Panathinaikos head coach Rick Pitino took to Twitter and praised the star of the Golden State Warriors, Kevin Durant, for his great performance.

“Really difficult to rate players from different eras. MJ wAs the best two way player I’ve ever seen. Lebron the most powerful player in the game. Kobe the most lethal scorer. I now believe Durant could become #1 of all time!” the 66-year-old Hall of Famer tweeted.

Durant scored 35 points and led the Warriors past the Houston Rockets (104-100) in Game 1 of the Western Conference semi-finals.
