    Go look at the games Westbrook, Harden, and Ibaka posted. Westbrook was chucking his heart out aside from the 40 point game, which he lost with a boneheaded play int he 4th, and Harden/Ibaka COMPLETELY disappeared. Durant has shown up in every single playoff series he has ever played in aside from 2010, his 1st ever series.

    Shit OKC lost to the NBA champs in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Last year Westbrook got hurt.
    Wade and Bosh were constantly choking throughout the playoffs last couple years. LeBron was still able to carry them to a couple championships despite a 0 pt game 7 performance by Bosh.

    You can't call LeBron a choker and they say that Durant gets a pass for not beating him in the finals. He had Westbrook and Harden... probably the most stacked finals team of all time. Durant should have easily been able to beat "choker" LeBron... mr. "can't handle pressure" James, especially with Harden and Westbrook. All you've pointed out is that LeBron can win rings with his stars choking, but Durant can't win rings with his teammates choking... EVEN WHEN HIS OPPONENT IS A CHOKER

    People still rolling with this ****ing myth? If anything, that's payback because he should've been fouled on before on a Shane Battier charge.

    The only thing I remember is Durant having 4 straight opportunities to beat Memphis in crunch time last year and CHOKING each and every time! That's right, CHOKING 4 straight times in the clutch. Did I mention Durant CHOKED!

    hes still better than LeBron though with his career +/-8.3 in the playoffs compared to +/-8.2.

    at the end of the day, Durant is on pace to beat LeBron. Durant made OKC contenders on just his 3rd yr while it took LeBron 7 years

    After this season? LeBron:

    4x NBA MVP
    3x NBA Champ
    3x FMVP

    KD:
    1x MVP (probably)

    Exactly. That's why Durant has no excuse if he doesn't win the chip this season.

    The Heat were +7.3 in the 2013 playoffs with LeBron on the floor last year. They were +7.1 in playoff games with LeBron off the floor.

    Whatever would have they done without LeBron

    Yep. Probably for Durant, despite the fact he would be unanimous MVP today. Guaranteed ship/FMVP for LeBron despite the fact almost EVERYONE would take the field over them. OKC is EASILY the favorite for the title with a healthy Westbrook. Hell they're 4-1 favorites with his health being a complete question mark

    You put 2011 Wade in place of Westbrook on OKC, and they probably sweep the playoffs this year.

    Hell you put 2011 Wade on OKC in 2011-14 and they're going for a 4peat
