When discussing the best players in the NBA, the conversation in the past usually revolved around Kobe, Lebron, and D-Wade. Be prepared to add another player to the mix. In only his 3rd year in the league and at just 21 years of age, Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant is averaging an MVP-worthy 30 pts per game this season, and has established himself among the NBA elite. From Dec through Feb, KD went on a tear like no other, scoring 25 or more pts in 29 consecutive games. For those curious, only some dude name Michael Jordan has done better, with 40 straight games with 25+. Durant also played in his 1st All-Star game this past Feb. It's a shame Seattle residents weren't able to pony up the dough for a new arena a couple years ago to keep the SuperSonics and the Durant show from moving to OKC.
I agree that Kevin Durant is awesome. I also hope to see more of his teammate Kyle Weaver!
