i see what you did there
Lebron
Durant
Kobe
This year. If you want to win a championship. Do you pick Lebron or Durant?
i see what you did there
Lebron crushes Durant in virtually every statistical category, and he's unquestionably more valuable to his team(by a large margin)..Lebron is the better rebounder, passer and defensive player..
Lebron has also went up against superior defensive teams in the playoffs, with one of his big 3 missing, too..
Durant is the more clutch player and better shooter, those are his only advantages..
You have to win on the road to win in the playoffs, and I'll take Lebron to do that over Durant.
That might change if OKC wins this series, but I don't see them winning one in SA.
Who exactly has Miami played?
A Knicks team without Lin, Shump, and Amare on one hand?
Indiana who would be the 6th-8th best team in the West?
Boston, i respect, but they have a ton of injuries.
And OKC has won games in Dal, LAL, and have had by far a tougher road thus far then LeBron this year, not close.
Yeah, those Knicks are the 90's Bulls defensively, same with Indiana
I'll give you Boston.
Lebron's game 5 win in Detroit in the 2007 playoffs was 10x as impressive as any playoff road win from Durant. I'm not just considering this year, I'm talking career.
Even with Wade, Lebron has to do more for Miami to win than Durant does for OKC to win. He's still far superior at making his teammates better than Durant is.
I don't disagree, that was one of the best playoff performances of all-time.
Durant is just 23, his career is just getting started
Never argued that, i've said many times, he's the best player in the game, but with the game on the line, gimme KD.
Lakers and Mavericks were s s of their former selves. Not even close to the teams that beat OKC the previous two years.
And as I said, if Durant finds a way to win this series, my opinion might change. I want to see him win a series where OKC doesn't have HCA.I don't disagree, that was one of the best playoff performances of all-time.

Dallas, probably, they still have Dirk who is still a beast, a good enough role players, and a great coach in Carlisle.
Lakers had Kobe, Bynum, Gasol, Artest, and Sessions had good games at times.
Were they what they were in 09-10, no, but still better then anything Miami has played this postseason.
Ok so what exactly are you trying to accomplish in this thread if you agree with Lebron being the better player?
So tell me how Miami is a better team then OKC?
Based off what, your homerism?!?!
I still don't take you serious enough. Walking on egg s s a couple days ago, not giving the Thunder a chance and now look at you. You're a joke...
They were down 0-2, odds are still for SA to win the series, Game 5 should be a good one.
Lebron is the most complete player in the league, despite his well known flaws.
Obviously, this is a team game, and that's why he won't ring this season again, but not entirely his fault (or Wade's fault) at all.
Still days ago you were hoping not to get swept and saying the Spurs were too good, I called you out on giving up. Now you're posting threads calling Durant the best closer. Front running at it's best. Quite sad tbh
They were down 0-2, odds are still for SA to win the series, Game 5 should be a good one.
I'm going to play devils advocate. Lebron faced Indiana and NY. The Celtics are obviously a broken down and older team. Durant faced Shawn Marion, Artest and is now facing quite possibly the second best defnesive team in the playoffs and he's holding down thee forth quite well.
Lebron has 1 flaw in his remarkable game but unfortunately this happens to be the biggest factor in deciding games.
If I want to win a championship this year and I want one man to take my team to championship, as much as I love Lebron, I'd pick Durant at this point and time. Lebron's just too unreliable in clutch situations.
This. KD > LeHype
How did 2007 end for LeHype? Shows you how much of a joke the EC was that year.
Spurs are still too good, both of these teams are great, it's the best series of these playoffs so far, great basketball.
And i've said before KD is the best closer in the game, nothing really can change my argument, he's ice cool in the clutch.
Like Durant..... but gotta go with Lebron. is a better all around player
Lebron is one of the most well rounded players the league has ever seen. He instantly makes a team a playoff contender.
Durant is passive, tries to fit into the system and allows Westbrook to dictate the offense. He's the best scorer in the league, but only because Lebron shares a role with Wade. He's the best shooter, I think. Lebron is top 2 defensive player in the league, top 2 offensive player. You don't get much more rounded than that. I'd take his defense over just about anyone else in the league. You have to factor in FT shooting. People seem to dismiss that but it's huge and Durant is a beast at the line, like Dirk. That wins games and series.
Now he if can just get over the choke factor, but Durant still has to prove he can make it to the Finals before we can see if he's as clutch as we think he is. He was great in the FIBA games.
