Can a healthy Maddie reach Durant s heights?

The question should be said the other way around – can a healthy Durant reach Maddy's heights? Why do I say that? To be honest, I don't particularly value the personal glory of the players.

Because everyone and I know that basketball is a game of five people, and individual glory stars and even supergiants abound in the history of the NBA. The reason why Durant is defined by me as a chaser is because of Durant's low mental tolerance, coupled with his unstable goals, and finally his injury.

Durant moved from team to team, constantly changing where he played, and struggled to catch up with Maddy Durant, whose basketball career began with the Seattle SuperSonics, now known as the Oklahoma City Thunder. Then Du Shao went to Goose City with the team (it sounded like watching "Let the Bullets Fly"), and with the assembly of the Big Three, the Thunder entered its heyday. But with the defeat of the first Finals, coupled with the 16 Warriors' 1-3 comeback, Durant left Oakland, and finally Du Shao achieved personal success with the Warriors.

Maddie, on the other hand, has no such experience (although it is abbreviated, but the truth is always brief) - she has spent most of her career on the red team. Although the NBA is a business league, in terms of career height, the first thing is to have a beginning and an end, that is, to have a stable goal. This is a must (don't spray if you don't like it).

Durant's mental tolerance is not good, and Maddy has "35 seconds and 13 minutes" Durant in the playoffs last season couldn't bear the pressure and rushed back, resulting in injuries. If he holds his breath, he probably won't leave the Warriors. And it turns out that Durant can maximize his benefits as long as he is in the Warriors.

Go to the Nets, huh.

And Maddie's psychological resilience is unmatched, as evidenced by the miracle of "35.13 minutes". The Yao Mai combination is widely sought after by Chinese fans, and the Maddie of "West Kedong Ai, North Carolina South Mai" is one of the four major quantiles of the league.

Durant doesn't have such a title.

Injuries may make Du Shao lose a good game, and joining the Nets is not a good solution, Durant's previous injury was a torn Achilles tendon, and Kobe Bryant suffered the same injury at the end of his career. Through Kobe's situation, it can be imagined that Du Shao's future is worrying.

And last summer, Du Shao gave up the Warriors' top salary, and when he went to the Nets, he lost fans even more. It's the first time I've seen a player of Durant's level change home teams so often.

From this point of view, Durant should also go after Maddy.

See you in the next Q&A.

I think if Maddy is healthy, he can reach the height of Durant now, because Maddy's scoring ability at that time was also very powerful, and he retired because of injuries.

It should be ok. Maddie and Durant have similar physical conditions and similar talents, and if they can maintain their physical fitness all the time, they should be comparable to Durant.

Yes, Maddie is very physical, both scoring and defensively doing well.

It took Maddie 8 years to score 10,000 points, half of which in the Rockets has started to stop and stop if he is healthy for 15 years, you say.

Oh my god is crazy, write an article like this, when did Durant surpass Maddie.

It should be ok. The offensive means and assist ability are still above Durant.

You go and ask if Maddy's partner Kobe O'Neal in his prime can win the championship.

If Maddy hadn't had an injury, I don't think he would have reached Durant's heights. Here's why:

First, Maddy's defense is too different from Durant's. Maddy's physical condition is also extraordinary, the whole career actually started with defense, in the years when he first debuted to the peak, all advanced defensive data are quite good, but defense has been criticized by fans, and the main criticism is his defensive attitude, and Durant's entire career so far, the defense is quite good and focused, "higher than him is not as fast as him, faster than him is not as high as him" This sentence is also applicable when it comes to defense, which has brought great help to the Warriors.

Maddy's defensive quality has declined very much, and Durant's defense has improved slightly, and there has been no significant decline in concentration, even if we believe that Maddy's defensive level has declined due to injuries, but the subjective thing of concentration should rarely be affected by injuries, and this small difference in details can also indirectly explain some problems.

Second, Maddie has no injuries and will not be bad, but MVP and other honors are not easy to get, and the championship is not so easy to get, mainly depending on the team and their own performance. This involves the problem of teammates, Maddy's Cavaliers team was originally competitive, but Maddy's teammate Yao Ming had an injury, and at that time, the whole team almost revolved around him, therefore, at that time, in the late stage, Maddy and the whole team fell into a slump, and Durant's team has improved a lot year by year, so if Maddie has no injury, his personal honor may be visible, but the championship is not very clear.

