Club 520 crew <\/a>that Durant has changed his entire outlook and philosophy of hoops this season.<\/p>\n\u201cKD changed the way I view everything this year. Because it\u2019s like it\u2019s so easy for him. And he really be chilling. Like, he don\u2019t do too much. He just waits.<\/p>\n
He can go a couple of minutes without touching the ball. He don\u2019t say nothing. He\u2019ll go stand in the corner.<\/p>\n
And he just don\u2019t miss. He don\u2019t miss.\u201d<\/p>\n
VanVleet was asked for his opinion of the better natural shooter between Durant and Oklahoma City Thunder superstar guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander \u2013 last year\u2019s MVP and Finals MVP and made an unsurprising choice.<\/p>\n
\u201cKD. For sure, it\u2019s not even close.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not close? VanVleet explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m only saying from the standpoint of KD is seven-feet tall. So like watching him shoot a middie over Wemby and he don\u2019t see Wemby. He don\u2019t see bodies. He don\u2019t see the help. He don\u2019t see the third guy. He don\u2019t touch the rim.\u201d<\/p>\n
VanVleet made sure to give the Oklahoma City star his flowers too, however.<\/p>\n
\u201cShai is special though.\u201d<\/p>\n
