[russwest0]

They both looked better than him tonight.

[buddha]

he wasn't even trying...

[Cocaine80s]

[lilteapot]

1. No way
2. He was coming off the bench
3. They never will
4. OP is a weakling

[Dragic4Life]

Westbrook yes.

Harden is on his way.

[You Cant Ban Me]

Harden yes

Westbrook and Durant are =

[Jlamb47]

Durant only competition in the league is Lebron

Harden and Westbrook are next tier below along with Davis and Curry

[Lebronxrings]

:applause:

even russwest can admit it

[Jlamb47]

They both looked better than him tonight.

A day when he plays 9 min due to injuries. He was also suppose to start in the all star game and Kerr changed it last minute for Alridge because Durant didnt want to play too many minutes.

[Budadiiii]

I honestly thought Westbrook embarrassed himself a little. He took 28 shots, which was like 10 more than anyone else. :lol

But still, no one has surpassed Durant. If Harden has surpassed by not ever making it out of the first round then Melo surpassed LeBron a long ass time ago. At least he's made a WCF. :roll:

[beastee]

Westbrook is the epitome of the all star game. An alpha who wants to shove it down everyones throat. He got the keys to drive from Kerr and went crazy. Very fun to watch. Durant is a Beta type, so isnt looking to impress anyone at an exhibition. Let's see who leads them if they make the playoffs...

Durant was the leading scorer in All-Star game history coming into the game. He only played 10 minutes, and took it easy because he's still not healthy.

Durant averaged 30/9/4 last playoffs and has been leading this team since his rookie year. He turned a shit franchise into a perennial contender. Didn't take any shortcuts like some of the betas in the league.

This, except I rate lebron as clear #1

I like Durant, so I am not hating. Thunder are my western conf. team. I fully expect him to go off if they make the playoffs.

[ShawkFactory]

Sure, why not..

[Jlamb47]

No one must of watched the game. Durant clearly didnt try or play minutes

True, but this question has been getting asked for a while now.

Lebron is #1 when the team is winning but once they hit a roadblock, players like even Kawhi Leonard, Jason Terry are better than him. He didn't even try to compete and keep his team in the games in the Finals last year. He allowed his team to get blown off the floor and decided to go after stats once the games got out of hand.

He is the ultimate frontrunner. Will stab his brother in the back to chase his own false legacies :lol

[Jlamb47]

True, but this question has been getting asked for a while now.

I dont think anyone in the world ever considered Harden > Durant until this season. Harden is leading NBA in points but Durant was putting up 32 PPG last year and won MVP. Hes only been hurt and hasnt been 100% healthy. If Durant was healthy i could see him winning another MVP.
Now for Westbrook, the only reason people ask this question for him is due to last year playoffs. Dude literally went monster and is doing it agian this year but, Durant is so much more efficient than these 2 at scoring though, shooting over 50%. He usage rate went down as well and Westbrook has the ball more which explains the assist numbers but when Durant is healthy and at 100% hes clearly better then both players with no question. Durant is probably the best player in the world along with Lebron

1. Durant/Lebron

Harden,Westbrook,Curry,Davis

That guy is a troll. No point in even responding. His basketball knowledge starts and ends with "LeBron"

He knows nothing about basketball or sports in general.

Yeah man too many Lebron stans with no knowledge. I hate Lebron but i atleast give credit, most of these trolls cant give credit. Scared of Durant suprassing Lebron.

Yep. Even entertaining the thought that Westbrook/Harden could be better players than Durant makes you automatically a troll with no knowledge.

Guys like that instantly lose whatever credibility they had. To be fair, posters like him never had any to begin with so it's not really surprising.

[ZMonkey11]

The true question is has Kyle Korver become a second tier player?

He outplayed almost everyone on the court tonight.


ISH. Where All-Star game performances account for where a player should be ranked in the league.

Funny thing is they know deep inside Durant >
Last year was enough for me to put Durant at the top. Carried a westbrook less squad to wins while being MVP and leading NBA in scoring. Also shooting over 50% and averaging 5.5 assist. dude was an animal

He was clearly fatigued come playoff time and still managed to average a measly 30/9/4 with defenses solely focused on stopping him.

Westbrook is great but he'll never be the player Durant is. Harden won't ever get close.

[greatest-ever]

Passed him in what sense?

Both Westbrook and Harden are having better seasons, but that's because Kd has been hurt. A healthy Kd is a tier above them.

[Fudge]

Kevin Durant is the best player in the world and I am the greatest poster in ISH history.

God damn, when was the last time Lebron paid rent? Can you even remember that far back?

[Megabox!]

Westbrook and Harden aren't better than KD dude, Durant has just been battling injuries all season

[MP.Trey]

russwest used to be on KD's nuts so hard calling him the best player in the world, and now just cause he's injured he's off the bandwagon. :roll:

If Westbrook and Harden are better, that makes KD, what? 4th or 5th best player in the league according to you now? :roll:

[Fudge]

You nerds got trolled by russ. :lol

OP=legend.
