That same celtics team suffered their worst home playoff loss in history in game 3 at the hands of the Cavs. Something happened after game 3 and LeBron never played with the same intensity or urgency.

Cleveland also scored 124 points.and shot 60% that game. all five cleveland starters scored in double digits and west had 14 off the bench.

if the cavs role players had more consistent performances like that they prolly would've won the series :manny:

that cavs team relied way too much on lebron having monstrous numbers just to win and he didn't have another star player that thrived when he struggled.

But why SHOULD people criticsize him is what I'm asking. Bron deserved all the criticsm. Dude straight quit in Boston series and lost in the second round as the MVP. The next year he went GHOST in the finals. He deserved all of it.

There isn't one point in KD's playoff career where you can say his team underachieved when fully healthy.

dude's second option was Mo Williams. If you expect LeBron to Beat Pierce, KG, Ray Allen, and a healthy Rondo with Tony Allen, Perkins etc. with just Mo Wiliams, how come we can't expect Durant to beat the damn Spurs with Westbrook as his second option?


In the Heat's first year, nobody even expected them to get to the Finals.

The media is not going to flip on KD...they spent the last 3 years trying to make him Lebrons rival...you think they just going to throw that all away...then they got to find Lebron a new rival...and spend years building that person up...

And LOL at "can't bounce back"...breh Durant is not bouncing back from anything...because he is being carried to everything...the league WAS NOT giving Bron an MVP this year no matter what...shyt they started talking Blake Griffin deserving it over Lebron...and remember...KD needed the league to suspend Z-Bo to guarantee a win against the grizzlies ...they needed the refs to make 3 of the worse calls down the stretch of game 5 I seen in years to get past the clippers...now all of a sudden KD is supposed to stand on his own against a far superior team to both of those...

He will get his shots in game 3 and 4...I would be willing to bet all my coli cash that he either outright sets the record for most free throws attempted over 2 playoff games...or gets to top 3 in that all time...but as far as KD himself actually manning up and playing better...nah that is not going to happen...

Bounce back...man don't even...dude is damn near 7 foot and couldn't back down Chris Paul...fukk outta here :camby:

MVP of the league...and you letting CP0 push you around the paint on defense...:aicmon:

At the top.
If he gets swept it's gonna get ugly. Ibaka being out is an issue but he can't be dropping duds like game 2.

He played well...but I hope you can when you are fresh off the refs giving you a game...

How well is he playing now...with the refs so far not just sending him to the line every 5 seconds?

LOL at this argument...so to find that Kevin Durant good game...we not going to look at what happened in the last game he played...and then the game before that...yeah scratch that one to...we gonna go back to the game BEFORE that...to find that MVP performance by the mvp?

What exactly does KD deserve criticism for? His team is the 2 seed and they're in the WCF playing arguably the best team in the L without Serge. Somebody explain this shyt to me.

MVP is a regular season award so stop referencing when discussing post season. The bold is all speculation from your perspective. Your original post was about him not being able to back down Chris Paul and thus I ask about KD's performance in game 6(close out) of that particular series. You are simply moving the goal post by bringing up KD's performance in this Spurs series to combat my response. Nothing to see here, carry on
