durant is a square...

[BimmerMan]

Durant owns!

[larry040681]

oh cmon.. just getting a win against mia? mia was just playing cold in the 2nd half...

[Pauulzcappin]

He might become a better player. Not now though.

[lakerboy]

He is a better shooter that is for sure and he is better than Lebron was at his age. On top of that he has already played a seasoned team in his first playoff series so that is under his belt. His goal should be to make his team better and not worry about driving to the rim like a reckless idiot looking for free throws.

[rixster22]

i dont know man bron and durrant are close but kobe is numer 1

[lunchbawks]

i like durant better. when he plays his A game his team can't lose.

I'm MUCH more a fan of Durant on a personal level ... but cmon man Lebron is the 2nd best player of all time behind only MJ.

He's on a 1/2 All Star 1/2 min contract player team, not a real team (see '04 Lakers) and before that he had absolutely slop in terms of title aspiration talent surrounding.

Durant is top 5ish and def top 2-3 scorers, I'm not convinced he's more impt on that team than Westbrook. All yall laymen underrate PG's and Lebron is a cross of Magic w Dr J skills.


- And btw I bet OKC on both Spread (+7) and ML if u just consider me a blind fanboi

[bretb27]

durant is already better. younger, taller, longer, better shooter, better free throw shooter, better long range, better mid range. In my eyes, it's not even close. not to mention, he does more with less and he's as humble as they come.

This is not april fools day. 2nd best all time

[ThisGuy]

Ur the fool - there is no one who compares statistically to Lebron especially when you consider today's athlete compared to past. Swap Lebron for Kobe in terms of teammates for career. Keep laughing

[Pap45murF]

Well... Durant is the number 1 scorer in the NBA and has higher a FG%, 3-PT%, and FT% than LeBron. So Durant IS better than LeBron this year.

So where's the confusion?

...but then again, Stoudemire also has better stats than LeBron.

I don't need to educate those who know know

You guys can have your stats. As an OKC fan, I would much rather build my team around Durant. He is a team guy. I used to love Lebron but not so much anymore.

Lebron may be a better individual player but I'll take Durant.

I'm not even arguing that - in that position Durant may be better but if you were to swap Durant with Leborn in Cleveland last year, I don't think you can intellectually honestly believe they would've been a better team. Basketball is a team game and chemistry is def important

Agreed. However, if you swap out Lebron for Durant on the Thunder, I doubt the Thunder would have went as far as they did last year.

Lebron is a great "individual" player. Durant is a team guy that plays hard every game, not to mention he is a top 5 talent. I'll take Durant over that whiny bitch Lebron but that's just me.

We will see who wins a title first. Durant is closer at than Lebron was at this point in his career.

I gurantee if you swipe lebron with durant right now the heat would be alot better. Lebron has no heart, he dosent know how to win the big game.And if you was reading the post correctly i didnt say he was better then lebron right now, i said he is on pace to be better than Lebron. I would take Durant right now if i was starting a team over lebron. Lebron is lucky he got dwade, because lebron would never get the title if the team was built completly around him.

Durant's been an 8th seed once. Lebron has been to the finals and how many times the conf finals I'm not sure. Again I can't overstate how avg the team surrounding him was. The one thing was they had a defensive mindset as do the Thunder (but much more talent). I was not a fan of Westbrook but I've totally changed my tune. He's def top 5 PG's with lottery talent surrounding the both of them ...

[ThisGuy]

That may be true because D Wade and Lebron totally contradict each other. At the time he was a FA I assumed (and bet - posted here) that he'd go to the Bulls. Woulda won mult champs - worse team he coulda gone to was MIA

Lebron has a higher FG% this year and for his career, way more
assists and averages more rebs. I like Durant, one of my favs players but post complete and correct stats when comparing the two...

[ThisGuy]

He went to where he was comfortable b/c he was friends with the elite/quasi-elite talent around him. Not because it was the best fit. If Miami wasn't run by the players they should trade for an actual sick team around Lebron. But that will never happen

It's gonna be one of histories silly jokes - like how good Wilt was

This was the only mistake I made. Everything else and my Stoudemire comment still stands.

If assists and rebounds mean sh!t, then John Stockton was just as good as Michael Jordan.

Cool, honest mistake. I'm just saying Lebron has better overall stats than Durant. Will Durant be better than Lebron, possible but I don't think so. But winning chips is all that counts and they both still chasing...

[Pap45murF]

It's just silly for people to compare LeBron to Jordan. Jordan won 6 NBA Championships in a decade with a pretty average team (as anyone who played the Jordan-less NBA Jam can tell you... Pippen and Horace Grant? C'mon.) LeBron hasn't won 1 yet.

Let's reserve our judgment until LeBron has accomplished something.

funniest thread ever

[Goat Milk]

LOL! Is Durant a better pure scorer? THere is no question about it.

This post doesn't even mention anything about defense. PACO DO YOU KNOW DEFENSE IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS OFFENSE? LET ME KNOW WHEN DURANT IS 1ST TEAM ALL NBA AND FIRST TEAM ALL DEFENSE like lebron

[PlatinumBerg]

LeBron = Over rated, narcissistic, and ignorant piece of trash. But all you losers want to kiss his feet.

[dynamite140]

both pretty good but lebron better

[Goat Milk]

Durant is not even close to winning a ring yet. Everyone leaving the west because everyone is scared ot play Bryant and the Lakers who will get back to the finals again. Durant will win a ring or 2 (max) before he retires, but it won't be anytime soon.

Also you seem to forget that lebron was in conference finals games and finals against the spurs around the same age as durant. Durant has a lot more potential- you guys odn't even measure DEFENSE

[clamchowder]

Lebron is a joke. This guy is way over paid for his dunk service. Keep Bynum healthy, Lakers all the way.

Check the stats the year MJ was out. What was it? O ya 55 wins with S Pippen 1st half MVP. How many wins the Cavs getting this year? /Argument ender
