I get that Oden got unlucky with injuries, but I still can't believe KD didn't go #1. Watching him in college, it was already clear that he was going to be one of the most talented offensive players of all-time. He had more of a post-game at 19 than LeBron did at 29.
They still haven't got over the finals beat downs against the Cavs. With lebron not making the playoffs all they talk crap about other players to make themselves feel better
It’s not that it’s like you said greats Lose. I just hope the rest of the fan base keeps that same energy for everyone else. When LeBron lost the finals it wasn’t greats lose, the narrative was that he’s trash but with KD we have to give him a pass and say greats lose get over it. Not hating just saying what I see
The way he scored then hasn’t changed much to this day. Thats why his moves are so refined and it doesn’t matter if he’s contested since hes done it so many times
@@faceripper77 you’re a child watching kd on the warriors is the best basketball we’ll ever see it was so fun to watch the ball move from player to player
Man, if Portland knew the way the NBA would evolve, history would be so much different. He was a college player so good, there were hardly questions if he'd be a star in the NBA.
I remember this game. I was in high school. I remember being amazed at how tall he was and moving like a guard that he stepped out of bounds in the corner while attempting a three.
Ku also won the NCAA tournament this year it was a great time I just graduated from ku that year !! Hated when we had to play Durrant lol jeez this year had chalmers, Durrant ,Rose, and Acie law and they all got drafted
@@sukvinderpowar49 They are two different people bro. This guy plays completely different to Kevin Durant from the NBA, I can see the comparison though, their playstyle is somewhat similar.
Took us way back Yung KD classic before the handle before the separation but by this film u can see what was set to happen a gifted premier scoring in the NBA was on his way but give credit, he up his game tremendously b/c he looked like a solid Power 4 today he easily all three positions on any night!
Just saying, this man has come up short so many times NOT because he wasn’t “the guy” but, because of selfish arrogant teammates that robbed him of his time. I’m glad he did his thing and won his rings. He deserves them and years later nobody gonna give a damn about these lames saying those chips don’t matter. He’ll, they’re irrelevant now.
Are you jokin kid? Hes the one that shot them out of the series against the warriors.. ya know, when the thunder were up 3-1? He took terrble shot after terrible shot and effectively blew the series. But keep talkin out your ass.
@@steveharris1740yep it was jordan vs pistons type of deal kansas had a complete team alot of very good players in that time rush Chalmers to name a few
This guy is going to be the MVP of the NBA one day. I hope the team he’s on gets him the right players around him. Or else he’ll join some All Stars and form a super team.
Used to think bballers are always built physically and should have basic basketball skills. Watching Durant shows that it is not about the physical but the mental part of the game and have a eagle eye to be a Champ even when it is not even playoff. #heisthetruechamp
I understand Oden was a monster, but its crazy that Durant wasn't the consensus number 1 pick. Already a 3 level scorer in college at nearly Oden's height.
@@SE154eva Christian Latimer, Grant Hill. Off of Duke, Chris Webber, Larry Johnson, etc. He didn't dominate college like that. Even Melo had a better freshman year and won the title
@@bruh8559 I agree with you, but I was responding to the comment of "I doubt we see another prospect who is 6 ' 10 with a deadly jump shot" and there are a 2 European 7 footers in Dirk and Porzingis that's playing now and others just like them coming out of Europe. We'll see a lot more in the future because big men in Europe don't like to bang in the post and are usually stretch 4s and 5s?
Doesnt matter. Movies get critized by analysts, even though they dont make movies themselves. You dont need to be/do better than someone to analyze and critique their actions. Dumb argument that is used way too much
ua-cam.com/video/Kz9T9iy_jdU/v-deo.htmlsi=YH5P85X0voplWtze
Just a reminder that kd was always a monster
Ikr KD always knew how to shoot in college, it's stupid people comparing college players that can't shoot to him.
Facts lmao I remeber I picked Texas to win at all based on his performances they also had a dj augstin ended up losing in the 2nd round
Damn sure is even in college
Crazy how he wasn’t nearly as mobile in college and played like a power forward. He really put in the work to become the KD we know today
He's the biggest pussy of all time. Was my favorite player until he took the easy way out. Pussy.
Filip Milić says the pussy hating behind a screen and taking time to be a bitch on this video. Stay off youtube kid.
Crocs and he making millions of dollars and winning championships and what u doin????
@@filipmilic7198 cryy bitch
keep in mind he played one year in college so most of his learning was in the NBA
I will forever be thankful for Durant making Texas decent at basketball
Young CP3 watching college hooper KD. 14 years later and they’re both super stars of the league!

