With Wade and Bosh Playing Awful there is a flip side the HEat won and didnt play great all around as a team..

Also Mike Miller is the heats 4th or 5th best player so he will be a boost once he gets back..

Swish? That tenth of a second when the ball bounced up off of the rim was the most intense moment in recent basketball history. Time actually slowed down. It was surely intentional.

Every Kobe fan has moved on from Kobe and has accepted the fact that he is no longer the best. I can't think of any Kobe fan that actually believes he is the best anymore. They all say Durant is the best because he is the only one that has an argument over LeBron and the potential to surpass LeBron. Nobody says Durant is better than LeBron and actually likes Durant and has nothing against LeBron.

You don't have to be tell me or argue with me that he is the best by the way, you could just let everyone else knows who is reading this thread why Durant is better than LeBron.

Of course you actually have no reason to say Durant is better than LeBron other than the fact that you hate him. :oldlol:

I know Durant's arguments over LeBron are but I'm just asking this idiot to list it for me. It's clear that he can't even list one reason why he is better because he knows that he simply says Durant is better because he doesn't like LeBron.

He is basing his opinion off of his emotion which is sad. He is too emotional to analyze this game objectively.

I think he could surpass Kobe and LeBron but I'm not so sure if he could ever surpass MJ. I would say top 5-10 is his highest peak of potential.

Right now Durant's weaknesses are abilities and skills. He has the mental ability to become a top 10 player of all-time but he absolutely does not have the physical skills to do so at least for now.

I don't know.. he is kind of passive. At least compared to Kobe/MJ/Shaq etc. Doesn't DEMAND the ball like those guys.

I think he'll have an awesome career, but I can't see cracking the top 10. I do hope so though! Maybe if he wins a couple rings and FMVP, as well as a couple MVP over the next 5 years. Who knows, lots of ifs ATM and it's all speculation. He does need to quit turning the ball over so much though. Poor guy does have to dribble the ball so bloody high I guess.. easier to get it stripped.

I didn't say Durant is there yet. I said Durant has the potential to be there and be a top 5-10 player of all-time.

Improve your comprehension skills. I know you are already good at stealing opinions from other people but now it's time to improve the comprehension skills.


I don't know.. he is kind of passive. At least compared to Kobe/MJ/Shaq etc. Doesn't DEMAND the ball like those guys.

I think he'll have an awesome career, but I can't see cracking the top 10. I do hope so though! Maybe if he wins a couple rings and FMVP, as well as a couple MVP over the next 5 years. Who knows, lots of ifs ATM and it's all speculation. He does need to quit turning the ball over so much though. Poor guy does have to dribble the ball so bloody high I guess.. easier to get it stripped.
He needs to add muscle too and not for his post-scoring either but for his rebounding ability. He falls down a lot when crashing the boards and he's not even flopping either. He legitimately gets beat up when he tries to rebound.

Durant doesnt have that potential.All players in top 5 had really no weaknesses in their game.Consider this player he has to surpass: MJ,Magic,Bird,Kareem,Wilt,Shaq,Kobe,Oscar,Hakeem,M oses Malone.He just doesnt have that potential.I see him ending up as high as 10th on that list.

Well you sure convinced me. I'll be sure to listen to some guy who steals every single one of his opinions from RealGM because he is incapable of thinking for himself. :oldlol:

You understand that Durant is not done improving right? He has the potential to be a top 5-10 player of all-time, more realistically top 10 than top 5 though.

You simply dont understand what i mean.He is gonna improve a lot,however he will never be a playmaker to be the complete player other top 10 players were.Thats the problem.He is fantastic player probably will be top 20.However he just doesnt have that natural ability,other top 10 players like MJ,bird,kobe,magic has.To dominate the game in every aspect.Dont forget wilt,shaq,duncan,malone all better passers than he is.He cant dominate a game if he is not scoring thats the problem.Other players top 10 players showed that potential from their rookie seasons.If you are that blinded thats your choice.

Let me put it this way,in his 5 year career he never averaged more assists than turnovers.This is why even with two time mvp we never consider nash even top 30 or 40.A player has to be almost perfect in everyway to seperate himself from others.Durant is not and will never be.

i thought lebron wrapped up his 3rd mvp?

STFU fk face

If you think 10/27 FG with 9 T/O will lead to 1st MVP. think again!

LBJ is by far the best player in the NBA by a mile at 10/14 FG with tons of steals.

What people don't understand is that we're not saying "will he be top 5 if he stays the way he is right now", we're saying "will he be top 5 if he continues to get even better the way he has the past few years, continuously improving"...

There's a difference. Of course he wont be top 5 if he stays the same, but it doesn't seem like he's reached his ceiling yet. He's gotten better every year since he's been in the league, and there's no reason to say he's done getting better either. He could be a 30/10 player next year... when's the last time that's been done? He's not that far off from those numbers as it is.

Yup, Dallas outplayed the Thunder throughout the game, they just had mental lapses at the end. Dallas beat themselves, Thunder won due to a prayer

Is that not exactly how Dallas won last year? OKC led them going into the 4th a couple of times.

Give credit where credit is due. OKC made adjustments, stepped up their defense, and closed out the game.

Yea. Terry didn't touch the ball the last five minutes. He did nothing. Have to give Westbrook/Thunder a ton of credit for that.
