    Durant and Westbrook don't compare to Wade and Lebron

    Both monsters but they just don't know how to play together. I've been waiting since they lost in the finals to Miami for them to mature together and dominate.... This is 2 of the top 5 players in the nba on one team. That rarely happens in nba history. Pippen wasn't even a top 5 player in the league at any point. Wade and Bron were, Shaq and Kobe were. Honestly that's about all I can think about.

    Wade and Lebron is the best comparison.... when these guys were together, the first 2 years in particular, they made shitty playoff teams look foolish. In the regular season you see them clowning around and throwing oops to each other, cutting, just making plays for each other. You never see Westbrook and Durant do that. These guys just don't understand what it takes. They could have been the best duo in nba history, but that window is closed now.

    KD is a hellavu lot closer to Dominique than LBJ.

    Wade and Westbrook in the same ballpark, but Wade had a better system AND Shaq or LBJ.
    Wade also had the bigger balls in the biggest moments.

    Westbrook just too out of control

    Wade always makes the right plays and way better clutch player

    NBA teams are about pieces of the puzzle. Westbrook and KD are two ISO players. In the past other teams either trade one or make one the sixth man to split em up to get the most out of them.

    If you had Steve Nash or go back another 10 yrs, John Stockton, instead of Westbrook who is a trip double machine and much better stat stuffer, would OKC have a better record? Would they go further in playoffs?

    Many think Durant is over rated he's one-dimensional and never hits big big shots and of course is not a killer

    Just a wild Jump shooter that's all

    Please stop posting about basketball. Every time you do, you lower the board IQ.

    I've been saying for 2 years now Durant needs to just go to Washington and play with Wall. Both would benefit greatly.

    The funny part is how it was the worst game since jordan did it. Of course jordan only won a title that year.

    Of course it was just an isolated bad game but I can tell you one thing if they lose the series Durrant is a flop for his entire career

    Durant is going to GSW. People out of Warriors are saying Harrison Barnes wants a max deal. Bogut says he'll get it. Might as well let him walk and add Durant.

    The smart move for Durant is to resign with OKC for one season and then figure it out in 2017 when cap gets pumped with tv money. Warriors would have to ship Barnes, Bogut, Iggy to get KD.

    Whoever thinks KD is a great player is nuts or u only watch espn high lights.. To me a ball player, unprofessionally, thinks KD is bum.. dude takes bad shots after bad shots and when he finally makes one everybody thinks he won the championship and celebrated.. i take westbrook over that lil pussee KD with thise chicken legs and wings, he cant do shiet.. i never see him drive in and when he does he looked like a euro player dribbling.. I would love to see kd go and let WB take over..

    Durant still has time to be good. I watched SBR crown Harden, Howard and Chris Paul year in a year out. At least with Durant and Westbrook theres a fire in them that the other three losers dont have
