When he came in the league if you were 6’10-6’11 you were def playing the 4 which at that time would be todays centers plus way more weight than KD, he knew he wouldn’t have the same advantage as him playing at the 3 and taller than everyone at the 3, he didn’t want that beating on his body and wanted the advantage so he said he was 6’9 so he can still play the 3, it’s really not that hard to understand if you’ve been watching the game and understand the different eras
Kevin Durant use to be my favorite basketball player ever since I was a thunder fan. Until he pulled that betrayal back in 2016. Even tho Westbrook is my favorite, there will definitely NEVER be another Kevin Durant ever. He has the most unique performance for his body build in basketball history.
I know his name since years ago but never really knew who he is before Tokyo 2020. I can't watch anyone else but him playing. Been a fan ever since. I don't know about the drama, I just know he is one of the best player in this era.
Their is no way everyone is 3 inches lower than what their listed at. Ad said he lied about him being 6’9 before and supposed “6’9” KD is taller than him
Insane video quality like always. As a new video idea for the offseason, maybe you could make a video about the European Goat? Like which european Nba player in history has the best case for it? Is it Dirk or has Jokic already surpassed him? Or what about Giannis? Or Tony Parker? Luka? Arvydas Sabonis? As someone from Germany who of course thinks very highly of Dirk and would love to see him in this debate, especially given the circumstance that he had much less help on his team compared to Jokic (who of course has the ultimate playoff riser in Murray), I think this could make for a great video. You could do it similarly to one of your latest videos where you argued why the all time greats are not the goats but this time just the other way around with european players. With this, you could also reach a new more international audience. Hope to see this one day from you!
Lebron 6'8 bam adebayo taller than Bron and kd 7'1 since embied is 6'11.75 without shoes so he 7'1 in shoes and kd and embied are around the same height
As someone from toronto, we cheered when KD went down but we didn't realize it was a serious injury, honestly looked like he just twisted his ankle or something, there was no contact. Wasn't until he was still on the ground people realized how serious it was. All we knew is that our chances to win the finals went up.
plus you can’t say WE didn’t know. can you account for the thoughts of all the fans in toronto ? maybe you thought it wasn’t serious but you can’t say an entire fanbase didn’t know
People simply hate him cause he went to golden state and is just better than everyone else. But at the end of the day he was only there for 3 seasons and has had terrible luck since he left so get over it already 😅
I’m pretty sure embiid is taller than KD but because KD is way more slender that makes him appear taller but look at the shoulders Joel is literally the tallest player on TEAM USA
Nah, he's definitely not 7ft. Half the people you compared him to have draft combine stats showing the heights you said aren't true. Lebron is 6'7.5" barefoot. Cousins is 6'9" barefoot. Davis is 6'9.75" barefoot. Giannis is 6'10.5" barefoot. Embiid is 6'11.75" barefoot. KD is very clearly under 6'11".Anything in the 6'9.5"-6'10.5" is a fair estimate but there's a 0% chance he's 7ft tall.
@kavarishettlesworth5929 Whatever you say. I think he looks pretty similar just a bit taller. I think Wembenyama is quite injury prone. Idk. Only time will tell, am I right?
comparing Kd’s warriors pre-achilles stats to his post achilles stats is pretty disingenuous…. kd is playing a significantly different role on a completely different team in a completely different system…. of course his counting stats are gonna look better when hes the primary contributor on a team and leaving a team with curry and klay and cousins. Kd has definitely lost a step compared to his warriors days and hes not as good of a finisher at the rim. But he has improved his jump shooting significantly since then more specifically his midrange game has reached another level because of his lack of an explosive first step
I remain unenthusiastic about this sport due to its backend gambling and egoism. Some people take these sport stars as war heroes, they need to grow up. Learn the motives for making basketball popular in America. Brainwashed NPCs with baby brains absorbing all the smut and making quick judgments. Smh.
You’re wrong my brother Kevin Durant is 6ix9ine. The problem is the other players lie about their heights. That is what they legit 6ix9ine look like Joel Embiid is more 611 or maybe 6’10. DeMarcus Cousins is around 68.
Bro is criminally good
He did it cause he wanted to be a small forward
Cuz he’s to big of a bitch to lift weight
HAHA
When he came in the league if you were 6’10-6’11 you were def playing the 4 which at that time would be todays centers plus way more weight than KD, he knew he wouldn’t have the same advantage as him playing at the 3 and taller than everyone at the 3, he didn’t want that beating on his body and wanted the advantage so he said he was 6’9 so he can still play the 3, it’s really not that hard to understand if you’ve been watching the game and understand the different eras
@@mjjohnson7826 who cares 7ft sf just bc he’s to pussy to lift weight klove is 6’11” and played center and was weak no excuses.
This channel lowkey gives me Jxmyhighroller vibes
it's the music and the similar voice lol, very good video too
knew I was familiar with it
A lot of basketball youtubers try to mimick Jimmy in their own way. This guy does it well
fr he's good
first 5 seconds, I thought it was jxmy, this guy is amazing
I’ve always heard him called a 7 footer and everyone knew he was a 7 footer. I honestly never paid attention to him being listed at 6’9”
I remember back in the day when you could edit the rosters in 2K, I’d always edit KD and put him at 6’11 lol.
I think you were the only one who didn’t know this. His height was iffy the moment he played his first game and towered over everyone.
bro does not want to play the center
exactly if you played a 7'1" person at small forward that would just be insane
T Mac and KD two of my favorite hoopers of all time
2:47 Bro casually dropped the hardest Kevin Durant edit💀
This guy got the jxmyhigholler style and I fw it

