Whose better right now: Kevin Durant or Lebron James?

[russwest0]

I don't see how Durant is 1A and 1B with LeBron. I don't see any reason to take Durant over him besides age.

Or maybe because of the fact that he outplayed LeBron last season, with a worst supporting cast in in a tougher conference.

Desperate for what?

Durant outplayed everyone last season, and now you call him the best and they post the same gif over and over until they think it's enough to somehow prove that they are right

I get a kick out of it, really. They have no argument so they resort to the ol' faithful

Our supporting cast was terrible last year, but LeBron did take it easier last year especially on defense. That doesn't mean anything though. Just because Durant outplayed him doesn't mean he's better. LeBron just took it easy in the regular season; he's still better than Durant.

LBJ da best

I love Durant, but give me Lebron. KD still gets pushed around too much and resorts to shooting three pointers too often. No legitimate reason for KD's free throw percentage to drop to .77% against Memphis and .76% against the Spurs except for succumbing to pressure and nerves.

So next season once Durant plays better than LeBron again, LeBron is still better, he's just taking it easy?

FUKK, it all makes sense now!!!!

The Servant isn't the best player in the game until he conquers his demons in the playoffs.

So demolishing the Grizzlies in games 6 and 7 never happened....

You saw how awful Durant was in the playoffs. LeBron clearly took it easy. I watched basically every Heat game, LeBron took it easy. And before you say the East is weak, Durant got shut down by some flaws in his game. He needs a post game and to get stronger. I'd still take LeBron right now. He's more of a complete player, but Durant will probably be the best in a year or two.

Durant's playoffs really became meaningless after the Reggie Jackson Game.

This is the difference between Durant and Bran.

Durant puts up 30/9/4 vs three contenders in the playoffs, and now that's "awful."

LeBron plays like shit and the story is "he needs more help!"

Durant outplays LeBron all season long and now, "LeBron took it easy."

But switch the roles with LeMediaDarling outplaying Durant all year, and "Durant won't be the best until he proves it with his play..."

Lebron w/o question



The only thing Durant did better this season was shoot more and get to the Ft line to pad those offensive numbers.

Durant had to take 3 more shots and almost 3 more Ft's per game to avg 5 more points whereas lebron gets buckets without be heavily reliant on Ft's





lebron also shot over a whopping .060% points better


Lebron also had a higher Ts%, rebounding and ast rates



so no, Durant doesn't rebound better than lebron.
