Kevin Durant still has it. He remains the unstoppable, three-level scorer he's always been, and when he's cooking, it feels like he can score any time. So why doesn't he take initiative when the game is on the line, late in the fourth quarter? Why is there ever a situation where Durant shoots 14 times in a game that went into overtime?
That's what happened in Monday's thriller against the Nuggets in Denver. That's far from a bad loss on the surface, but the Nuggets were missing two starters and lost Peyton Watson early in the contest.
