Edit: 5 star.
We got these bois shaking :roll: I can't wait to hear it
Shit, forget winning a ring, can KD get out of the 1st round with Kyrie? :roll:
KD never fully recovered from his injury. They never really played as a team this season.
Durant's legacy is in shambles.

Worst excuse ever. Dude is healthy. Just can't figure out Boston's defense.
circumstance
KD and Kyrie highly overrated as offensive powerhouses OR they just gave up for whatever reasons. I'm not sure what's going on. Everyone saying they're the greatest offensive duo in NBA history yet might get swept by the Celtics. The Celtics defense is good but if these guys are that great offensively, I can't see them getting swept like this. This is embarrassing.
legoat would be averaging 35 right now vs these c's. been there, done that.
[QUOTE=Airupthere;14584114]KD never fully recovered from his injury. They never really played as a team this season.[/QUOTE]
Durant just averged 30ppg on 52%/28%/90% along with 7.4rpg and 6.4apg
Yes he is fully recovered and back to normal. He just is choking.

And weaker east back then compared to now

After all the great games KD’s had over the last couple years, yeah, let’s blame the injury :lol

Prime KD would have averaged much more than that in today’s game.
[QUOTE=post;14584122]circumstance[/QUOTE]
i have a hard time seing how KD with Irving getting swept in the 1st round by Tatum/Brown is a circumstance so unlucky it could negate winning championships with an early prime Irving.

surely you can do better than throwing random shit out there :lol

They are about to get SWEPT in the 1st fvxking round. :lol
LeBron beat this same Boston team by himself in 2018, Boston is better now, but LeBron didn't have a 2nd option. This Nets team is way better than that 2018 Cavs team. Just shows you how dominant LeBron was.
3ball most likely not showing his face tonight :lol Just a devastating series for his agenda.
Bran played in a weaker Conference and didn't have COVID when Kyrie was on his team.
As much as some want to hate on Lebron, he won a ring with Kyrie vs one of the best teams in NBA history. The Nets looking like they might get swept in the 1st round. That says a lot. Even the Lebron haters know that.

hell he didn't even have a bruce brown. i believe 5 c's players averaged more ppg than love in that series.
[QUOTE=ImKobe;14584164]Bran played in a weaker Conference and didn't have COVID when Kyrie was on his team.[/QUOTE]
Bran also would have won 2/2 championships with Kyrie if he hadnt had the ankle injury, and won 1 championship anyway against a team much better than these Celtics :lol
[QUOTE=ImKobe;14584164]Bran played in a weaker Conference and didn't have COVID when Kyrie was on his team.[/QUOTE]
I've been telling you for a while Kyrie isn't that great. Eat shit.
[QUOTE=Nilocon165;14584173]Reminder: This person isn’t trying to be satirical[/QUOTE]
:oldlol:
realize how he says "Bran" because he feels the shame of being a loser?
So he kind of has to give it a sarcastic twist?
Thats that shame inside of him.
Its hard to say dumb shit completely stone faced.

Serious answer:
LeBron has extremely high playmaking and floor general capabilities that KD doesn't have.
This playmaking / floor general ability is extremely useful in the playoffs, and is the reason why LeBron is a better player than KD can ever be.
Also, LeBron is much stronger than KD, so smaller players playing physical with LeBron just doesn't work as well as it does on KD.

:roll:
He went from Giannis overrated to top 5.
Curry overrated to top 5.
LeBron gonna end up as his GOAT when this series is over. :lol

Maybe, maybe not. The Warriors had a great team in 2015. Even with Kyrie, it's a tough sell once the Warriors went away from Bogut in that series.
Irving & Harden both got injured last year, so that's a ring that KD probably would have won otherwise.
You can also make the Ben Simmons excuse this year as he is one of the 3 best players on the Nets and hasn't been able to play a single minute.
Can't wait to hear this one lol.

The fact that KD probably would have won a ring with Kyrie AND Harden isn't saying anything.
Yeah, he better have.
Congrats?
What does Ben Simmons have to do with this? Why are you relying on additional stars being pushed into this for KD to win with Irving? :lol
Legit KD's team right now is better than LeBron's Cavs support so don't even try it.
he's actually right that kd never fully recovered. he definitely lost a step getting to the rim. but that isn't coming back and he scored efficiently all season so no excuse.

whatever there will be like 100 threads about this so people can pontificate about nothing

im assuming you have no rationalization for your claim?
another L for 3ball. kyrie was the real supposed GOAT, remember?
lebron only finals MVP over a 70-win team.

The Nets were beating the Bucks even without Harden, he needed just one of those guys healthy.
Ben Simmons is a star player. As flawed as he might be, the Nets could have really used his defense/rebounding/playmaking & transition offense in this series.
KD's team right now (minus Simmons) is not better than the 2016 Cavs. He has a bunch of guards and the corpses of Drummond/Griffin/LMA. Bran had much better defensive players around him and a better coach.
Kevin Durant’s career in the playoffs:
With Golden State: 38-10 (.792)
With OKC & BK: 57-49 (.538)
*♂️*♂️*♂️
[QUOTE=1987_Lakers;14584223]The same Ben Simmons that was too scared to shoot last playoffs? :lol[/QUOTE]
Who cares about the scoring. The Nets could have really used his playmaking/defense/rebounding transition offense. You don't need to put the ball in Simmons' hands in the 4th, even 20 minutes of Ben Simmons playing great defense would have been a massive upgrade over Drummond/Claxton, enough to at least swing one of the 3 games in the series.
3ball loses again. :applause:
