How far away is KD from catching Kobe?

[75 Others]

Context
KD Playing with a team with 3 perennial all stars one of whom is easily a top 5 shooter of all time and a two time MVP, another that is a former DPOY and another that has scored 35+ in a quarter, all in their primes with few derailing injuries.

So now Draymond is a perennial AS now

Didnt Kobe play with the DPOY in artest

Did Kobe not have the most dominant offensive player porbably of all time for his first three rings

While you discount KD and his numbers in the Finals you big up Kobe and his numbers against the Spurs in the fukking WCF

Kevin durant and kobe bryant comparison is a disgrace, the dude is a coward who took the easy way out to chase rings none of his rings and FMVP even equal one of kobes rings he had with shaq. Thats how much of a disgrace durant is and coward for joining a team that you choked 3-1 lead to.

Did Kobe not cry and demand a trade from the Lakers because that reality hit him about that struggle life 3 years minus Shaq

 

[I AM WARHOL]

BECAUSE MOST OF THE PPL HATING ON HIM
ARE BRON STANS.

THE BRON BRIGADE IS HUGE
ONLINE AND IN MEDIA.

KD SHUTTING HIS WINDOW
IS GONNA BURN THEM FOREVER.



​

That's really it.

 

[10bandz]

he's gonna catch bron before he catches kobe

 

[I AM WARHOL]

One thing I'll say about durant's situation that's unique is that even organically he was setup for a run like this until okc being cheap fukked it up (him, harden, westbrook).

Now he's manufactured his success

Time will take these rings out of contexts. Happened with lebron. It will happen with these warriors. Will just take a little longer. If he gets 5 rings they'll put him over Kobe.

What all time great not winning rings with the floor spacing of GS and Steph, Klay, and Draymond though

He is the floor spacing his damn self lol. Are we forgetting the annual 30 foot daggers in the finals he has made his signature?

All said and done KD has the chance to surpass LeBron as soon as next year with another ring and fmvp (3 rings, 3 finals mvps with a great finals record in comparison) and Kobe with another ring after that. And don't let him win another MVP next year too.

Stans about to be sick

That makes no sense. You're saying he's going to pass a top 5 all time player before he catches a borderline top 10 all time player? .

 

[Columbo]

KD has zero chance of ever catching Lebron or Kobe. 1 star thread

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Im a bulls fan and have Jordan as the GOAT. But if KD gets
6 rings
6 finals MVPs
The discussion should be open for GOAT. He is the best offensive player I have ever seen outside of Mike

I dont think its fair to criticize Golden State like:
'15 "everybody they played was hurt...asterisk "
then
'16 "they choked away a 3-1 lead front running chokers"

which are fair points, but then to say

"KD's rings dont count because he joined a juggernaut "

cant play both sides

Repped.

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Youre not entirely wrong, but youre missing the point in this thread.

As good as this GS team is, people WILL NOT be talking about KD in the all time GOAT career convo ever. This team won't be known as "KD's Warriors". Theyll just be remembered as that great Dubs team that came through and wrecked everyone with like 7 all stars. And i love KD as a player but reality is reality. The same people who still roast him to this day even after the rings are the same ones that will be telling his story in the media 15 years from now.

When ppl think of the warriors they just think of how ridiculous the team was as a whole. Circus act from KD to the end..

Bullshyt. Since you so good at predicting the future go buy some lottery tickets and invest in some IPO's.

Saying that a team won't get credit in the future because it was so much better than every other team for whatever reason is lunacy and biased prognosticating on your part.

Just like Bron

 

[sidenikkagawd]

He already surpassed him.

KD is in the same lane as the true alpha's like Bron and MJ who won all of their titles as the first option on their respective teams. c00nbe was a nice player but when teamed up with another all time great (Shaq) he was a complimentary piece on his championship teams.

Facts don't need narratives.
