Durant's weakness

Durant MUST get stronger. If Durant were to do this his turnovers will drastically decrease. Notice! most of Durant's turnovers come from him trying to dribble drive on a wing defender(mostly SGs & SFs). Usually those steals lead to an easy transition basket. So if Durant posts up and positions himself near the basket against smaller defenders this makes the defense to switch to a bigger,stronger, and most likely slower defender on Durant. So if the switch is made, Durant can easily operate with the ball on the perimeter with lower risk of turning the ball over.

You should take up this arguement with mother nature and father time. The kid can only do so much in the off season and if you have noticed the kid has already gotten bigger both offseasons. The kid is doing all he can. The kid was born a bean pole he is doing what he can to get bigger.

With the resources he has and his will to get better, this will be a non issue when he is 25.
