Durant...Can he hold down a team Like Kobe,Lebron,Iverson as the only Option?

[ajnapoleon]

Something is missing from him I am not sure what it is


I seen others do it but for some reason it does not seem like he can do it without a 2nd option maybe a over reaction.

 

[GzUp]

Russ has always been the leader of okc between the two of them.

It's only two games but that killer instinct, leave it all on the floor type day in day out mentality doesn't seem to be part of his game. I think he got too comfortable having Westbrook sharing the load. It's much harder carrying a team on your own when the defense is only focused on stopping you. A lot of players aren't built for it these days. Not like Iverson or Kobe or even Carmelo. Durant has the skills to be the only option though.

 

[Bone$]

Not built like that...




Edit. Wait get kobe name the fukk outta here

 

[Scientific Playa]

we'll see, he let his boy get away...

Nah Kobe has it what ever the term is he may chuck but he is a Alpha dog....Like Iverson in philly...Bron in Cleveland...Vince in T-Dot.

I mean...i guess it depends what you mean by "hold it down"...he's gonna beast and do all he can realistically do...he put up like 32pt 10rb 6ast a game last year in the playoffs after Russy went down...but they're not gonna be an elite powerhouse team or anything because that's a huge hole missing from the squad...okc without westbrook isn't an elite defensive team built around a singular dominant offensive player like bron's cavs or ai's sixers were...people always say stuff like "AI took a bunch of bums to the finals, he had absolutely no help"...like defense ain't at least half the game and that team wasn't amongst the best in the league defensively...the way okc is built, they NEED another dominant offensive player like russy

This is what I mean he always had someone to lean on good FO but now its just him even if Ibaka is there....I can not really name the term.

True on that point there really is no defense there like the teams I said...

 

[Surreal]

Dirk has done it longer than any of these guys you mention
