I don't even think that he is on some hot streak. He is doing this great effortlessly. That's probably his average level on his new team. He is extremely consistent. He exploded in only 1 or 2 games max this season in terms of scoring so obviously he can still dominate way more when it comes to scoring on GSW. However, his overall dominance was pretty apparent in almost every game he played this season. Playmaking, rebounding, rim protecting, moving consistently off-ball, defending/help defending etc. He is becoming a better player. I think Kerr knows how to fully utilize his ridiculous talent on this team. He is a perfect fit there.

Another good game from him. Was really worried about the knee but thank God nothing serious. Love this comic book pic btw.

KD would have scored 40 if he didn't get hurt...i think that took alot of steam out of him.

I don't think he is seriously injured but it looked like it hurt.

Yeah true. I'm sure Kerr will rest him a game or two if needed.

10/13 then had the injury scare and missed his last 4,

Played great defense in the 2nd half, except for the late Jabari And1.

What's up with the right side KD?!?

That chart should be shown to everyone who thinks KD camps in a corner all day, 10 corner 3's taken this year? Extremely low amount.

You can see Durant getting more comfortable game by game. Wouldn't be shocked if he ups his assists to the 5.5-6 per game mark from here on out.

He was awesome tonight. Perfect game from him and did it effortlessly. I love how he always gets his teammates going on the court by doing so many different things. He is so unselfish and showing his amazing all-around play a lot this season. This is easily the best version of Durant. He learned a lot already from Kerr and this team in general. It's crazy to think that he can improve even more eventually! lol. He really deserves credit for being able to adjust his game, fully embrace GSW's breathtaking style of basketball and showing his amazing impact without hurting any player on the team which is not easy at all when a high usage player is added to 3 all-stars. He has mastered the system already.

His portability is insane. The Warriors offense right now is comical lol.

I said before the season that Durant is going to be more locked in than ever. He's having an incredible season so far.

kangarooaus · Post #238 » by **kangarooaus** » Thu Nov 24, 2016 8:17 am

Brilliant performance. Last season, he showed how incredible he could be playing a different style. (A lot less ball handling, more mid-post catch and react), this season, he's showing it again. This team is so fun to watch.

StepBackCrack · Post #239 » by **StepBackCrack** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 6:03 am

29 pts, 6 rbs, 9 ast, 1 stl, 2 blk
11/19 FG (57.9 FG%), 2 TOs, +35

Another great game from him. Ridiculous consistency.

clyde21 · Post #240 » by **clyde21** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 6:50 am

He's incredible in a free-flowing, ball-movement offense. It really showcases his versatility.
