i will never forget the NBA lockout 2011, where the whole bball community came together and we really got to learn about the beast that KD is on the court!! KD one of the purest ballers to ever grace this earth! Man i appreciate that summer to this day
What seems to stand out here is just how good NBA players are offensively. They're practically unguardable (for the most part) even by each other - what separates them is the ease with which they score. Beasley can take it to Durant, but Durant just does it so much more easily against Beasley.
Kd just scoring machine I mean just elite basketball player and not much u can do to defend when he has long arms and crossover like a guard but dunks like. Power forward lol
not only is durant gifted skill wise but honestly, ive never seen another human built like him, wing-span and all. He is the best of both worlds un guardable
You'd be surprised how much contact he takes. He just makes it look so easy because of his strength. Plus his FT% still hasn't risen above 75 in his 9 years pro.
I thought I was the only one really taking that in "You gotta guard him when he starts crawling.." The commentary gave me goosebumps it suits Durant well Nike and NBA Media Promoters should seriously consider running with that promoting scheme of Kevin Durantula as opposed to the latest KD 6s that look like soccer shoes lol.
There was a guy who commented on this video who thought at 0:51 it was, "Kevin Durant Kevin Durant Kevin Durant Kevin Durant" 😂 that's what I hear when I see that part now
NOBODY can guard Kevin Durant. Even with the Laker trades going down, I want nothing more than to see him lead OKC to a title and himself to another scoring title. He's the greatest player in this game right now!!!
KayJayA7X Do you even know who was picked number 1 in Durants draft? smh...I bet you think rings means instant talent... Guess Jordan Farmar is better than half of the NBA HOF
Everybody gotta earn their stripes when in NY...deadass!! Whether NBA player or whatever, you step in any court out there, Rucker, Dyckman wherever, nothing is handed to you on a silver platter. Hell, even Kobe, after his 3peat went to Rucker.

Durant is quickly catching up to Lebron as the top player in the NBA. Best scorer easily
***** he recognised they are different but there will always be the question of who is better durant is the better scorer lebron the facilitator we will see who gets that ring this year
***** I think you were the only one who thought he meamt Durant carried a lot of weight. Pretty sure the first thing people think of when they see the word carry on a basketball post is carrying the ball. Your mind has a weird way of processing stuff
Everyone's freakin nuts on here! Lebron James is better the Durant! James just does so many things on the court that Durant doesn't right now... But Durant is still developing. Plus Durant handles himself better off the court. He's what the NBA should be about. With his quickness and length he should be a far better defender
people hate lebron so much because of personal opinions, but you cant argue the numbers and achievements. Lebron is a goat. KD will be too so stop hatin.
the fact that these two are just balling at a park like this makes this sooo much tighter. The crowd into every move and shit. now that would be a game i'd want to go to. if i was not a white man of course haha.
Haha, I definitely agree about the Nowheresville Minn. I agree that he would be better in a more run and gun system, I just don't know how well the Suns will execute that offense without Nash as their #1 distributer.
i think that KD is starting to really get to the hole more often, signs of him scoring more this season, now he needs to bulk up and practice those crazy lay ups and hell be really hard to stop.
0:43 - hahahaha....... Beasley is like "I can handle this, bro.....He is mine"....and then..... Booooooom! He got totally embarrassed by that Kevin Durant crossover....hahahaha.......
Durant was the best college baller in '07. Beasley was the best in '08. Since then, it's a totally different story, but back then, this was a better story.
Ya, thats why since Jordan retired, the West has won the NBA championship 10 out of the 13 seasons... Thats why every year in the East at least one team makes it to the playoffs with a losing record. Your right Assists and rebounds are definitley more important than points...
i will never forget the NBA lockout 2011, where the whole bball community came together and we really got to learn about the beast that KD is on the court!! KD one of the purest ballers to ever grace this earth! Man i appreciate that summer to this day
Prime hoops
KD at Dyckman and Rucker was iconic. That summer ruled for basketball fans
The reason why this was such a hyped match-up is because the two of them are good friends.
i love how beasley gets in the lowest stance possible and dares durant to beat him and then just stands and watches as durant blows by him
What seems to stand out here is just how good NBA players are offensively. They're practically unguardable (for the most part) even by each other - what separates them is the ease with which they score. Beasley can take it to Durant, but Durant just does it so much more easily against Beasley.
Yea. That's very true. At the nba level, the differences are things normal humans don't comprehend.
There goes Beasely getting high before the game and not playing defense
LMFAOOOO
never a truer statement been written. Unreal talent, no pride.
+duranc no pride?
