"Remember when everyone was saying that Harden and Embiid was Kobe and Shaq? Don't yall ever say that again"

May be a bit of a strawman, I never heard anyone suggest that, though I don't live in Philly so who knows? I personally think Curry/KD and Magic/KAJ are up there, though.

Anyone who envisioned Harden as half of a superduo has half a brain cell at best. More than a few still did think that though.

dont forget lebron/wade. kobe/shaq is a tier above everyone else however imo. as for harden/embiid yea a few people said that early on when they thought old harden was coming back but that died quickly. They;re more like wade/shaq in miami lol

A tier above Durant/Curry? Nah

[Akeem34TheDream]

Kobe&Shaq>Curry&KD but those Warriors teams were better than those Lakers teams.

A tier above Durant/Curry? Nah

maybe not a full tier but I dont want to say it that's close either. kobe played like a top 3 player and imo shaq was on another level close to his peak compared to almost anyone else.

I'd have no issue with someone claiming Shaq & Kobe were the superior duo, but it's pretty damn close imo. Like Shaq & Kobe Durant & Curry were both top 3 players during their time together.

I’m pretty sure this is a shot directed at MJ/Pippen (mainly Pippen), than anyone else.

fair enough, I just though durant and curry werent locks for top 3 like shaq/kobe were. kawhi and harden were in the discussion. the 17 playoff run is pretty ridiculous however. No one's impressed because gs' team was so good but that was mostly durant and curry in the playoffs

he's not wrong. best 1-2 punch of all-time.

Amongst the four, only stephen curry still doesn't have any finals mvp yet. :ohwell:
