I think they both would have if you take out Durant looking back Durant defense was horrible. Discuss

If Lebron was on he Thunder, then yes they would've probably won because Lebron obviously wouldn't have been on the Heat.

Melo is a better argument.....but you also can't convince me Melo is a better defender than Durant, in any fashion.

When melo wants to he can play better defense he sometimes dont try as hard but with serge and Perkins and Westbrook he would have some leeway. Durant was getting killed by super Mario

Lol good point but I'm just saying if that lebron heat was replaced by a fake player like when you used to create a fake MJ like on the old 2k

i would have been a better series , put kobe on that team and instant sweep on the heat
Nah I don't think Kobe would have meshed well with that heat team it's a sharing the ball type team and Kobe does not do that well.

This actually made me think for a minute:patrice:


Lebron definitely. Hell with Westbrook and Harden it might've been a sweep....


Melo....POSSIBLY and this is coming from a Melo fan who thinks he doesn't get a fair shake when it comes to leading that New York team. He could win it with that squad but I'm wondering how the dynamics of that team would be altered. Durant doesn't have a problem deferring to Westbrook and playing off of him, Melo is ball dominant and I don't know if both of them could "shine" at the same time as Durant and Westbrook do...

Thunder/TSC
It wouldn't have mattered who was there if Harden is still doing nothing & Perk is still playing heavy minutes. OKC lost the finals because Brooks is a dumbass, Harden disappeared, KD being in foul trouble almost every game, & the Heat just having a better strategy & the best player in the world.

I think melo could have won with that team also lebron would have gotten harden to get his shot going by feeding him to start the game which he does with d wade and bosh .....that team would be stacked .....shoot the more I think about it any team with a good 2nd player and some defense with lebron (chi-thunder-last years lakers) would be a monster with lebron but with melo you need players that don't mind not getting to many shots but almost all defense and good to great shooters around him ( golden state -grizzlies )

Melo always takes it to LeBron whenever they play. Head to head, Melo/Bron are 10-7.

I won't say an Melo-led OKC would win against the Heat. They'd win more than 1 game though.

I think that team lost because they had no post players all that was done was KD running around screens and Westbrook trying to go into the paint they tried to hide KD on Mario and that backfired
