Well I'm gonna do my best, could be well off though. From what I understand this is a graph showing how efficient the two were on offense based on the percentage of their team possessions that they used throughout their respective careers and at age 25. What I can deduce is that both players' offensive rating have been at highest when using 20-25% of their team possessions. Both see huge drop offs at 35%+ which is natural. KD and MJ at 25 are pretty on par as far as I can tell but for career MJ is at 120 OR using around 34% of TP while KD is at 115 OR using around 28%.

Looks to me like the graph says MJ is capable of sustaining a teams offense on his own more than Durant. Durant sees a significant drop off/downward trend at around 30% while Jordan only sees a slight downward trend until 37-38%.

I.e. the more Durant is required to do, the worse off he is than Jordan in terms of overall offensive production. Nice to see, though we all already know Durant isn't close to Jordan at really any stage so far.