Trust yup
HE IS KEVIN DURANT!!! MY GOAT!!!!
People really took time out they day to hate on KD shit happens greats lose games the goal was to get to NBA and he accomplished that
They still haven't got over the finals beat downs against the Cavs. With lebron not making the playoffs all they talk crap about other players to make themselves feel better

globalicon2012 wow you must be fun at parties.
Just L3-6ronsexual's triggered because L3-6ron is going to be on the couch watching the playoffs
The man is a born Winner, Leader, Superstar, incredible NBA player!!! We love U K.D!
The way he scored then hasn’t changed much to this day. Thats why his moves are so refined and it doesn’t matter if he’s contested since hes done it so many times
Finally someone who watches the game. I've seen so many comments saying the opposite, shows me why I don't argue sports anymore.
Durant was born to play basketball😏😏😏..what a skill for a big guy.
I remember durant at texas like yesterday. Man time flies.
Durant was a better college player than Zion. Period
free diary NIGGA u smokin sumtin
SwErVo _69 he was better than Zion
W
And he didn't give him Zion's marketing... Smh KD Will has 4/5 rings with NBA finals mvp in all. Better than lespn
duh lmao
A court full of NBA talent and Durant makes them look like kids. That’s how you know he’s an All-Time Great!
Christian Harris an all time snake

I remember watching this live. I need this jersey KD
The next year Kansas and Texas met again in the championship game in the best college game I’ve ever seen.
Yeah, I remember that game...epic!
Kevin durant- i know I aint drop 37 and lose 😂
ThinkItsAGame -_- His shorts weren’t baggy enough. If he had baggier shorts my man would have gone for 50.
ThinkItsAGame -_- imagine dropping 51 and losing in the finals
Kawhi Leonard:Hold my beer
his team was good too. DJ augustine and AJ Abrams were sick.
Lol when you drop 37 in a major conference final?
Back when every play in college basketball was not called a foul
Looking at this video now, I can't believe people ever believed he is only 6 ft 9
Josh Dorrance he was 6’9
@@biggarah11 at the age of 16 maybe hahaha
In think he was here. But hey people still grow when they get to the league. Like Giannis for example.
Ku also won the NCAA tournament this year it was a great time I just graduated from ku that year !! Hated when we had to play Durrant lol jeez this year had chalmers, Durrant ,Rose, and Acie law and they all got drafted
Arguably the best freshman season in NCAA history.
Carmelo Anthony (Syracuse) 🏆
Nah bro melo
Crazy that this game was played in OKC... from how he put them on the map and now CP3 plays there again
I can see the bright future of this young man in the NBA I hope he wins a title
Lol 😆 his a NBA great already havnt you seen him his 33 years old now

Certified Scorer can shoot from anywhere hard to guard KD all u can do is your best
Wow, this guy is really good, I think he can be a top scorer one day in the NBA.
This kid looks like he might make it to the NBA one day..
It was clear at this time he was most special college player in the nation
He seems like a promising young man. I hope he goes the NBA
Durant was the best college basketball player of all-time
This kid has potential. A little skinny and lanky for the NBA but that shot is hard to block. Might be a future MVP if he keeps developing.
Potato The Penguin might be a future snake also he’s lengthy like one
Dejuan Is ass You right you right
He also has the skill set to one day be an NBA Champion.. all he would need to implement are 3 all-stars in his team
I think hes also capable of good business decision skills like going to a team that he cant beat in the future maybe
Lauriel Smurf Lol if you can’t beat em, join em
Lauriel Smurf yeah that’s exactly what you call a snake
Game played in Oklahoma City.
Same arena too, they just changed the name
Damn that no.35 texas kid is not bad. If he keeps practicing he might just make it to the league!

