He's the epitome of old man basketball. He makes everything look so routine that, like Tim Duncan, you don't appreciate until you realize that the shots keep going in and the passes are going to keep on coming. That why until this playoff run so many fans thought he was a hipster MVP and not legit legit. Obviously he's been this good for a while.

I think that's what made jordan so great is elite ability and elite intangibles. Kevin just doesn't have it man, he needs structure around him to thrive.


Nets traded him at a good time I think. His value would've started to drop.

maybe, but maybe in a different situation he still produces. i just dont think he deals with adversity well

Guess they need Ayton after all.

it's a crazy take...dudes unbelievable and one of my favorite players to watch


Not surprising. People thought Duncan was boring too. Post Jordan/Iverson, that's what modern NBA casual fans want to see. I understand why the league and tv media leans so much into it because guard/wing isos are a part of what made the league as big as it is today in contrast to big men running the league.
