I still think the gap is wide at this point. Lebron's just unreal. He's a freaking beast honestly. I've never seen a player like him since Shaq.
OP is wrong. But if you watch them play thegap is narrowing. Durant was already the better pure scorer and now with Lebron's slippage on defense, Durant has crept a bit closer. I still think Lebron is clearly the best player still but KD is the only one close and I would say he is a notch above PG.
1. Lebron
2. Durant
3. George
Durant is closer to Lebron than anyone else Paul, George etc is to KD.
Only two players legitimately worth max in new CBA.

Been there...done this.
As I said in the pre-ejac thread I made about this before, James is better but Durant should pass him as soon as next season but more likely the following season. Playing as a perimeter player with that huge frame will start to take it's toll on James' knees. He will still be very good, but he will slow significantly as he gets on the other side 30.
Which means Lebron fans won't admit he's worse than Durant until 2017 tbh. It took until 2009 or 2010 for Kirbystan to do that with Lebron.
