Kevin Durant Tribute: First Half at Kansas

The video's not the highest quality, but it suffices to bring back the memories of Durant's epic first half at Kansas on March 3, 2007. Behind KD's 25 points on 10-14 shooting, the Longhorns scored 51 first half points, including a stretch during which they made 14 straight field goals. The game took an unfortunate turn south in the second half when Durant rolled his ankle; though the Jayhawks would wind up winning the contest 90-86, fans of both teams were treated to some incredibly special basketball.

Great game...

and Durant was the kind of player that made me both pull my hair out and laugh in amazement at the same time.

Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.

I remember watching that game

What a performance. And what a great reaction from the Jayhawk fans when KD went down.

My favorite part

Is Matt Hill’s hair.

To whoever gave us the highlights, thanks

but damn, that music and the heartbeats brought absolutely nothing positive to the video. I would’ve rather heard the crowd and the commentators going crazy over Durant.
