    You would think at some point Durant will run out of teams that made the finals he can demand to join?

    I'm not sure everyone realizes he is turning 36 in a few months. Not to many players have been allstars after that age;
    Kareem 37, 38, 39, 40, 41
    Dirk 40 (none when 37, 38 or 39)
    LBJ 37, 38, 39
    Jordan 38, 39
    Duncan 38
    Malone 37, 38
    Wade 37
    Kobe 37
    Nash 37
    Stockton 37
    Parish 37
    Havlicek 37

    Many had their final appearance around Durant age and it was probably more a selection from name recognition than merit. Kareem averaged 10ppg and 4rpg his final season so obviously zero merit on that one and a few prior.

    Actually makes LBJ legit All-NBA season last year at 39 even more impressive. We just don't see NBA superstars at that age stay so effective. Kareem averaged 17/6 at the same age of 39.
