Mcgrady will always have a better prime. If Durant can approach those numbers, then congrats for him.
McGrady was taking 31 shots per game to averaged 33.8 ppg. He took 123 shots in a 4 game series and was swept. The guy shot 41.5% and had a TS% of 48.3, worse than Durant's vs Artest last season.
LOL @ you

Durant had a PER of 16.6 and shot 35% from the field. That is pathetic.

McGrady's first playoff series. 38.6 FG%, 49.0 TS%, 16.7 ppg 15.3 PER
BTW Durant averaged 32/7/4 on 62 TS% the first playoff series of this year. That>>>>Any series McGrady has EVER had

Tmac's peak > Durant's peak for NOW
Also Tmac was way more fun to watch, Durant isn't even the most exciting player on his own team.
If Durant is white, u gonna confuse him with Dirk the way he plays lol

If Durant has a career ending injury today, then Tmac will have better peak and career comparing Durant.
Anyone who can arguing with this statement must be ignorant or blind

Durant plays no defendse. His passing game improved, but it is still weak. TMAC was a much better player. There were times when TMAC was automatic points or free thorws. DURANT gets to the line for a jump shooter, though. It is close but TMAC was a treat to watch. Durant is like whatever for me.

The games where T-Mac wasn't nearly the reason his team lost.
Look at the Orlando/Detroit series, or even Rockets/Jazz. Which both went to 7 games. Did you even watch T-Mac?
