    as Clipper Nation said, Durant's favorite player growing up was/is Vince Carter, and he patterned his game by watching Tracy McGrady and Larry Bird..The media will fabricate a story about Durant idolizing Kobe, considering they are playing against each other tonight, tbh..

    Kobe hedging his bets for his own team by trying to take credit for KD and Westbrick

    I can see it now... "Mitch, trade me to the Thunder, I need to tutor my proteges some more"

    It would truly be sad if he patterned his game after Wince Carter and T-Wack

    The biggest flaw in your argument is that MJ didn't have to share the ball Period...let alone with Shaq. If you wanna know how much better Kobe would have been than MJ just add Shaqs stats to Kobe's since all Shaq did was take away from Kobes stats....

    MJ had it easy.

    I don't remember Durant or Westchuck demanding a trade to the Lakers to essentially press the Easy button on his career and ensure a star-studded supporting cast.

    What's funny is that LeBron's more like Bird than Durant is, imho....

    Bird and LBJ are/were skilled passing forwards, solid defenders, solid handles, LeBron's just more athletic than Bird was.....

    LeBron has an underrated basketball IQ, though.... from SI:

    Peers often describe James as "a beast," and even though they mean to flatter him, the label dismisses the depths to which he comprehends the game. He can deconstruct the top eight players on every NBA team and many college teams. He can run every set in the Heat playbook from all five positions. In film sessions he sometimes completes Spoelstra's sentences, and at the Olympics, many of Team USA's defensive strategies were suggestions from James in practice. "He's not smart," says Krzyzewski. "He's brilliant. And I don't like to use that word."
    When James is grabbing a rare rest on the Heat bench, he usually sits next to second-year guard Terrel Harris, narrating the action so a young player can see the game through his eyes. During a mid-November- game in Denver, Ray Allen was dribbling upcourt and Rashard Lewis was streaking down the left side. James inched forward in his seat and started yelling, "Rashard, it's coming to you! Get ready to shoot!" Allen raced around a pick-and-roll with Bosh and threw the ball to the corner, where an expectant Lewis caught it and drilled the three-pointer. "How did you know that was going to happen?" Harris asked.

    The standard scouting report given to Heat players before games is two pages. The one James receives is four, filled with the kind of advanced stats reserved for coaches, bloggers and Shane Battier. "I want to know that this guy drives left 70% of the time, or pulls up when he drives right, or likes to cross over after two dribbles," James says. Even when he is with friends, he'll geek out in the middle of casual conversation: "Remember when I drove and kicked to Ray at the four-minute mark in the second quarter. If he'd have drifted into the corner, we'd have had a better shot." Then, after a pause: "So what are you guys getting into tonight?"

    The fact that Kobe wants to be the next Jordan already shows who is better. Who did Jordan want to be the second coming of?

    Actually asshole, it was Shaq's team. We saw what Kobe would have been those couple of years he didn't have a dominant big man to coattail. Never even made his teammates better unlike MJ. Bean = a glorified McGrady.
