As a basketball junky it has been a very disappointing NBA season for one reason and that is KD has really hardly played this season. It has been a wasted season for Kevin Durant of OKC.

And the word is today that KD is out for last few games of this season and the playoffs if OKC makes the playoffs that is. I know all Durant fans are upset. All the youth who follow KD as their favorite NBA player. And I know the management of OKC has to be depressed that KD is out. And KD will have another foot surgery. His third in six months.

So now it is up again like it has been all for Russell Westbrook to fill the void left by the departure of KD. That is a lot of pressure on Westbrook and the rest of his teammates. Of course Westbrook has been a triple double machine since KD has been out. He is in the running for MVP along with Lebron (of course), “The Beard” Harden and Curry.

So now what will happen with KD in the future? Will this foot problem be with him the rest of his career? It was for Bill Walton and others. Next year is a big year for KD because soon he can decide to bolt OKC and maybe go back home to DC and play for the Wizards. We will just have to see NBA fans. Good luck to KD and I hope he makes a full recovery and returns back to the “old” KD.   Gordon Curvey
