"Kevin Durant will be the best in 3 years"-Kenny Smith, before 2011 NBA season

[Rodmantheman]

durant is better than lebron as rose was better than lebron when he won the mvp ... leading a mvp race or being a mvp doesn't mean that guy is the best in the world.

[IncarceratedBob]

kobe only won 1 mvp and yet he was clearly the best player in the world from 07-11

Rose however didn't have better numbers than Bran & there were about 4-5 guys better than him that season at the very least.

KD is running away with the MVP while averaging 31.8 7.6 5.6 on 51/40/87 shooting & leads the league in PER, OWS,WS & WS/48, D.Rose did none of that.

Let's be real here, KD has been far more impressive than Bran this season.

2011
LeBron 26.7 ppg 7.5 rpg 7.0 apg 59.4 TS% 27.3 PER .244 WSp48
Rose 25.0 ppg 4.1 rpg 7.7 apg 55.0 TS% 23.5 PER .208 WSp48

2014
LeBron 26.8 ppg 6.9 rpg 6.5 apg 64.8 TS% 29.1 PER .262 WSp48
Durant 31.8 ppg 7.6 rpg 5.6 apg 63.9 TS% 30.4 PER .308 WSp48

How is that anything remotely alike? LeBron was CLEARLY superior to Rose meanwhile in 2014, LeBron is CLEARLY inferior to Durant

[Inferno]

Don't worry guys, Joyner will disappear again once KD has a bad game and LeBron goes on a run.
