If you were starting an NBA team, who would you rather build around - Durant or Bron?

[Loose]

The only comparison that could be made is on the offensive side, and even that is a stretch.

Bron is a better passer, rebounder, blocker, steaks more, and defends better.

I got love for that boy KD, but if LeBron played the way KD did towards the last two games, the internet and ESPN would have collapsed within like some sort of black hole of a$$holes.

he did but worst in 07 and 11

How in the hell can anyone say KD?

while I think that Lebron is the superior player I would pick KD. what some are failing to look at is that KD's effect on the win column being less would allow his team to potentially acquire better talent through the draft.

Harder choice than I thought, but when you add in defense, how can you sleep on Bron.

I'd go with the guy who has gooder skin...


he'd prolly be more able to clear the lane.

[ThugLife]

Just like he did during the regular season?

 

[kbtwofour]

LeBron is the better all around player and the best player in the league.

Are we talking about the long run or 4-5 year run?

That would make a difference to me. I would take Durant in the long run because he is younger than Bron and still has not reached his prime.

 

[Absolut]

whats the long run? bron is only 28, and still might not have reached his prime yet. bron is EASILY the choice

 

[Ronnie Lott]

I'm still waiting for someone to explain in detail legitimate reason why they would pick KD over Bron. I don't get it

Durant is more refined than Lebron was at his age. Lebron is better than he's ever been, he's in his prime, the player he is now is miles ahead of his Cleveland days..........yet Durant, who's 4-5 years younger is maybe a step or two behind him. That's pretty good. It shows when you their first Finals/Playoffs runs.

25ppg (41%fg), 8rebs, 8ast (22 yo Lebron, 2007 Playoffs)
28ppg (51%fg), 8rebs, 4ast (23 yo Durant, 2012 Playoffs)
22ppg (35%fg), 7rebs, 7ast (22 yo Lebron, 2007 Finals)
30ppg (55%fg), 6rebs, 2ast (23 yo Durant, 2012 Finals)

You could make an argument for Durant