+chris camez if he a had pride in his talent he'd play better and know smoking is just holding him down
its fun
But forreal, Beasley is far from a scrub
Facts
Straight hooper. He would destroy 98% of all basketball players. And the games wouldn't even be close
He is a scrub after this 🤡
On me @@zekeodima3708
Kd just scoring machine I mean just elite basketball player and not much u can do to defend when he has long arms and crossover like a guard but dunks like. Power forward lol
not only is durant gifted skill wise but honestly, ive never seen another human built like him, wing-span and all. He is the best of both worlds un guardable
I give Beasley the benefit of the doubt, he was high.
Kenyon Mays no escues when you playing ball
People won’t understand how legendary this is
You'd be surprised how much contact he takes. He just makes it look so easy because of his strength. Plus his FT% still hasn't risen above 75 in his 9 years pro.
What are the other 8 players there for?
The rules in dyckman park are very different. help defense isn't really allowed.
Interesting
To offer support.
That atmosphere. Can't wait for summer so I can play pickup ball again.
Man I love watching Dyckman park videos, there's so much energy there.
I thought I was the only one really taking that in "You gotta guard him when he starts crawling.." The commentary gave me goosebumps it suits Durant well Nike and NBA Media Promoters should seriously consider running with that promoting scheme of Kevin Durantula as opposed to the latest KD 6s that look like soccer shoes lol.
KEVIN CAN STRAIGHT UP PLAY !! A SCORING MACHINE! AND HAVE THE RINGS TO BACK IT UP! 2021.
That night was legendary
Yooo are we just gonna ignore Beasley looking like a spider in the thumbnail 😭😭😭😭
It’s crazy now that he’s actually playing for my city 🗽🍎
That last play by Beasley tho is pretty damn smooth too... got a wide open bank shot
KD barely jumps when he dunks yet everyone gets hype
"Got him in a web! Got him in a web! Got him in a web!" LMFAO
"got em in the web, got em in the web, got em in the web"
There was a guy who commented on this video who thought at 0:51 it was, "Kevin Durant Kevin Durant Kevin Durant Kevin Durant" 😂 that's what I hear when I see that part now
More black people should be at NBA games, maybe the crowds would actually sound like fans then
Chang Bi Zou Oh they can afford it and more. Majority of them are on the court. They're doers not spectators
jsmasterlubu3 what?
Basically the black people are the millionaires people pay to watch?
The racism is very clear. ^^^^^
jsmasterlubu3 Yep, and the guys pulling the strings behind the scenes are...........the old white men
DMV shyzzle....I love it 💪🏾💪🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
why KD being guarded by a daddy long leg in the thumbnail
NOBODY can guard Kevin Durant. Even with the Laker trades going down, I want nothing more than to see him lead OKC to a title and himself to another scoring title. He's the greatest player in this game right now!!!
No
It's funny how they are both a No. 2 pick but, look where each of them's at now?
Durant being a mvp
KayJayA7X KD is hurt a b-easy is chillin with an eastern conference title...
KayJayA7X Do you even know who was picked number 1 in Durants draft? smh...I bet you think rings means instant talent... Guess Jordan Farmar is better than half of the NBA HOF
+KayJayA7X haha, Beasley is in China now
+flame1113 Tell U the truth I think Beasley better than Durant if their bout equal
Back when brah undeniably loved the game lls today he like i cant wait for whats next
Well Beasley playing his lockdown defense as isual
Everybody gotta earn their stripes when in NY...deadass!! Whether NBA player or whatever, you step in any court out there, Rucker, Dyckman wherever, nothing is handed to you on a silver platter.
Hell, even Kobe, after his 3peat went to Rucker.
Durant is quickly catching up to Lebron as the top player in the NBA. Best scorer easily
thats a retarded comparison
JERRY LAWLER how?
How can you judge something with nothing to compare it against?
***** he recognised they are different but there will always be the question of who is better durant is the better scorer lebron the facilitator we will see who gets that ring this year
Melo is a better all-around scorer can post up
KD And Micheal where child hood friends so this was funny to watch each other go at it
hell yeah, kd was always second fiddle to beasley up until they went to the NBA, too bad Beasley can't keep his mind straight
Beasley Vs. Durant... Hmm...
hmmm
And the winner would be Durant.
the crossover is hella sick
Durant is a great player but he carries A LOT in my eyes.
You blind?
***** I think you were the only one who thought he meamt Durant carried a lot of weight. Pretty sure the first thing people think of when they see the word carry on a basketball post is carrying the ball. Your mind has a weird way of processing stuff
Ahmad Wright sorry i had to be the 200th dislike
Not anymore...
KD is UN-guardable , it amazes me everytime lmao
Beasley is a terrible defender!
its kevin durant
durant and beasley were young friends and played together
0:16 travel
i love this "NBA Lockout"!
it looks like a bowl of coco puffs out there
says the Mexican
KD is my favorite player, but Beasly plays for my team. Love the match up!
durant didn't even get up that high he just long as fuck
6'9"
+John Moreta 6'11'' according to ESPN analysts
+SearchSagath lol he's 6'9" in 2k
+SearchSagath according to Durant himself he's 6'9.5 and 6'10 in shoes.
