Kevin Durant featured on all-time small forwards list that’s caused a stir

Kendrick Perkins released his top-5 small forwards of all-time list and the basketball world has some issues with it.

While everyone is stuck in quarantine due to the novel coronavirus outbreak, current and former players have taken the time to establish some all-time NBA lists. Some have simply done their top players of all-time. Others have been a bit more detailed and done their all-time starting five.

Kevin Durant’s old teammate, Kendrick Perkins, has gone the extra mile and broken things down by position.

He shared his top-5 point guards of all time, which upset the masses when he left Golden State Warriors point guard Steph Curry off the list, leading Perkins to unveil his top-5 “hybrids” of all-time — the category he feels Curry falls under.

Then came the small forwards list. LeBron James was No. 1, then came Larry Bird. Those two were followed by Scottie Pippen, then Durant. Rounding out the list was Paul Pierce — the most controversial selection of the group.

Former Nets point guard Jason Kidd also made a top-5 list today, though not one of Kendrick Perkins’. Shawn Marion put Kidd as his starting point guard on his all-time starting five.