Third, the difference between the honors and records of the two people. Durant has NBA championships, MVPs, FMVPs, and Maddy doesn't. In the first five years of his career, Maddy led the team to the first round of the playoffs, and in these five years, including his prime, and in the first five years of Durant's career, he led the team to the Western Conference Finals and Finals, and during this period, the two had few injuries.

Of course, there is a certain element of teammates in this, but on all accounts, Durant established himself in the league faster and earlier than Maddy, and in 4 years, he reached a height that Maddy had not achieved in his entire career.

It can't be achieved, because although he is also very powerful, he is not very talented. You may not be able to reach the heights of those talented players in a short period of time.

Among the NBA stars, Maddie's ability is also very strong, but he has now left the team due to physical reasons. In his prime, he could well surpass Durant.

It is possible to reach this height, because he is not much worse than Durant in the first place. And he works harder than Durant, maybe even better than Durant.

NBA star Kevin Durant was influenced by his idol Maddie to work harder, and finally won two NBA championships.

When he participated in the draft, Durant's draft template was Maddy, and in fact, Durant was also full of Maddy's shadow when he played in the early days.

Durant also continued to strive because of his excellent idols, and finally won the championship and surpassed his idols.

Durant's honors:

Club Champion:

2017-18 NBA Championship.

2016-17 NBA championship.

Most Valuable Player:

2017-18 NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award.

2016-17 NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award.

2013-14 NBA Most Valuable Player Award.

2011-12 NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award.

2007-08 NBA Rookie of the Year Award.

2019-19 NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award.

There have been many regrets in the history of the NBA, which also reminds fans of many other possible outcomes, such as how many championships will Jordan have if he does not retire? How strong would Maddie be if she hadn't gotten sick? In fact, whether Jordan retires or not, he is already the first person in NBA history, but the latter one is very interesting.

Because we all know how strong Maddy's talent is, and we all know how unfortunate Maddy's injury is, so if he really doesn't have injury problems, can he reach the heights that Durant is today?

There are traces to compare Maddy and Durant, because Durant's draft template was Maddy, and Durant has always regarded Maddy as his idol. There are many similarities between the two players, both in terms of position and technical characteristics, and their styles are very elegant. But the highest honors in Maddy's career are two scoring titles and two first-team teams, while Durant has two championships and two FMVPs in hand, and the difference in honor is undoubtedly a little too big.

Let's take a look at how Maddy's career plays out on the premise that he won't get hurt.

Maddie's career accomplishments include seven All-Star selections, two first-team selections, two-time scoring titles, and Hall of Fame. If Maddie's achievements want to surpass Durant, he must at least have the same MVP, 2 FMVPs and 2 championship trophies as Durant.

Can Maddie, who has not been injured in her career, achieve these achievements? It's actually hard.

Maddie once joked on the show that his achievements are not high because of his teammates CBA, if he had been replaced by O'Neal, he would have won the championship long ago, in fact, Maddie is really good, he would have been able to win the MVP a long time ago, and he may even attract superstars to him like Wade, but Maddie didn't do it, not only because of injuries, but also because of personality, playing attitude and other questions. Throughout Maddie's career, aside from injuries, he has problems with his personality and playing attitude, and he has conflicts with the team management, and he does not have the fighting spirit and desire to win like Kobe Bryant on the court. Although it once moved God in 35 seconds, it was a very rare highlight moment after all.

Maddie's attitude towards the game is more open, it doesn't matter if he wins or loses, it's good to be happy, which leads to his poor team performance, just from this point of view, Maddie is a lot worse than Durant, Durant can bear a lot of infamy in order to win, and take refuge in the strong team that has defeated him, this winning attitude Maddie does not have, plus Maddie will not adjust his positioning on the court, he has always been the boss of the team, occupies the ball, and does not change himself when he plays without the ball. Due to the combined reasons, his achievements cannot surpass Durant.

If Maddie is not troubled by injuries, then Maddie can lead the team to win 3 to 5 championships in the NBA, win the regular season MVP finals, FM MVP, and win the scoring and assist king.

Maddie, as a star at the same time as Kobe, once created the well-known Maddie blocking moment, and his strength can be seen, if he has not suffered an injury, he must also be a Hall of Fame player, and it is very likely that he will have a championship ring to buy the Jane Pai Shed.

Maddie's personal strength is known whether he is at the peak of his blind limbs or the late stage of his peak, so if he is not troubled by injuries and hunger, he must be a very good player.
