When KD won he didn't have to lead. Jus join the ship thats already sailing. Just hop in and Hoop and display his incredible skillset. GOAT STATUS is about leadership, intangibles, will, ALONG WITH the SKILLS n TALENT.

He also blew that 3-1 lead. They could've been the one who beat the 73-9 warriors then maybe beat cavs also. THAT would've put KD in some serious talks fr. Cause from that point on, they could've had a dynasty on their hands. 2017 and 2018, cavs were gradually getting weaker. Warriors wouldn't have been so dominant without KD in it. Klay or steph would've been injured much earlier than 2019 for klay and 2020 for steph. That would put KD and the Thunder in much better position to win multiple rings. But instead we got this😂😂

Tbh the warriors could have won a chip even without the kd trade and kept harrison barnes. Dame joining the bucks, lebron joining the heat, dwight first stint joining the lakers. They all joined a playoff team that had finals success with a prime MVP that lead them. Among these only lebron at least won in different teams to at least be in the goat debate but the players who switched to an already good team with an mvp dimishes value and contribution. Dirk, giannis, and jokic are not even in the goat debate (yet maybe soon), and they stayed with their teams and bus drove to the chip.

Is this a recent video? If so, how come that guy is still allowed to speak publicly after all the shit he's done?
and ironically he might be there if he stayed and worked through al this criticism...people would have respected that
Unless KD drives your own franchise to the top of the World like MJ, Cavs LeBron, Kobe 2010, Curry 2022 or Kawhi 2019, he will never have his name mentioned in that conversation. Plus it's funny how this generation demands considerations that are normally supposed to come from the others.

KD’s one of the greats. Insecure people hate on him. Poor guy. But when it’s all said and done, KD’s legacy (not the legacy narrative of these ungrateful insecure haters like Green) will be much brighter than this loud hot-tempered dude. Without KD, they would have 2 season-gap thus no dynasty. Now they allegedly wanna recruit Lebron then what, drop him and call him bus rider? Hypocrisy. They crawling to be in the play-in and just keep basking in their past glory cos they know right they’re such a talented but still poorly performing team. Arrogance will be their downfall.
And some ppl still make excuses that GSW lost to the Raptors bc KD was injured.

@@OtakuTalkODthe key issue with all of these guys arguments that without kd cavs would’ve won is that these guys all act like if kd didn’t join the warriors they would’ve just had the same roster without kd. Too many variables but the fact the warriors had max cap space it’s realistic to assume they could’ve either got another top player or a few quality role players and went back and beat the cavs team that they went a 7 game series with. In my opinion with or without kd the warriors were destined to dominate those few years due to the huge expansion in the salary cap and the very team friendly contracts the warriors had going into that offseason

In other words, you have be a true leader. To the point where you literally will your team to victory. MJ, Kobe, Bron, Magic, Bird have all done this. Taken matters into their own hands to get the W, countless times. Most especially in the playoffs and finals.
The greatest choker of all time
He hasn't won without a 73-9 team. He has has some good ass teams and have done absolutely nothing. He was on team with russ and harden. Another team with harden and kyrie. Another team with booker cp3 and what has he done?
I mean, look, this goat thing is a hard one to digest. I mean, you don't hear Kareem name that often you don't hear magic. You don't hear Wilt don't hear larry Bird just your preference.
Facts that last Steph ring made me respect him the upmost . Ok he’s great but that championship was career defining. That’s why he cried . The other chips were goofy celebrations
I'm more impressed with KD being built like an akward tall ass 14 year old and not getting injured that much and the fact that KD doesnt shave his head and stayed true to his balding look 🏅
I mean tbh, Warrior did have their downs. Even after the chip, they had problem with offense late in 4th quarter because some of the vets are not there no more to push with the second unit. When KD joined. They basically fixed that problem and scoring was effortless for the whole team. I be honest and say Warrior wouldn't have won those 2 without KD either. I'm not saying Warriors was bad, but they was not as consistent for a good long stretch with the second unit at the time right before KD joined. Warriors fans knows what I'm talking about. Yes, Warriors still won after KD left but that still took a dent and had a lot of years not winning. If Donkey had shut his mouth and keep playing. Steph, Klay, and KD would've gone down to win another 3-4 easily and go down as the best super backcourt team in the NBA history. Donkey is good and what not, but I just cant stand his ego a lot of the times.

Kd sucks that’s why he keeps chasing and join good teams! Curry the real one ☝️ that makes his team to win every game!
I see no lies.
I agree 100%
KD still had 2 finals mvp. He still led the warriors those 2 years and could’ve gotten a three peat and a 3rd finals mvp if he didn’t get hurt. Toronto won that year because Durant was out and came back in the series playing less than 100%
When we talking like that pressure is on the line sure hes made last minute 3s. Kds probably my favorite player but the guys that want the ball last shot are the guys Larry Bird told a guy winning shots going to me same with Jordan and kobe. KD has the best fade away no look that's his move but goat conversations are for the guys gimme the ball last shot and ill make it mentality. Thats just my take though
Warriors don’t win those rings without KD who give af who driving very few can go to an elite team and be the best player on the team and win back to back chips stop it how can you be the greatest scorer and not one of the greatest of all time
Dray is the goat of getting kick out of games

But can KD beat 1300 KD in a 1v1 is the real question
Homeboys finally making sense
If you join the 73-9 warriors, while having a 3-1 lead on them the previous year on the okc. That’s just cheap imagine doing that. If he wants to be in the Goat conversation, he should’ve gotten it the harder way. Imagine if Mj joined bad boy pistons.

Green nailed it. Durant’s got to win one as THE GUY and not on a stacked superteam. People have more respect for the ONE title that Dirk Nowitzki won in 2011 and Giannis won in 2021 over Durant’s 2 easy rings because those other players led and carried their teams while Durant coasted with the greatest regular season team ever and an already champion that almost won back to back without him.
u dudes are high KD better than steph where steph at on all time scoing list is he top 10 like KD
As a GSW fan b4 the KD era i hated the KD era. I say that to say GSW should try to get KD again.
Well, theres a reason why steph didnt win mvp up until the last time they won the chamionship. The time kd was with the warriors, the most valuable player was kd cuz well, he won the finals mvp. Twice! People keep saying that kd wouldnt have won it without the warriors. But the warriors still wouldnt have won it without kd. So biased aside, kd proved that he can carry a team.
Exactly Draymond
Facts brother, now stop fouling so much and go crazy
Draymond was the same guy calling KD to join the warriors when they lost to Cleveland
Well you’re basically saying that the GS rings aren’t meaningful by using Steph as an example
He did not have to lead. I did not have to pay taxes. But we both did it anyway. He is not in the GOAT conversation overall. But offensively he is.
Curry is the GOAT
