"He's a great player. You try to put two on the ball it opened up the rebounding and everything else for everybody. It opened up everything for everybody else. He demands a lot of attention. And you got to give credit when credit is due. He's the best player in the world right now." -Noah

noah has called LB The best player in the league B4 Plenty times

but like most of us(beside LB nu t hu g gers) we notice KD Has surpassed him

[navy]

How many times has Lebron knocked Noah out of the playoffs?

[Joyner82reload]

Noah tends to do this. He says something thinking it's transcendent, in reality he's late to the party that everyone has been at for months.

Coming from a true competitor and probably the best defensive player in the league right now:applause:

We tried to guard KD as well as we could, and Butler did an excellent job, but KD still scored 35 points on efficient shooting. It's the same defense that shut Lebron down only a week ago.

[Milbuck]

All trolling, stanning, and bullshit aside, how can anyone totally disregard this statement when you consider how both players have played this season?

Yeah, Noah hates Lebron and the Heat. But he HAS explicitly stated before that Lebron was the best in the world. If we accepted his opinion then, why not now?

[LeGOAT]

Joakim just butt hurt Lebron is 12-3 vs. him and the Bulls in the playoffs. Lebron owns the Bulls franchise. Puff out you chest over them reg. season wins doe.

Living in denial or obsession with the past. At this point in time, Kevin Durant IS and HAS BEEN the best player in the league this year. That's not debatable. That makes him the best player in the world, for the time being. That could easily change in the playoffs, but we can't project the future.

[Joyner82reload]

Well LeBron and his fans did for 8 seasons :confusedshrug:

Lebron is one of the greatest playoff performers of all time

I think you should probably go look at his numbers in the 2007 Finals, 2008 ECSF, 2010 ECSF, and 2011 NBA Finals. HE, and he alone, LOST those series by HIMSELF. He failed his teammates.

[aburre21]

I hate Kd, but the boy is unstoppable right now. That jumpshot of his is damn near automatic and I really don't see how anybody is gonna stop this dude. He has played better ball than LeBron this whole year. Lebron still the GOAT but KD has been the best this year. The playoffs are a whole different story though and we'll see what happens

You can't be serious right? LeBron was playing with scrubs. KD was playing with Westbrook, Harden, and Ibaka. His first time without the first two he fell flat on his face.


Bron has only under performed in a few series and they were all elite defensive teams. Celtics, Spurs, and Mavs

In the 9 playoff games without Westbrook, he averaged 32/10/6/1/1 on 46/34/81 shooting. Boy did he fall flat on his face. Also, are you insinuating that the Grizzlies weren't an elite defensive team? They were arguably better defensively than all the teams you mentioned except the C's.

Yeah, he had some pretty damn disappointing late-game performances, but none close to as bad as Lebron's worst.

All I'm saying is it's absurd to aggressively attack Durant's playoff resume while blatantly disregarding Lebron's past failures.

aint you a fan of the player who was terminated by the Grizz last season??
the same team which then proceeded to get swept by the Spurs??:roll: :roll: :roll:

now how in the hell you gonna explain that doe??
he was tired i gues:oldlol:

[Keno]

07 and 08 were unwinnable. 10 and 11 were legit chokejobs.

how the in the world is 10 a choke job? twenty seven points per game - nine rebounds per game - seven assist per game. those are legendary numbers for a series. lebron in his "choking game/quit game" dropped twenty seven points, nineteen rebounds and ten assists. if that's considered a quit game, then i hope play more players decide to choke.

You clearly didn't watch those games. That was considered a complete meltdown by LeBron.

Up 2-1
Game 4 22 points 7-18 shooting 7 TO's L
Game 5 15 points 3-14 shooting 3 TO's L
Game 6 27 points 8-21 shooting 9 TO's L

That's 21.3 ppg on 34% shooting with 6 TO'g in 3 straight losses to lose the series. How the hell is that not considered a MASSIVE chokejob?

Either that or the Delonte thing has legs. Second half of the series he turned it over so ****ing much.

Choking doesn't mean it's a bad series, just a bad series for GOAT candidate standards.

How did KD do with shutting down LeBron when it was Thunder vs. Heat?

[JohnMax]

Some opponents have a harder time guarding Durant over Lebron such as the Spurs, Bulls, Pacers. Paul George said the same thing earlier in the year about how Durant is hardest to guard.

[ForeverHeat]

Noah is one dumb fvck. :facepalm

Its things like that where guys get overrated for no good reason. Lebron is the reason Noahs arc got split in two during the playoffs, so of course this cvnt is going to find it easy to insult Lebron.

He knows it's the best way to take a shot at Lebron without using Lebron's name. He's so bitter that Lebron has owned his ass. Now Oden will destroy him like he did in college. NCAA championship Oden was shitting on Noah all night.

but like most of us(beside LB nu t hu g gers) we notice KD Has surpassed him

Currently he is playing better. I don't know why you guys seem to think that KD now will be better than Bron forever. Shit could change as early as the playoffs or, even, next year. Bron could go on a hot streak and KD could go on a cold streak. KD could get injured. Look at what happened to Rose.

We can say RIGHT NOW KD is playing better than Bron and hence is the best player in the NBA.

-Smak

[dunksby]

When Noah said LBJ was the best player in the league he was not butthurt, now that he says KD is the best suddenly he loses all credibility.

Bad games happen...

In reality, Bron only has 3 bad series. 2007 against the Spurs, 2008 against the Celtics and 2011 against the Mavs.

That's about the same as most GOAT candidates.
