What's the problem here? This was, i assume, a few years ago (not looking as handsome as he is today in the pic)? He looked up to him as a young kid coming into the league, and he's surpassed him as a player. Time for a new role model, no? Why do I need a comeback for this? :oldlol:

He talked about everyone. His hero was MJ and he also looked up to AI. Those two specifically. No problem admiring others but LeBron's role model was MJ for a reasonn. He wanted to emulate him and be as good as MJ was. Now Durant wants to reach LeBron's level. You're right. No shame in that.

He is past that now, LeBron is coasting, but Durant looking up to LeBron when he started isn't bad, he might have wanted to try copy LeBrons game, whatever he has decided to do has worked.

Given that Durant was training under Lebron just a little over an year ago, I's say it's pretty likely he still looks up to him.

Ainge may move Rondo before the deadline, I assume for picks + a young guy, we rebuild through the draft (should be a top 5 pick this year) and free agency, we have a ton of picks to package in trades as well. It's not as bad as you think.

Obv it's fake but yet true that Durant checks what Lebron is up to everynight, don't act like that ain't true. Durant always was #2 his whole life remember? So Lebron is his role model due to his all around game. Why do you think he looks up to Lebron over Kobe? Because Lebron has more impact bro.
