the means by which LeBron won his first title with having to ditch his team (on live TV) and team up with other stars to do so?

Just curious, since I believe if Durant wins the title it will be something brought up rather often when comparing the two.

It really doesn't matter.


On the court Durant hasn't had one season like Lebron 08-13.

Period. It's taken LeBron getting older and having to save himself for the 3-peat for KD to sneak out an MVP. And the stats are more comparable this year than people might think.

Let's stop pretending their careers are comparable from a team standpoint. I'm sure if the Cavs drafted multiple great players for LeBron, he'd have stayed.

Durant's the best player in the world from here on out.

Durant stans are unmatched when it comes to hypothetical situations :oldlol:

LeBron going into your s.hithole city and making your franchise player cry really messed you h.icks up

You don't think current KD is on 08 LeBron's level? Or did you mean 08 as in the start of the 08-09 season?

Yea 09. That's when his defense became All-NBA level.

Durante OKC team has been better than anything Lebron had when he was in Cleveland. I think Durant wins but if is a lot closer than many people think it is.

Is 2011 LeBron or 2014 KD a reasonable question?

How about people wait and let things play out before making pointless threads.....

Let's be honest. Durant will most likely choke again, and OP and the rest of Durant stans will be nowhere to be seen for at least an year.

Nobody really cares about durant aside from his stans and haters. Sure he is a great player, but the league has seen a lot of great players already. He is not as polarizing like mj kobe and lbj. :confusedshrug: :confusedshrug:

I understand you are a troll, but for real, could you try harder? You really think if the Cavs had a borderline top 5 player plus a dpoy candidate (not to mention got rid of a top 10 talent) that he wouldn't have won in Cleveland and stayed?

You either luck into a good team or end up like perennial loser, can't blame Lebron for saying f that, hell it was Pat and Wades idea, and they are right.

If Cleveland drafted LeBron a Russell Westbrook, he would have stayed.

Fact.

Lmfao..

So KD stans choose to ignore what had actually happened when the Servant lost with 2 other top 10 guys and dpoy and a bunch of great role players to the King, and always talk about Servants imaginary title when the PO hasn't even started

Pathetic to be a stan of someone who has nothing to boast besides some RS scoring titles

Saying James Harden was a top 10 player in 2011, or that Ibaka was the DPOY

Well think about who these KD stans really are. Just their KD's championship reign, their sex life is also theoretical.

Durant never quit on his team though, so that is equal to Bron's 2 rings. I'm
not talking about leaving a team, I'm talking about quitting by not giving a shit while on the floor and giving up. Go rewatch the footage.
