Who is more talented than Durant or McGrady? After all-round comparison, the gap is clear at a glance!
This season Durant is back as the king, and he has formed the Big Three with Harden and Irving. It is bound to bring Lao Zhan from the "throne". However, Durant's comeback also completely broke people's injury It’s important to know that there are really no stars who can come out of a major injury like Achilles tendon tear for so many years, but Durant did it. Currently Durant has recovered 95% of his strength before the injury, but It's somewhat slow in lateral movement.
In addition to the advancement of medicine and Durant's sufficient recovery time, what else is the reason for his return? That's his talent, so how powerful is his talent? Let's take his idol Tracy McGrady as a comparison.
The two did not have any positive handoffs. When Durant came to the league, McGrady's peak period had passed, and the cause was injury. But the two of them play very similarly, except that McGrady has a stronger sense of strength. Let’s take a look at the static talent first. The first is height. McGrady’s official height is 2.03 meters and Durant’s is 2.08 meters. But this is not allowed. McGrady is at least 2.05 meters, and Durant said he is 2.12. Over. In terms of wingspan, Durant has an amazing 2.24 meters. McGrady's 2.2 meters is already very rare, but it is still compared. It can be said that McGrady is slightly worse in static talent.
Physical talent, Tracy McGrady’s bounce is very terrifying, and it’s no different from his cousin Carter. Bradley, who buckled 2.29 meters back then, made fans exclaimed. Durant didn’t have this The method is compared with McGrady, but the explosive power of the two is very good. Durant's breakthrough speed is also difficult to be defended, and he likes to chase big hat opponents. The overall physical fitness is still better than the peak Medillo.
But Durant’s static talent determines his lower limit,Why Durant’s offense is incomprehensible, is that he, a man with a height of 2.10 meters, can make a lot of guard moves, such as changing directions and breakthroughs. Durant is very good at it. In addition, his shooting makes The opponent is simply out of reach, Durant's shot point is very high, even players like Anthony Davis can only look at it.
McGrady’s overall talent is stronger here, with a 30.1 cm Achilles tendon, allowing McGrady to fly to the sky and omnipotent, and McGrady’s shot point is also very high, which is entirely due to his core strength group and bounce. Similarly, McGrady’s dry jumper is no one can cover him, and he can give his opponent a fatal blow anywhere. In addition, McGrady’s style of playing is a little more handsome than Durant. Both of them are rare NBA wizards in a century. .