+Aye Breado but can you?
these fans are actually real fans of the art of basketball and not just lebron or kobe haters
Everyone's freakin nuts on here! Lebron James is better the Durant! James just does so many things on the court that Durant doesn't right now... But Durant is still developing. Plus Durant handles himself better off the court. He's what the NBA should be about. With his quickness and length he should be a far better defender
James just cant win shit and leaves teams. Kobe Wade are the best things in the nba and Durant and Paul George will be on the rise if they do right
MrBeastlyC You are thick as fuck talk about sympathy vote. Kobe and Wade best thing about NBA? Haha good one guess you are in 2011 still bro.
lol ironic
What you think now
people hate lebron so much because of personal opinions, but you cant argue the numbers and achievements. Lebron is a goat. KD will be too so stop hatin.
i love that god damn siren
everytime Durant crosses over he carries smh so overrated -.-
You're blind
jypark...yeah i bet your so much better
Trey Ingram he does carry but you cant call it cause its street
Harboonik That was not a carry, if it was a carry they would call it in the NBA ALSO his hand isn't under the ball and lifting it high above his waist
do you even basketball?
this looks more entertaining then the nba thats forsure
they were like best friends growing up
lmao i love the air horn every 5 seconds.
Beasley HAD so much potential
Woooooh that was HYPE!!!
They're like best friends in real life.
WE ARE HAVING A NBA SEASON LETS GO DURANTULASSSSSS
great defense by Beasley with the old Wolfman Spidermonkey technique
man that first dunk was funy af
6'10 with handles like that, not to mention the best pure shooter in the game right now. KD is a beast lol. Best player in 2 years tops
hoopmixtape ur killin ballislife
Beasely's pre game ritual: smoking a doobie
Durant's pre game ritual: actually practicing
Durantula trying to spin a web: now the most hated phrase I've ever heard
I like the announcer "got him in the web" lol
KD is trying to become a playground legend in just one summer lol
Everytime someone brings the ball up all you can hear is "yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhh...ooooooooooohoohhohohohoh!"
the fact that these two are just balling at a park like this makes this sooo much tighter. The crowd into every move and shit. now that would be a game i'd want to go to. if i was not a white man of course haha.
Haha, I definitely agree about the Nowheresville Minn. I agree that he would be better in a more run and gun system, I just don't know how well the Suns will execute that offense without Nash as their #1 distributer.
i missed kd doing this shit during the summer. couldnt do it this past year because of the olympics. hope hes back at it this summer!
michael beasley and kevin durant actually grew up together, theyre good friends
i think that KD is starting to really get to the hole more often, signs of him scoring more this season, now he needs to bulk up and practice those crazy lay ups and hell be really hard to stop.
Beasley is killin off bench in nba
nothin like a gd bak n forth! :D
Durant just loves him some basketball
Beasley is so high at this game he can't even move his feet 😂
0:43 - hahahaha....... Beasley is like "I can handle this, bro.....He is mine"....and then..... Booooooom! He got totally embarrassed by that Kevin Durant crossover....hahahaha.......
I love the crowds xD
Man, KD is a BEAST!
holy fk... the first move by kd is killer...one crossover and he gathers for dunk... no extra trible, holy fk
Dope!!
Kevin Durant and Michael Beasley going at it at Dyckman Park.
durant is wayy to quick for a 6'10-6'11 dude damnnnn
alright The Durantula is a pretty sick nickname lol.
got him in a web. got em in a web!
Kevin Durant=Rising best player in the NBA
he just signed with the heat
You never see Durrant that hyped lmao!
idk why i watched this.. i knew what was going to happen
Beasley look like a spider in this stilll bro
"KD35 vs Michael Beasley" LFMAO! What a 'fight'
durant may be a superstar but give beasly props he's pretty damn good.
How does he keep falling for that crossover. 💀
Cause the pull up is elite. Can't do too much with him.
Durant was the best college baller in '07. Beasley was the best in '08.
Since then, it's a totally different story, but back then, this was a better story.
You all forget how good beasley was coming out of college- #1 pick
when he dunked u already kno beasley was like god damn it
that was tight
he's skilled enough to achieve that goal.
WHAT???? Beasley is good.. he put up good numbers for the twolves
Ya, thats why since Jordan retired, the West has won the NBA championship 10 out of the 13 seasons... Thats why every year in the East at least one team makes it to the playoffs with a losing record. Your right Assists and rebounds are definitley more important than points...
Yah, I bet you would stand there silently if one of the NBA's biggest stars shows up at your local court.
@TomsMVP yes they are. it's just the guy who dunked is 6'9" and has a winspan of 7'4" (so he basically doesn't have to jump to dunk)
GOTEM IN THE WEB, GOTEM IN THE WEB, GOTEM IN THE WEB XD
