Kevin Durant can score at will from anywhere on the court, but his midrange jumper is what vaulted him from being an elite scorer to an all-time-great offensive threat. In this episode of Signature Shots, ESPN analyst Kirk Goldsberry explains why Durant's midrange game makes him impossible to defend. #NBA #Sports

Running is faster than walking

Mark Murphy Acum 14 ore

Midrange is only inefficient if you’re a trash jump shooter.

ampeg Acum 14 ore

Sorry bulls fans, Ill say it again and again. 90s bulls vs GSW with Durant, Bulls lose!!!!!!!

Jordan Smith Acum 15 ore

That interview with Pat and Lou is amazing

heat Sbeat Acum 21 oră

in a League with no touch defense its no mystery offense will dominate. Put MJ on Defense on any of those new shool Clowns. MJ was tackled,pulled, hands on his forehead at each Jumpshot, still the best scorer in history, KD comes very close but keep in mind no one is defending KD for real.

GAYTHORAID Acum 22 ore

We all talk about kyrie, AI, etc. crossovers but that KD double crossover imo is one of the deadliest of all time 🔥

jayXslayz Acum o Zi

Is it just me who remembers Archer, Leader of the Gorgonites when I see KD?? Yeah?? No??? ok

jefferson cabulay Acum o Zi

Kawhi is his cryptonite!!!

Big body Jig Acum o Zi

Not only was he the best scorer in games that included bron and curry he was the best player

Sean J Acum o Zi

Its not unique .... Khawi does the same thing. What makes durant unique is the fact that he is almost 7ft and he handles the ball like a sg / pg. Only thing his game lacks is a post up type beat you down low addition.

michael bautista Acum o Zi

If only he did not join the warriors☹️

uropy Acum o Zi

He should shoot more 3s.

macario sakay Acum o Zi

He is a great player a future hall of fame but history will judge him by joining the best ever regular season record of 73-9 after he choked a 3-1 lead in the WCF.

brians garmas Acum o Zi

Kd is best shooter ever...

Christian Reyes Acum o Zi

Imagine, KD gets drafted by the Celtics or Lakers in 07, sitting on like 7 chips, I know it’s far fetched like he was unlucky to not get drafted to a really good, team, spurs with kd or cavs.

If you are wondering, What if Irving or Curry is 6'9 or up. KD is the answer

steven whiters Acum 3 Zile

Without gettin into other details it’s simple majority of 3s are catch and shoot when most mid ranges are created ... I hate analytics nerds

Kobe and MJ both are mid range king.

Put it simply, if you are tall enough to contest his shot, you are too slow to react to his footwork; if you are quick enough to react, you are too short to contest. This guy is a walking cheat code.

Ivan Laude Acum 4 Zile

Kevin durant is such a gifted human being.

Ricky D Acum 5 Zile

People talk about superteams, but the teams this guy gets are far above the level of superteams

jakejakeboom Acum 5 Zile

I think KD is one of the very few players his size who could still play in the league if he were 5 inches shorter. So unfair to have that combination of skill and length.

Joshua Donald Acum 5 Zile

This is why I keep trying to tell people the Nets are so dangerous. In the playoffs teams try and take away the paint and 3 point line and force mid range shots. The Nets have the best mid ranger scorer in the league in KD and one of the other best in Kyrie. They will never be starving for a basket. The most important thing in the playoffs are reliable clutch players that can get you baskets when things get tight. The Nets have 3, it's gonna be scary if their all healthy.

Mike jones Acum 5 Zile

Jordan #1 midrange shooter ever for the fact his shooting % and ppg are higher than anybody in these comments, Jordans career fg% is .497 and 30.1 ppg and Jordan shot .505 career fg% with the bulls it went down a lil bit cause of the wizards years and the fact Jordan shot more than Kd and Dirk and still has a better fg% means Jordan is the best Mid Range shooter in the history of basketball.
