Stephen A should do his research on Messi.
Doesn’t speak but his game speaks for himself

Now he don’t feel like that about Arron rogers ???? stop coming for my boy . Aaron isn’t a leader the same guy that doesn’t show up for mandatory mini camp . KD shows up every time now he may not be a vocal leader but you can lead a team in different ways . Just my opinion

The Suns problem is Bradley Beal

He wasn’t the problem last night. He’s part of the reason why the Suns won

Steven A has a grudge so acts like KD isn’t as good a player as LeFraud Shames. Outright simps Potatum as well.

This is a fact. Durant has never been a leader. That’s why he went to Golden state and rode the bus to 2 Chips. And he haven’t been back since.

What metric measures how you much a player galvanizes their teammates? None. This is a non story being pushed as something important only 1 game into the season

To the KD fans in the comments so since he was vocal last night he’s a leader what about the other 16 years of his career?

And this is where I get confused because he’s measuring Kevin Durant‘s greatness basedof his leadership ethic, but he claims that Michael Jordan is the goat, but Michael Jordan was not a good leader at all actually so that’s why I don’t take the goat debate serious because people pick and choose what they want to measure it off of based off of personal bias.
