what are you talking about

That you won't accept the fact that Popovich called LeBron the best player in the world after the 2014 finals

If he leads them to a title as the clear cut alpha dog, then even I will give him his best player in the game props. However, it is hard for me to see that happening. Westbrook thoroughly outplayed him in this last playoffs, which tells me that when the pressure is on Durant goes into beta mode. I can't remember another league MVP who wasn't even the best player on their team once the real season started.

No, he didn't. But I love how this has become a prevailing narrative for LeBron stans/KD haters. Outplayed him, sure, that's debatable. But now it's "thoroughly" outplayed Durant? No.

If LeBron was on OKC how many rings would they have by now?

All other scenarios the same? One, maybe two. He's still not getting past the Spurs this year, especially if Ibaka is out two games. Given how awful everyone but Durant and Westbrook were in the 2012 Finals, while seemingly every Heat player was on fire, means LeBron winning that ring is even debatable. He's still not getting past the Mavericks in 2011, either. And he sure as hell isn't getting through the West in 2013 if Westbrook is hurt. I think his best chance in OKC, if Durant is in Miami, is 2o12, but even that one is debatable.

Odds are, simply because LeBron is so great, he finds a way to win one, but let's not sit here and act like he'd have 3-5 rings already if he was playing in OKC. He's not getting a cakewalk to the Finals every year if that's the case and, instead, he's getting more physically worn down from playing grueling, tight 6-7 game series.

durant was already the best player in the NBA last year. 30/7/5 on .503/.391/.873. Tops in the league in Per, Usg%, offensive win share, win share, and even win share/48. Led the playoffs in points scored despite not even playing in the finals.

Haha yessssirrrr.

Durant is defending the best player in the world crown this upcoming season. Pretty sure he'll retain it.

You're not even a creative troll. If you're going to make an obvious alt account, and do nothing but troll, at least get more creative with the user name so it's not glaringly obvious what you're trying to do.

[Smook A.]

Not even the best player on his team

Ok now you're going overboard

Wouldn't it make much more sense if it was DURbeta?

Hahahah dude's an idiot.
