Coach Nick Picks Kevin Durant Over Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — Even This Year
KD at 37 is still putting up 26 PPG on 54/51/89 splits after an Achilles injury. That's just ridiculous efficiency. While SGA is getting his 30+ on higher volume, I'm still taking Durant right now. People forget KD can run point when needed - we saw it during his MVP season with OKC when Russ went down, and again with the Nets when Harden was out. Point Durant is a real thing. SGA might have the higher usage, but KD's versatility and that shooting efficiency at his age? That's what separates the all-time greats.
