Not if you're supposed to be the best player in the world...

Still? He's literally never been the best. He even said so himself:

This was before his historic season on route to the coveted MVP award.

If anything, I commend his hunger and the fact that he actually came through.

It will be a fight for #1 next year between the two alpha dogs of the NBA.... Kevin Durant and King James

Cannot wait!

This upcoming season is the most important one yet.

He is only referring to accolade awardeeships, and the superlativity in those awards aren't always indicative of a player's individual impact on the team

A healthy KD is the best scorer in the world. And the MOST PREMIUM ASSET in the sport is the alpha dog scoring. The fact that he is a pure shooter in addition to that makes him devastating. He has also developed into a very good all around player as well.

But Bron is SO COMPLETE and can match KD's scoring output. So I'm inclined to still say Bron is the best in the world. But KD is such a beast that he SHOULD BELIEVE in himself and feel he's the best in the world! At least when it comes to scoring, I would give KD the upper hand.

I know you guys use stuff like this just to troll each other because you have nothing else to do...but in truth, I love stuff like this. Its the closest thing we get to trash talking in this game anymore. He SHOULD believe he's the best player in the world and I hope he comes out playing like it, trolls and haters be damned.

should worry about being the best player on his team first

Westbrook leading the team without KD led to missing the playoffs. reminds me of someone that also missed the playoffs when the big shot on his team left.

Remind me, did either of those teams win the championship?

try being the best player on your team before claiming you're the best player in the world..

There's something really annoying about this video - it's how the media members laughed when Durant said he was the best.. The same thing that caused the media to laugh at Durant, is the same thing that caused them to give Iggy the Finals MVP instead of Curry.

But it's okay - Durant has paid his dues the last few years.. Meanwhile, Lebron has cashed in his team-hopping credits for a couple rings, while making the Finals repeatedly due to weak conference - obviously, Lebron misses the Finals in 2011, and 2013-2015 in the West...

This kind of charade can't carry on forever, and I think the karma and time is right for Durant to expose Lebron in the 2016 Finals.. Durant's been struggling in the tough west, while Lebron has cakewalk in the East... If the roles were reversed, we'd be talking about Durant in 5 straight Finals.

Very true; LeBron probably still is the best in the game (if only by a hair), but KD should feel good about himself, seeing as if there's any player that can give Bron a run for his money, it's him. Honestly if I have to play against the King in any game and I have KD on my side, I'm gonna like my chances

[ArbitraryWater]

Honestly, I'm a huge LeBron fan, but he's not better than a KD that is able to get out on the court :lol

cmon

KD was about to take over last year, now it's been postponed by a year.

Isolation Stats - 2015 Regular Season:

DURANT: 56% fg.. 1.25 PPP
LEBRON: 40% fg.. 0.93 PPP

LEBRON PLAYOFFS: 33% fg.. 0.70 PPP

http://stats.nba.com/playtype/#!/isolation/?dir=1&PT=player&OD=offensive&sort=PPP


Durant's isolation stats led the league among starters.. I totally see why Durant recently said he's STILL the best player in the world.

He saw how horrifically Lebron shot in the 2015 playoffs on all those isolations.. And Durant knows what the stats above show - that he would've done FAR better in the same isolation spots... Can you imagine Durant isolated all alone like that on the strongside... omg.. :facepalm

If a player isn't good at 1-on-1, I don't respect their game.

Westbrook isn't better than durant.
