Iguodala: ‘Kevin Durant Will Be NBA’s All-Time Leading Scorer’

KD’s Team USA teammate, Andre Iguodala, has high expectations for him, to say the least. From CSN Philly: “Kevin Durant is USA’s leading scorer so far, averaging 21 points per game. This past NBA season, the Thunder’s superstar led the league in scoring, averaging 30.1 points. And Andre Iguodala insists it was no fluke. ‘Kevin Durant will be the NBA’s all-time leading scorer when it’s all said and done,’ Iguodala said emphatically. ‘He loves the game and has a knack for putting the ball in the basket.’ Through three NBA seasons Durant is 33 points shy of 6,000 for his career. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the league’s all-time leader with 38,387 points. Karl Malone is second with 36,928 points, and Michael Jordan is third with 32,292.”

    if lbj played the last few games of last season, then he would be the scoring champion. let’s not forget he was the no. 1 until the cavs decided to rest him in preparation for the playoffs. kd is a natural big-time scorer but with lbj with him out there, i think the highest spot he could achieve is just no. 2, behind lbj.

    LBJ > KD

    Does anyone here think Durant could possibly average 40 if he keeps his speed and quickness and gains 30 pounds!É

    There’s no evidence that KD will be anything more than the next Alex English or George Gervin. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, people. He’s one coaching change away from averaging 22ppg for the next seven years, okay?

    Durant gets 10 points a game at the free throw line ALREADY. He’ll get that (or more) for roughly another 12-13 year easily. That totally negates his not being a post player.

    Doubt it. Kareem played for years and years and his game was less reliant on Athleticsm than Durant, this guy will be high up the list, but cant see him making the top

    It’s possible.
    Very possible.
    If he doesn’t get hurt, and his teams predicate their offenses around him scoring 30ppg, than he can do it with his skill set.
    Is it likely to happen?
    Well………..
