🚨 KHAMZAT CHIMAEV KICKED SEAN STRICKLAND DURING THEIR FIRST FACE OFF AND THEY HAD TO BE SEPARATED

OH MY GOD THIS IS INSANE 😭 #UFC328

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

Those saying Kevin Durant “quit on his team in the middle of the playoffs” are clueless.

KD played in 78 of 82 games this season… at 37-years-old.

He suffered an unlucky knee injury in practice and missed Game 1.

He played through injury, and suffered ANOTHER unlucky injury to his ankle in Game 2, which he played through.

This injury usually sidelines players 2+ weeks… KD is going through around-the-clock treatment. That’s why he’s not on the bench.

The Rockets aren’t as good without KD. That’s why they’re down 3-0.

Don’t buy into online narratives. KD just had bad luck, and is still the main reason the Rockets were a top 5 seed this season in the first place.

Nets Kyrie was a demon son 😭

[Above ALL Takes @TheVeridion]

A 37‑year‑old, post‑Achilles, top‑3 in offensive rating, top‑2 in net rating, top‑2 in gravity, top‑2 in defensive FG impact… and he’s not top‑10 or in MVP conversations. The disconnect between performance and recognition is the real story.

[Steven Adams Stats @funakistats]

Kevin Durant’s FG% vs Cavs was 64.7%… 20% better than the expected FG% of 44.7%, if he was an average NBA player.

Here’s the expected FG% of each of his made buckets…

« Un joueur légendaire »

L'hommage de Jokic à KD 🫡

« « Il a besoin de si peu de temps, si peu d’espace… Il a rentré un gros 3-pts en fin de 4e. C’est un scoreur incroyable, un joueur incroyable, légendaire. Donc face à lui tu essaies, en gros, de faire en sorte que quelqu’un d’autre te batte. »

QU’EST-CE QUE C’EST BEAU QUAND KEVIN DURANT RAYONNE 😭😭😭🍯

[ᵂᴵᴸᴸ @BiasedHouston]

Kevin Durant is doing EVERYTHING for the Rockets right now. He’s defending, he’s playmaking, and you know he’s scoring the ball.

This. Is. Why. You. Trade. For. Him.

[ᵂᴵᴸᴸ @BiasedHouston]

Get the ball to Kevin Durant and get out of the way.

Kenny Smith: "I gave both of my championship rings away. I gave them to the people who were the reasons I got them. I gave the first to my father and the second to my brother. Without them, I never would have won them so it's only fair they get them."

Charles Barkley: "If that's the case, you should have given both of them to Hakeem."
