Kevin Durant Is A Freak

Below you'll find highlights to this year's contest between Oak Hill Academy and Montrose Christian High School, where Kevin Durant played this past year. It's easy to spot Durant in the videos (white jersey, #3). He's the 6'11" guy dunking everywhere and hitting jumpers from all over the court. For special pleasure, watch the bomb he hits at the 2:21 mark of the video - easily an NBA three. This kid is unreal. How Rick Barnes landed him I do not know. Nor do I care - welcome to Texas, Kevin.

Durant
He really seems more like a nba-type player than a college-type to me- he's not going to be able to make those easy drives into the lane against zones and partial zones like the box and one I expect most teams will put on him.  Still looking forward to seeing him in burnt orange though.

depends what kind of nba your talking about
remember barnes is gonna play like phoenix this year. if we're running the whole time no one will get to set-up.  durant will run crazy.  i'm dreaming.

Being that tall and shooting that well
He will kill any zone that is thrown at him.  It will be like Pitsnoggle but with 3 times the tallent.

Even a box and 1 will allow him to take those 2 or 3 dribble jumpshots he was making.
