Kevin Durant is everything LeBron James wanted to be

BlackxChild · June 2012

Anytime dwade has done anything it was bc lebron was assisting him and had the pressure on him. What lebron does in the 1st 3 qtrs allows dwade to play like he does... Funny thing is I was one of the few that was saying eveyone was overhyping bron with the cavs.

that has nothin to do with the point he was tryna make

He said lebron never makes that shot

No my point wasnt on some whole 'clutch gene' angle, it was on a TALENT basis

Lebron is achingly flawed. In the last 2 games he had 1) Rondo on him - not just that last posession either 2) On 1 late game possesion he got Ray Allen on a switch, but rather than abuse Ray's old ass he IMMEDIATELY kicked the ball back out.

I dont kno wtf it is: Bball IQ, nervousness, lack of confidence in his post game, etc

But somehting is wrong. He reminds me of the nice guy at the court who, although he's playin with far inferior talent, wants to work on his game so he plays team ball when he could score every basket if he wanted. Yall lookin ta him to just get buckets meanwhile he tryin to get the chubby kid a open look LOL Those that hoop know what im talkin about

I agree he do get shook in crunch situations but so does derrick rose(nobody ever mentions it cuz he's everyone favorite player),so did scottie pippen,chris webber

Everyone cant be reggie,jordan,horry when the games on the line

Dont be like these other impressionable geeks who let skip bayless skew their thinkin and ONLY analyze what lebron does in the last 40 seconds and ignore the impact he has the other 47 mins

When was DRose EVER scared of the moment havent seen those games yet?

Durant wants the ball in the clutch lebron passes the ball in the clutch

ill take Durant!

Lets see Lebron took Eric Snow and Drew Gooden to the finals, KD has Westbrook, Harden, and Ibaka. You niggas kill me with that shit, Lebron squeezed the juice and capability out of a talentless Cleveland team meanwhile Durant is playing with a loaded team. The Heat is the first real team Lebron has been with, the story is not written yet.

What Lebron did in the ECF against a defense like the Pistons to get to the finals, what KD is doing. The man scored 23 straight points, didn't have no Harden knocking down threes, he carried a sorry ass team to the finals.

Rose chokes in late game situations and has been doin it since college who cares if he's scared to take the shot

At least he hit 3 gw shots this year to give him some type of credibility but his track record aint good in late game situations

Yes, Spurs were in their prime then and they weren't gonna let one nigga beat them. The second highest scorer on that Cavs team was Boobie Gibson who was a rookie at the time.

Its only one person in NBA history that I can literally say they didnt have any help in the NBA finals & had the worst team to ever be in it & its Allen Iverson.

i never understood that. niggas aint out here scoring 100 ppg. no superstar has reached the finals w/o any help. if their supporting cast were THAT bad they probably wont even sniff the playoffs, let alone the finals

Feeling being caught in dis muhfugga

allday1992 · June 2012

Why do niggas always say the cavs was trash

It was a team built around Lebron and they did what they had to do and they got to the finals

Hell boobie had 30 in game 6 of the conf finals

greenwood1921 · June 2012

Durant is better than Lebron ONLY this year and that's where it stops. If they retired today, Lebron would be ahead of Durant on most people's list.

Also, NONE of them deserved to be mentioned with GOAT level players like Kobe and Jordan. Durant just got good this year and Lebron has no rings and no clutch.

really?

Yes. He improved his handle tremendously, he's a much better defender then he was last year, and he's trying to get his teammates involved. In other words, he just became a consensus top 5 player in the league this year. Last year I would argue that Melo and Wade were better than him. This year, not so much.

Also, I was comparing him to the GOATs Kobe and Jordan when I said that. Keep it in context bruh.

LeBron had players that fit him to a tee in Cleveland.

Winning 60+ games multiple times doesn't equal no team

They molded that team to LeBron style and were too busy dancing away and celebrating to focus on winning a ship.

hALF_pAST_7EVEN · June 2012

So..........

aneed123 · June 2012

man Bron had Ira Newble and Eric Snow in the same starting line up.... dont u try and boost them up

ericb4prez · June 2012

why do niggaz try to play eric snow like he wasnt a battle tested vet like d fish

unspoken_respect · June 2012

I do think on the pr side he wants to be like Durant. The player that everyone loves right now. What he used to be. I also think he wishes the Cavs would have become an elite team like the Thunder have. That's just how it works sometimes. If Oden wasn't an injury threat who knows? Maybe he would drafted by the Sonics. Maybe Durant and the Blazers become an elite team anyway. You just never know how teams develop.

I also think there should be a 4 ring minimum to be compared to Jordan.

yunn~sancob!m!t · June 2012

If Durant left the Thunder I really think they would not be as bad as The Cavs are right now ,just saying
