see him as high as 10 or 11 and as low as 30-ish.

High: low teens
based on talent and accolades
Low: ~30ish
Harden, Wade in that region can also push 17/18 GS teams to champs
