On January 20, Beijing time, according to US media reports, bill Simmons said in the podcast program: "By any calculation, I think Kevin Durant can rank in the top 10 greatest players in history."
For Durant, he has won two championship trophies in his career, in addition to winning two FMVP, which is a very impressive achievement.
In addition, Bill Simmons believes that despite Curry's impressive performances this season, he will not eventually become MVP, and Simmons believes that Durant is only the MVP this season.
Simmons said: "Stephen won the MVP in the first half, but it's been a long season and while he's impressive, he won't be the MVP candidate in the end. People are a little tired of old stories, so we want to see something different."
Since the beginning of this season, Durant has been very good, and the Nets have a good record. The Nets are third in the East with 27 wins and 16 losses, just 0.5 wins from the Bulls, who are number one in the East. In addition, Durant played in 36 games, averaging 29.3 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 0.78 steals and 0.94 blocks in 36.5 minutes per game.
However, Durant has suffered a knee injury at the moment and he will be absent for a while. Today's Nets game against the Wizards, Durant will not play.
