Has any other modern NBA player ever gotten this much support from the GOAT?

Damn! Even MJ thinks it's a joke to pick KD over LeBron and Kobe.

Dude looked bored as hell talking about Kobe and Bran (though he has in the past admitted he respects the hell out of Kobe) and then when asked about KD looked actually engaged in the interview. :applause:

First Shaq nicknamed Paul Pierce the Truth, then Michael Jordan nicknaming KD Flight 35. Can't think of any other legends handing out nicknames like that.

:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol: What the **** you smoking?

Durant's current season at age 25 is better than any regular season either of those guys have had.

Popovich even admitted Durant at age 23 was the best player on the planet over LeBron. Deal with it little btich :oldlol:
You're too young when this happened. LeBron at age 21 averaged 31/7/7 and 30/7/9 at age 25 (All-D First team). KB? Dude had a 35/5/5 season. You KD stans love to bring up KD's streak of 35 PPG since Jan? KB did that for a whole ****ing season and also made the All-D First team. Don't forget his 32/6/5 or 30/7/6 seasons (All-D First team as well).

KD is having a historic season, but you kids are just too young to remember what KB and LeBron were doing 5-10 years ago.

Also, MJ was kidding about KD being the best, you ****ing retard.

Gregg Popovich (one of the GOAT basketball minds) even admitted Durant at age 23 was the best player on the planet over LeBron. You really gonna disagree with Michael Jordan and GREGG POPOVICH? Do you realize how ****ing stupid you sound? Disagree with their opinion on finance, fashion, relationship advice etc, but shit, BASKETBALL? :roll:
You are trolling

Classic LeBron generation "look ma, that man is presenting facts to back up his claim"

"You are trolling"

Sit down clown. Even AJ (likes to use numbers to support his claim) understood to take the loss and move on.
You haven't been watching basketball long with statements like that.

I stopped arguing with you, because you're an idiot. There's no point in arguing with idiots. If it was a reasonable poster like KG215 (or whatever his name is), then I definitely would've replied back.

Like these from my previous post?


You're too young when this happened. LeBron at age 21 averaged 31/7/7 and 30/7/9 at age 25 (All-D First team). KB? Dude had a 35/5/5 season. You KD stans love to bring up KD's streak of 35 PPG since Jan? KB did that for a whole ****ing season and also made the All-D First team. Don't forget his 32/6/5 or 30/7/6 seasons (All-D First team as well).

LeBron was a significantly better offensive player at the same age. 30 points and 9 assists? Who was the last SF to do that? Not to mention he was All-D First team and was 4th in DPOY voting.

As I said previously, KD's 2 months of 35 PPG is cute, but KB did it for an entire ****ing season. He had months averaging 40 PPG during that season. Also, KB's '03 season >> KD's current season, when you take defense into account.

Lebron in his prime, reigning MVP, coming off 2 championships- $300 million in shoes sold in 2013, being overshadowed by a skinny kid from hicksville

Jordan, age 51, hasn't played a game in over a decade- $2.25 billion in shoe sales (55% of the market) in 2013, $90 million made last year alone (more than any athlete on the planet), consensus GOAT.

Yeah, dude is fuming. Probably crying in a dark room wishing he had a bronze medal too :oldlol:
