For context, the league average is 0, and San Antonio Spurs stud Kawhi Leonard led the Association last season with a whopping nERD of 19.5. NERD is a numberFire metric that measures the total contribution of a player throughout the course of a season, based on their efficiency. What did he do with those minutes? Let's see what nERD has to say about the whole thing. But Was He Efficient?ĭurant had to play a ton of nightly minutes with the Thunder (38.6), whereas the Warriors were able to keep him relatively fresh (33.4). Even with this Big Four eating up 82.9 points a night, the Dubs' Others almost matched the Thunder's with 33.0. had a wee bit of help from some scrubs by the name of Stephen Curry (25.3), Klay Thompson (22.3), and Draymond Green (10.2). The rest of the roster - a group Shaquille O'Neal generally likes to call "The Others" - combined for an average of 34.7.Īs for the Dubs, last season, they didn't have to rely nearly as much on Durant's offensive prowess as the Thunder did, because K.D. The aforementioned Thunder team had three players who averaged double-figures in scoring: Durant, Westbrook (23.6), and then-sixth-man James Harden (16.8). Here's what he did during OKC's run to the Finals, as compared to his work with last year's Dubs. Since the interwebs isn't stepping up, howzabout we compare K.D.'s trophy-winning 2016-17 Warriors with his championship runner-up 2011-12 Thunder?Īs has been the case since he suited up for the Seattle SuperSonics in 2009, Durant was a beast during the 2011-12 regular season. Were his OKC teams a big bowl of underachievement? Was it a numerically sound decision to bail on the Thunder and ink with the Warriors? Did the Durant/ Russell Westbrook-era Oklahoma City Thunder merit this massive, embarrassingly public diss? The interwebs, however, isn't addressing whether or not Durant is right. Kevin Durant's other accounts looking at him like /tb7R7R8ZIp Unsurprisingly, Durant is getting roasted up and down the interwebs. Hey KD you forgot to switch to your 2nd account LMAO 😂 /RpE9vTOx1T If that is the case, then he forgot to switch off of his personal Twitter account on Monday. Turns out that the oftentimes cantankerous Golden State Warriors star might have a different Twitter account that's used to defend himself against the so-called haters, of which there are apparently many. What he apparently doesn't have are social media skills. And in the surest sign of his hoops dominance, he has a really crappy filmography. He currently owns the fourth-highest scoring average in league history.
He's won MVP awards in both the regular season and the NBA Finals.
