Rose because of his quickness. That can create a lot more damage than having a great shot like Durant. Rose can develop a jumper, but his first step is amazing.

I still cant get the bench press thing out of my mind though. How much could Durant not lift again?

If I made this poll yesterday, 90% would vote Durant. After today, it's Rose! I would've voted Durant yesterday too:lol

185. Doesn't seem to be holding him back any.

People are overrating Rose because of today. He did it against Rondo. Wow.

Guys like Durant are a dime a dozen in the league. Guys like Rose are rare. There is no substitue for great PG's and Centers.

Exactly.

Look at the Boston Celtics last year. Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins is the reason they won it all.

Rondo's a solid defender FWIW.

Durant. The idiot that said "dime a dozen" is a moron. Durant's wing span and skills are NOT a fucking dime a dozen.

Rose is ruthless... Durant isn't, and Durant has Westbrook, we don't know how much of a leader he is.

Rose wants the ball in the 4th, and just like he demolished the Spurs, he's been doing it to the whole league... I think they can take down the Heat just because of him.

I'd still take a 6.10 guy that is currently the best shooter in the league and is just entering his prime. Pair him up with a good PG and you got an automatic contender.

Heat won 4-1, Rose was a non-factor...

I don't like either one of the two but I'd go with Durant. Rose is an overrated gangbanger...

Overrated?

Most unstoppable player in the league with Dirk's decline

Lebron must not know how unstoppable he is after the ECF last year

NewcastleKEG

03-12-2012, 05:44 PM

The choice is Durant

A) This is currently the golden age of Point Guards in the NBA
B) Durant's size is undeniable. He has the chance to reproduce what Dirk did last year

Post the players who have what? Averaged more than a point per shot against the Heat in the playoffs? That should be easy.

:lol calling my takes "novice" when you think that scoring 117 points off 120 shots is some impressive feat.

Who have what? The Heat have played only 4 playoff series since Lebron took his talents there.

In the regular season, past 2 seasons (3 games total), Parker is scoring over 1.4 points per shot attempt. Just an example.

Kidd (who shot below 40% from the field in last year's playoffs) managed to score 46 points on 36 attempts (1.28 average) over the 6 games of the finals.

Rose scored 117 points on 120 shots. That's less than one point a shot. Are you seriously trying to make a point with that? :lol

He racked up 117 points in 5 playoff game. He carried his team offensively. Don't give me this, guy made 2 outta 3 shots thus he would have scored 50 more times against one of the better defenses in the league

120 points on 117 shots is chucking, not carrying a team. Rose got shut down and exposed in 5 games...
