Kevin Durant nails an incredible four-pointer while falling backwards off the court

The MVP-elect produced this highlight reel moment as the clock ran down against the Grizzlies last night.

IN A WORLD ruled by LeBron James, it takes something special to be crowned the NBAโ€™s Most Valuable Player.

Kevin Durant is a shoo-in and with one moment of magic against the Memphis Grizzlies last night, he summed up his incredible season.

As Marc Gasol nudged him out of bounds, KD fell backwards off the court but was still able to defy gravity and land this frankly outrageous three-pointer.

He dusted himself off and tacked on the extra point for the foul, allowing Kendrick Perkins to complete the five-point comeback on the buzzer.

The Grizzlies won 111-105 in overtime but thatโ€™s kinda irrelevant. Kevin Durant.

    A player, no matter how good he is, calling the shots at a club and having more power than the manager is never a good thing.

    On one hand Messi gets blamed for wanting to play every game, and on the other, Sterling gets blamed for wanting to take a rest. Seems like footballers canโ€™t win these days.

    Overpaid selfish git. Should concentrate on paying his fair share of taxes.

    Quite frankly, although there a million miles between me and him as footballers and as people of interest, I donโ€™t like what he is doing, trying to tell the coaches he wants to play every game and to never be left on the bench, no questions asked. While it makes sense because they canโ€™t buy players at the moments, shouldnโ€™t he stop and think for a second that while heโ€™s undoubtedly the talisman, he needs to understand the fairness in letting teammates get a chance when theyโ€™re given an opportunity to fill his role?

    Probably one of the greatest players there has ever been and arguably the best of his generation but NO player is bigger than the team.After all football is a team sport and NOT an individual sport.Players have their role to play and managers have their role to manage,end of story.

    Looks like a smear campaign against the little magician!! To put this just beside an article about Ronaldos petulance is a nonsense!

    People we must agree that messi has contributed to the barca we so much admire to day while we might see this as an act of disrespect . Tha turth still remains that messi should be entitled to some privliages. You know what they say you never know what u have untill u lose it. I tell u if barca is not careful that will be her case.
