Poll Does Durant Belong In The Goat Conversation?

[Goldie]

 

[Chi-Town B]

No, he piggybacked off of steph, klay and draymond to get rings and has done nothing since leaving the warriors

 

[Nope]

Nope
He went to direct rivals and after leaving them he ain’t done shit with either super team he’s been on

Plus he’s too emotional when it comes to people criticizing him

 

[5th Letter]

Yes. Based on pure talent.

 

[Suckio Andretti]

I mean from a pure basketball standpoint

He’s one of the greatest ever to play

 

[O.G.]

Talent- yes
Career- no

 

[Dwayne]

Accomplishments >>>>

He’s a great scoring talent from mid range and beyond.

Didn’t know that’s all it took to be considered a GOAT


Where the all defensive teams at?
Where the top 5 finishes for DPOY

Bruh ain’t been relevant in the post season for damn near a decade

He’s not even top 10

 

[Dwayne]

Yall two just saying shit fam

 

[Dwayne]

Throw AD in there too then

Throw PG 13 in there too because he’s the most talented.

 

[Dwayne]

Add harden too then.

 

[Rubato]

Vince Carter tier

Top 5 talent but that’s not all it takes to get you into the convo

 

[Mister B. M. Ed.]

Even WITH the two rings, he don’t come close to:

Kareem
Mike
Bron
Magic
Russell
Bird
Kobe
Wilt
Shaq
Duncan

Those are the Standard 10. Durant ain’t on those dudes’ levels until he win a chip away from Steph.

Especially when them winning one without him lk

 

[Dwayne]

Curry in the top 10

 

[SeaSnake]

Don’t he got multiple mvps tho

 

[Mister B. M. Ed.]

Don’t he got multiple mvps tho

No. He got the one, unless you’re counting Finals MVPs.

At this point, Jokic might be higher on the totem pole. Giannis, too.

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Yea he does

 

[The Lonious Monk]

I'm not sure how Durant can be in the GOAT debate when it's debatable whether or not he's even Top 10 all-time.

The only players really in the GOAT debate are Jordan, Lebron, and Kareem.

And Bill Russell.

Such disrespect to Bill Russell. Ain’t his fault the league was in toddler phases when his dynasty reigned supreme.

Bill Russell is the GOAT winner for sure, but as an individual player I can't put him up there. His individual stats weren't as impressive as the three I named. He was a defensive beast, but not quite as dominant offensively. Wilt had the opposite problem. He was basically a stat god, but he wasn't the winner the others were. When you look at the combination of winning, stats, and accolades, Mike, Lebron, and Kareem stand out.

KD a great player but no.
