I need to hear the explanation for someone putting KD over Bron, just doesn’t make any sense to me

Cuz he's better to me? Lol

It doesn't make sense cuz you don't want it make sense lol.

LeBron playing in a garbage conference on a team devoid of talent is why his numbers look that way. Obviously his talent is enormous but his contemporaries are playing with good to great players. They don't dominate the ball nearly as much. Their numbers will not look as crazy.

KD is a better offensive player and better defensively, and he doesn't need to suffocate the game of those around him to dominate. He doesn't need to be the system. Just give him his touches and he's gonna either score or make plays for others. He's the complete and total package on both ends of the court. Why y'all stay faking on dude cuz you don't like him?

Being the heart, lungs and kidneys of a team's entire existence and them depending on you like you are oxygen itself is cool and creates fun narratives, but there's value in being able to be great without others needing to become less.

KD wasn't wrong for saying that it's impressive to stand out when playing with other great players. Y'all just didn't wanna hear it :manny:

KD has outplayed him in two consecutive finals series...KD is a far better defensive player at this point in their careers... KD'S offensive playstyle is IMO more conducive to winning basketball than bron's...KD is able to be inserted into a team like the dubbs and more or less still add his full value to the team without crippling the effectiveness of the other dynamic players on the team...there are sporadic rumblings of KD isos messing up the warriors flow, but that pales in comparison to Bosh or love being reduced to shadows of their former selves... draymond for example would be next to useless playing with LeBron...

Nice to see AD getting respect. I probably put Curry at 3 out of respect of him dusting us two playoff series in a row. AD still the best big man and if I see another bullshyt "KAT is a more efficient AD" comparison after his sorry playoff performance. I'm putting them on blast.

i guess playing style counts for nothing :mjgrin:

they play the game different...both are effective.....

lebron doesnt have the jumper that durant does.....those its better than it used to be....so he goes to the goal....

lebron can play defense...he doesnt anymore because of his load.....

and i disagree that his style isnt conducive to winning....his teams have won plenty
