"he just confirmed he is the most proficient basketball participant on the earth, if not of all time," he advised nbc bay vicinity's raj mathai. "honestly. He's just so proficient. I loved coaching him, and i am searching ahead to doing so once more."

even more proficient than jordan?

"i suppose he's more proficient, i sincerely do," kerr said. "it's announcing something, however kevin is a unique ... Totally exclusive breed. He's 6'eleven" with shield competencies, unlimited 3-point variety, passing, shot-blocking off—his shot-blocking at the rim, it's simply lovely. Watching him this year was sincerely, in reality pleasing to see."

ok, ok, earlier than the net pulls out the proverbial torches and begins marching on kerr for daring to besmirch jordan—and you recognize lebron james lovers are incensed that the la lakers superstar didn't even get a point out—it's likely crucial to observe that he said durant become the most "gifted" player of all time, not always the "best" participant in nba records. There's, after all, a distinction. Has there each been a participant in history that mixes durant's size, 3-degree scoring, finesse, touch and athleticism? His shot is unblockable. He's a 38. Four percent 3-point shooter for his profession. In a league with a records of taking walks buckets, he is the strolling bucket. Did jordan win greater titles? Of route. Is he the maximum grab player of all time? Tough to argue in any other case. He became one of the most exciting players to observe in nba history, a excessive-flying cultural phenomenon. He changed into also an elite on-ball defender. However whilst you speak approximately natural basketball ability, it's tough to argue that anyone has ever had more than durant. He's as pure a scorer because the league has ever visible. Kerr can also be extending an olive department to durant with these remarks beforehand of the 2 being paired again with team america at the imminent tokyo olympics (kerr is an assistant train). Kerr remarked in march that he enjoyed coaching the 15-50 dubs in the 2019-20 season extra than he enjoyed training the warriors in 2018-19, which took place to be durant's last season inside the bay vicinity. When durant noticed a tweet referencing the feedback, he located them "humorous":

kerr could cross on to angrily say that the tweet took his comments out of context. But given that kerr and durant reportedly were not on the high-quality terms at some point of their time together in golden state, kerr's remarks in march seemed to fan the proverbial flames, which kerr might be seeking to hose down in advance of tokyo.
