Durant can get it done on a higher TS% from anywhere on the floor than either of these two guys and averages nearly as many points as Jordan did and more than Kobe does. GOAT volume+efficiency scorer.

Why you grouping Jordan and Kobe together... obviously Durant is better than Kobe, but MJ is the GOAT for a reason.

Kobe, yes.

MJ, arguable.

that season from mj is obviously better than kd's, but i just wanted to say that those 53 and 50 cant be compared. kd shoots and scores way more 3s than jordan, hence the lower %.

MJ still goat tho

Jordan's career FGA is higher than Durant's single season high.

huh ur not very smart are u? what do percentages got to do with volume?

kd shoots more 3s, which have a lower avg%, therefore it bring his fg% down. mj scores more on post up mid range layups and few 3s, so his percentages are bigger cuz those shots are theoretically harder. cuz like lbj having a huge fg%, but not having a big % outside the paint. thats why TS% or eFG% is better for analyzing.

Once again, % have nothing to with volume and totals

who gives a shit? it's a good thing to shoot higher % shots. Durant doesn't have the ability to play in the post anyways.

Debatable. Durant is more efficient. Dude is averaging 20.6 FGA and averaging 32.2 ppg. Amazing. It's the Dantley efficiency.

Some of these Durant threads seem like troll threads. But I will bite.

If Durant is better as a scorer than Kobe or Jordan (yikes), is the league MVP and all that.... then what is Durant's excuse if he does not win a ring this year? I'm curious.

You also forgot that KD is playing against defenses that are far more complex and advanced than they were in MJ or KB's eras. It took 10 NASA computers working in conjunction to come up with the type of complicated floating zones and zone sandwiches Slim sees (and eats) on every possession. Plus the defenders are bigger and stronger now, much more athletic. Shane Battier and Tony Allen make the Space Jam monsters look like infants who just learned to walk.

Truly, he is the GOAT :bowdown:

Can get it done on a higher TS% from anywhere on the floor?

WTF that makes 0 Fn sense


Jordan scored MORE Points on Better FG% than Durant
For his whole career no less

How the flying f is Durant a Better scorer seriously

Thats likee saying Reggie Miller was a better scorer than Shaq and Wilt bc
Reggie had a Higher TS%,
just NO.

How is 32 on 50% fg better than 37 on 53%
So youre telling me scoring 5 less points on 3%fg worse is Better bc Durant shoots 3s and FRee throws


Who gives a sht if you score from post,midrange,three
what matters is who makes them and who makes them the most

For yall trolls who say b b but Durant shoots 3s so his fg% is lower--
well Thats Durants fault for shooting them in the first place

Wilt,Jordan,Shaq,Karl Malone,Kareem didnt need to shoot 3s to be great scorers
But in your minds B b but their TS% is worse bc some coildnt shoot ft or 3s like
FG% doesnt matter


Oh and GOAT Volume and EFFICIENCY
Durant is not close period
Wilt,Shaq,Kareem,Jordan,Karl Malone,Oscar Robertson

B b but no 3s TS%

37 on 53% beats 32 on 50
not to freakin mention that Wilt and Jordan FOR their CAREERS
AVG 30 on 50%
Durant is not even close
Durant has one great season and all of a sudden hes better than every dominant scorer,What kind of crap are yall on?

I guess Durant could probably score 70-80 points a game with the help of his teammates - given that's what he needed in order to win the scoring title or other scenarios like that.

MJ averaged 33.4 ppg in the playoffs for his CAREER :biggums:

Neither Kobe or Durant have ONE playoff year with a higher ppg than 33.4

Durant does not have anything close to the skillset and versatility of Kobe and MJ. This thread is a disgrace

T-Mac was another 45% FG shooter like Kobe who was great. Is Durant better than T-Mac as a scorer?

Nope. Prime T-Mac was lethal with scoring, play-making and array of shots. KD's game is really basic compared to T-Mac. Ridiculous range, pullups and straight line drives...plus he gets every call