KD can be any height he wants to be, he the 🐐
Jordan better
@@dopeyessirlol
skill wise i think kd is the best or one of the best but when it comes to acolades he gets overshadowed
@@dopeyessir jordan played in easy seasons bc his top competitors retired or died
@@dopeyessir your moms better than your granny in bed but just like what you said that's irrelevant
Or KD might be the only one not lying about his height tbh they all add inches in the nba
fr

appreciate the support bro :) I'll keep that idea in mind
This video deserves way more likes
Great video, thank you, Sir! 👍👏🔥🔥
thank you for watching :)

that was definitely the most fucked thing fans have ever done, no way they didn’t know it was something bad he was literally coming off another injury
plus you can’t say WE didn’t know. can you account for the thoughts of all the fans in toronto ? maybe you thought it wasn’t serious but you can’t say an entire fanbase didn’t know
@@rickysoup I was watching with a group of guys, why I said we. We all got quiet once we realized it was serious
@@rickysoup the injury he was coming off was a calf strain so you wouldn’t think it was an ACL tear
naw yall just terrible fans glad yall been losing
Warriors fan base loves KD. Haters will always hate...too bad for them
Hollllllyyyyy another banger
thanks homie :) you've been killing it too - let's keep rolling
Up until 2k17 I believe he was listed as 6’9. I always knew he was 7ft after seeing him side by side with Dirk
KD hate cause of twitter is CRAZY. Like bro he is also just another guy chill. Great vid man
Great video bravo well done
thank you bro :)
How was this posted 1 day ago? I knew this 5 years ago and I don't watch basketball except for the playoffs.
nique scored 29.9 after he tore his Achilles
KD’s my goat and I’m never going to change my mind
I watch KD for a hooper he is, he is my GOAT 🎉
seeing drake pat KD will always be goofy ah hell 😂
awesome prod!!
thanks homie :)
Bro should make a podcast
Gives him a break he just doesn’t want to be a center
2:58 "I'm Kevin Durant! You know who I am. Y'all know who I am"
OMG u are legendary for this
The greatest scorer ever
kd the purest hooper of all time. all he does is basketball
We need that Asian guy to find kds real height
Great video
KD might be the very first positionless player
People simply hate him cause he went to golden state and is just better than everyone else. But at the end of the day he was only there for 3 seasons and has had terrible luck since he left so get over it already 😅
2:58 HE DID IT! HE SAID THE THING!!!
Wemby could be the next Durant
Idk about y'all, but I've always liked KD
Fantastic video
thanks homie :)
“Lakers need a center” ad the same height as embiid
1:48 nice!
I always thought he lied about his height to get out of playing PF or C bro was 6'10" when he came in the league
Thank you
I actually forgot about his injury💀
bro how do u only have 9k????? this is legit top 3 documentary i have ever seen
I really appreciate that bro. It's a journey :)
😂Oh nahhhhhh 0:36
He’s 6’11 without shoes and 7 foot with shoes on.
how about if KD is actually 6'9 and Joel is just 6'10/6'11 and NBA just rounded it to 7foot............
Repent for your sins ❤❤dont burn forever but stay in paradise with jesus forever and the first step is to repent❤❤❤
I’m pretty sure embiid is taller than KD but because KD is way more slender that makes him appear taller but look at the shoulders Joel is literally the tallest player on TEAM USA
What if KD had never left the Warriors?
Good vid
2:59 origin of the thing hoopology does
Jimmyhighroller is that you?
Hate it or love it durant is the greatest shooter/scorer ever
Greatest SHOOTER?? Tff
KD better shooter than steph? Cmon now.
im kevin durant you know who i am
Hes kevin durant, you know who he is.
KD is the GOAT
People forget he literally TORE HIS FREAKING ACHILLES and came back to be a mvp calibre player
Jesus loves yo ❤
Nah, he's definitely not 7ft. Half the people you compared him to have draft combine stats showing the heights you said aren't true. Lebron is 6'7.5" barefoot. Cousins is 6'9" barefoot.