He was always been monster lol
I just don’t understand how KD wasn’t drafted No. 1. Dude was a straight up DEMIGOD in college!!!!!
Cmon bruh Kd the goat man he just needs curry and Klay and boogie on his team and then he’d win that game forsure forsure 💯
Right? Choking from the jump!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
@@nightgoggles9931 LeBron needs 3 allstars to even compete 😂😂😂
@@Uryū_Ishida3 He's never played with 3 allstars ever before.....I think you're talking about KD? LMFAO PUSSY!
Says the dude that’s a bitch with rabies
The talent gap between him and everyone else is comical. Great video.
Jordan, Kobe, and KD same breed..
texas blew a 20 point lead
Nope. Kansas beat their ass back and erased' the lead...Durant was easy to play against. Completely took Augustine out of his rhythm at times.
That was the same KU team that won the national title the next year...so yeah, Durant was a great player but KU was a great team.
@@steveharris1740yep it was jordan vs pistons type of deal kansas had a complete team alot of very good players in that time rush Chalmers to name a few
Looks like Kevin Durant is joining Kansas next season
Potato The Penguin underrated comment. I know the inside joke. 💯
Please explain
Nvm I got it
He's in the nba now tho
T Jordan you don’t get it..
This guy is going to be the MVP of the NBA one day. I hope the team he’s on gets him the right players around him. Or else he’ll join some All Stars and form a super team.
Durant is a man out there with boys at age 18 why did he go to college they should have made an exception
Most prolific scorer since MJ
Not close
He will surely be in NBA✊🏿
Oden was a beast in college but KD was already the guy. Crazy he didn't go #1
Crazy in school when u walk the hallways of college u see him everyday n dont think nothing of him that would be the person he is today
Kevin durant
He had the exact same shot even as a teenager that why he’s a great shooter💯
Used to think bballers are always built physically and should have basic basketball skills. Watching Durant shows that it is not about the physical but the mental part of the game and have a eagle eye to be a Champ even when it is not even playoff. #heisthetruechamp
damn. I miss them hiphop jerseys lol
Was here cuz of his interview with Dray
I understand Oden was a monster, but its crazy that Durant wasn't the consensus number 1 pick. Already a 3 level scorer in college at nearly Oden's height.
Man has the ability to score. For sure he will become a talented player in NBA 🤔
One of the best players ever.
#1. LeBron
#2. KD
#3. Jordan
lol
Shocked by the size of his feet. He needs to be careful or else he might end up stepping into the three point line when attempting a game 7 winner.
Durant is the king of the his school
Definitely born to score the ball.
the craziest KD game I saw was Texas OK State 3 OT game
Best offensive player I've ever seen.
10 years after this he wins his first ring
He is an amazing scorer hope he doesn't become a snake just to win championships with an overpowered team that already has Klay Draymond and Curry
Corny
Smh stop hating that shit is old
Try a new one
@LionsAllday DETROIT it's not hate. That's just the cold hard truth
Draymond is overrated af
deserve NO.1 pick
U can’t see the future even if u tried…the all star pg court side is now his team mate and they both locks in the hall of fame
Y not just give him the ball every play
Ya why wouldnt you. He's only 6'10, has a handle, and a deadly jumpshot.
Gabriel Leung that man 7 foot ion give a fuck what yall saying
@@capalot_2360 easy 7 foot
@Frosty look at him standing next to Cousins. All the proof you need
Durant has admitted that he’s 7ft with shoes
That Guy's a special talent!
People really thought this guy was 6'9'' back then. Look how tall he is. he's at least 6'11'' with shoes
I don't understand why skip keeps calling zion the best college player since Kareem. I could name a million better, even just at Duke alone
Who then
@@SE154eva Christian Latimer, Grant Hill. Off of Duke, Chris Webber, Larry Johnson, etc. He didn't dominate college like that. Even Melo had a better freshman year and won the title

Surprised Durant didn't announce his transfer to Kansas after this game, just for the NCAA tournament
i love you KD😘😘😘❤❤❤
you're the beast and best player in the league right now!!!
Nobody in the 2020 draft have no skill set like KD. I can't see how he was not the first pick in his draft class.
Greg Oden must have been a MONSTER in college to be drafted before this guy.
Yeah he was
I think he’ll be a great player. Maybe OKC should draft him
KD in the same arena he would call home literally 19 moths later.
I doubt we see another prospect, let alone reaching 6'10'' with such a deadly jumper
actually there's tons of them in Europe and we'll see more and more as time goes. Recently Dirk and Porzingis?

Best scorer in NBA history
Still don’t understand why KD went 2nd n the draft n 2007. Look where Oden is now and KD is.
It's called conventional wisdom dude...
They really blew this game 🤯 you would've thought Texas would won!
When people hate on players, just remember ur 10000000x worse than all of them.
Don't forget they got more money than them
Doesnt matter. Movies get critized by analysts, even though they dont make movies themselves. You dont need to be/do better than someone to analyze and critique their actions. Dumb argument that is used way too much
LJI exactly I hate the “they are better than youuu” argument, it makes no sense
Chris paul was at this game... funny because kD got him waived on the suns
KD in today's college basketball would drop 60 easily 🔥🔥
his release change a bit now. now smooth af
All the while I was thinking Durant went straight to NBA after highschool
😂 naww
The greatest college prospect in history to not go number 1 in the draft
Warriors need to sign him. Dude is a monster!
Any requests next??? 👀
LeBron James HighSchool highlights please in HD! Thanks
#KingJames
Kd vs Blake griffin
This is the beginning of Super Star. Zion...? I dont think he will succeed in NBA.
