Durant is about to reach five milestones: the top five in the historical scoring list, winning the MVP again after more than ten years!

Basketball

Durant is one of the most controversial superstars in NBA history. He has won the regular season MVP so far in his career, won the championship twice, and both won the FMVP. It was these two championships that made him label "join if you can't beat it". At that time, the Warriors were already a champion. This offseason, Durant joined the Rockets, the second-place in the regular season through a record seven-team trade. If Durant wants to break the controversy, he must do the following:

first, Durant needs to regain his true nature as a "God of Death"!

"The body is the capital of the revolution." Durant has suffered serious injuries twice in his career. In the finals of the 18-19 season, Durant suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, resulting in the reimbursement of the entire 19-20 season. Although he has recovered well in the past two seasons, he is already a 37-year-old veteran after all.

It is worth mentioning that in the 24-25 season, he averaged 26.6 points, 6 rebounds, 4.2 assists per game, plus 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks. What is even more commendable is that his shooting percentage is 52.7% and his three-point shooting percentage is 43%. Durant, who joined the Rockets, does not need to play the role of being both a father and a mother last season, and only needs to regain his true nature as a "God of Death".

, Durant is among the top five in history scoring!

Durant is the purest scorer, with a total score of 30,571 points so far in his career, ranking eighth in history. Durant is expected to make a historic leap in the 25-26 season. It is worth mentioning that Jordan, fifth in history, has a total score of 32,292 points, a difference of 1,721 points.

In other words, as long as you ensure health in the new season, you can be among the top five in history by scoring 21+ points per game. This achievement will obviously help enhance your historical status.

Third, Durant is finally going to play the role of "boss"!

Frequently wandering with powerful teams, Durant walked James' path, but did not have the same "life". Except for the Warriors, none of the powerful teams Durant joined won the championship (Nets, Suns).

The two and a half seasons of playing for the Nets have the ability to win the championship, Irving + Harden + Harris + Durant + Clarkston, Dinwiddie, Brown, Adr, Griffin, Green, etc. Unfortunately, I was ruined by injuries; the lineup was also not bad in the two and a half seasons of the Suns, Bill + Booker + Okogie + Durant + Ayton, Gordon, Ross, Lee, etc.

This time, the Rockets joined by Durant are even stronger than those of the Nets and the Suns, forming Van Vreet + Amen Thompson + Durant + Smith + Shinkin, Smith, Ethan, Adams, Capela, Shepard, etc. More importantly, this time Durant played the role of the team's "boss" for the only time.

Fourth, Durant will regain the regular season MVP after more than ten years!

So far in his career, Durant has only won the MVP (13-14 season), which has been more than ten years since now. As we all know, the reason why the Rockets are betting on Durant is because Green's score is not stable at critical moments, and he lacks experience in the battle. Durant is the best candidate, the most stable scorer in history so far, and has rich playoff/finals experience in Durant in the 25-26 season, his average score may not be higher than that in the 24-25 season, but the defensive data and efficiency value should be significantly improved. Even if Durant can no longer win the MVP, there is still a possibility that he will be in the top five of the list.

Fifth, Durant led the Rockets to the Finals!

The Rockets scored a record of 50 wins and 32 losses in the 24-25 season without Durant, ranking second in the Western Conference. On the playoff stage, they lost to the Warriors with the most experienced playoffs. In order to keep Durant as healthy as possible, the Rockets equipped him with top forward partners (Smith Jr., Finney Smith, Ethan, Green, Tate).

In addition, the Rockets also have championship-level head coach Uduka. Although the Rockets are strong, they are different from previous teams. If they can lead the Rockets to win the championship or even reach the finals, the stigma of "grouping" can at least be washed away.
