Is Kevin Durant the Best Scorer Ever? | Should 76ers Shut Joel Embiid Down | Raptors Extend Brandon Ingram. Good Deal?

Kevin Durant has officially joined the 30,000-point club, but is he the greatest scorer in NBA history? We debate whether KD’s combination of size, skill, and efficiency make him the best pure bucket-getter ever. Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns, Philadelphia 76ers, and Los Angeles Lakers are all dealing with their own crises. The Suns are floundering below .500, the 76ers' so-called "big three" is getting booed off their home floor, and the Lakers just added Alex Len after missing out on Mark Williams—will that move actually help?

Brandon Ingram secures a massive extension with the Raptors, but does it make sense for Toronto's direction? And speaking of teams under the microscope, the Oklahoma City Thunder are one of the best regular-season teams we’ve seen in years. Does that mean it's championship or bust? We break down what fair expectations should be for the Thunder, as well as for the Cavaliers, Knicks, Rockets, Mavericks, and Lakers.

Finally, we take a moment to try (and fail) to make our co-host feel better about the Chicago Bulls’ embarrassing 40-point loss to the Detroit Pistons. Don’t miss this jam-packed episode of Locked On NBA!