Greatest shooter ever
Hot take
bro howd u leave out the KD curse
I'm Kevin Durant You know who I am
legend
1:47 “he’s so long 💅😩”
lmao
Victor Wembanyama is the next Kevin Durant.
Naw
@kavarishettlesworth5929 Whatever you say. I think he looks pretty similar just a bit taller. I think Wembenyama is quite injury prone. Idk. Only time will tell, am I right?
Dang it ain't that deep he just dont wanna play center
wemby is the only one close to kd but not even wemby is like kd
comparing Kd’s warriors pre-achilles stats to his post achilles stats is pretty disingenuous…. kd is playing a significantly different role on a completely different team in a completely different system…. of course his counting stats are gonna look better when hes the primary contributor on a team and leaving a team with curry and klay and cousins. Kd has definitely lost a step compared to his warriors days and hes not as good of a finisher at the rim. But he has improved his jump shooting significantly since then more specifically his midrange game has reached another level because of his lack of an explosive first step
I mean the fact that KD was the clear number one option on BKL coming off the Achilles and delivered is what makes it so impressive
He’s 6’10. The others are inflated
Bol bol left the chat
no way this dude isnt jxmyhighroller
He's 6'11
*KD 6'11.5*
It's already another Kevin Durant it's Chet Holmgren he even plays for Thunders he can dribble and shoot like Kevin Durant
Unfortunately he cant back down cp3😂
Glase
You was cooking till you talked about his warriors move started basically disrespecting him, the went back to cooking again .
Bro you just learned this?
"There will never be another KD"
*Victor Wembanyama enters the chat*
Cap
In my opinion
Steph, LeBron and KD are all in the same tier above everyone else, I can’t say either is better than the other.
And now they are in the same team! How on earth can you beat that? 😂😂😂
Or maybe kevin durant is 6’12
Bro is a certified LeBron hater lol
KD, is that you posting videos about yourself?
maybe
Kevin Durant has had a big 3 on all 4 teams he has been on
Phx ain't a big 3 Beal is a bummer who put up points on a poverty team
bro just copied jimmy highroller i can't support this im sorry i hope you understand
1:47 girls discussion about me
u mean yall couldn't tell like 5 fucking years ago
2:25 most people like KD? Definitely not lol
rewatch the clip vro
Durant one of the best players of this generation
But he's mentally weak and he's not a fighter
long?
ayo?
Why he lie give me reason bro
i mean would you rather be 7'0, or 69 lmfao bros a memer
because he wanted to be a small forward
We Do have another kevin durant, and its Wemby
Wemby is a clear cut Center hes direct comparison is probably Sabonis cause of similar height and Talent
@@MortanAMrka modern day wilt chaimberlain or Ralph Sampson is what I got
Opinion: NPC comments and NPC video.
Bro thinks he's the lone wolf main character above the NPC's 💀
This is KDs burner 🤣🤣🤣

Just use metric system. Usa is strange.
