The Feud Heats Up as Kevin Durant Questions GOAT Snub! Warriors Star Claps Back with Candid Response.
Kevin Durant recently wondered why he’s not in the GOAT conversation. He is one of the game’s best scorers and possibly has the most unstoppable perimeter game ever. His peers even call him the best offensive player in the NBA right now.
For Draymond Green, however, the answer is quite simple. Via The Volume Sports, Green thinks Durant has to do one thing to take a seat at the GOAT table.
KD, he said, ‘Because I went to the Warriors.’ He’s speaking on the GOAT conversation. Why is he not in the GOAt conversation?
I think KD is one of the greatest scorers we’ve ever seen. The way KD scores the ball is so effortless. He’s never seen a bad shot. Like, he going to get you 31 points on 14 shots. That is a normal KD night.
Obviously, I’m not the one that’s gonna be like, ‘KD’s championships aren’t real.’ Stop it. There’s no championship that’s not real. Steph didn’t get the credit that Steph gets today until 2022 when he led this team to a championship and won Finals MVP.
You gotta do what Steph did to get into that conversation.“
Draymond Green on what it will take for Kevin Durant to slip into the GOAT conversationGreen made some excellent points and kept it simple. The Golden State Warriors teams that won back-to-back titles were a cheat code and head-and-shoulders above the competition.
Obviously, the championships came with a price. Neither Curry nor Durant got the flowers they deserved because of the competition’s disparity.
Whether that’s fair or not is out of the question. The point is that those teams are too good to not win a championship and that minimizes what Durant did over his time in the Bay Area.
As Charles Barkley said, Durant needs to be the bus driver to elevate his status. If he does that, it will likely change the narrative to a more favorable one
