There are teams like the Brooklyn Nets that have a lot of pressure behind them. Especially when one of the players is Kevin Durant. Not only becausehe is expected to dominate every single nighthe’s on the courtin the 2022-2023 NBA season, but because he’s getting older. That’swhen some of the big players start to go down the fall of greatness.

For example, Isiah Thomas, the two-time NBA Champion,got there when he was 28 years old. Not so old, but old enough to be good in the league. As well as his ‘Bad Boys’ Detroit Pistons, who were led by him. However, after that he couldn’t clinched any more championships.

So, now he is on live NBA TV talking about Kevin Durant’s performance during this first week of the 2022-2023 NBA Season, and goes offwith an unexpected statement. As a 34-year-old NBA player, Durant has proved himself every night, especially in the most tough during the playoffs, but Thomas had another point of view.

In fact, what Thomas said isone of the most random statements right now,especially when the stats are taking into account. Durantis currently the points per game leader in the Nets franchise, with 32 points per game. However, the bad recordis what concerns the most to thetwo-time NBA Champion with the Detroit Pistons.

“He used to get 30 (points) and that meant he dominated the game. Now his 30 is just 30.”Thomas said on NBA TV when they were showing a chart with Durant in thelowest plus-minus stats in the league. However, Durant is also one of the only two Nets players that have scored more than100 points in the first four games of the season. The rest are at least 51 points or lower.
