I need to take a walk. Thread has my chest tight.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

durant is a much better scorer than kobe was

 

[Absolut]

Ur strictly going by stats there's more that factors into that

so explain to me how the "better scorer" scores less points on more shots?

 

[feelosofer]

These are two different players with different roles on their respective teams. I want to see how the season ends before saying Durant is better than Kobe. It's too early, let's compare the 2 at 23 and let's see where Durant is at 25. I will say this Durant definitely belongs in the convo, I think Durant is one of the most efficient 3 guards of all time and I think the type of game Durant plays will age very well. He has incredible range but he is also sneaky powerful, he can cut to the inside and finish with a lot of ferocity. He gets 8 rebounds a game, I think he can get more but that's not really his role within the framework of the team. But yea the thing that KD definitely has over Kobe is efficiency. But Kobe is the better defender. I think in terms of 3 pt shooting they are close to even and even then I give Kobe a slight edge, that could change. Like I said back in that other site, Durant's upside is scary as hell. I wanna see what KD can do in true beast mode because game 1 was just a taste.

Durant came to a team where he was the man from jump so of course he has the higher career avg it doesnt mean hes the better scorer durant never even averaged 30 points a season ill give u durants shot selection though but don't make it seem like kobes not effecient

 

[Absolut]

"being the main man" yet kobe took more shots than durant does now, when kobe was playing with shaq. fukk outta here. durant averaged 30, on 20 shots per game. kobe cracked 30 on 27, 23½ and 23 shots.

As great as KD is, let's not pretend like he ain't playing with the 2nd or 3rd best PG in Westbrook, 6th Man of the Year Harden, and Ibaka, who finished 2nd in DPOTY voting. As great as Durant has been, we need to stop saying like he is carrying shyt as a number 1 option, like he doesn't have a great team and other players than can takeover the game for Durant at any point in a game. But, anyways, its too soon to even compare KD and Kobe's career at this point. We can just dismiss KD and say Kobe already had 3 rings by the time Durant was 23, and shyt like that. But, both are still great players, but it seems like Kobe's torch has been taken by Durant, and Durant is just on another level right now by the way he has been performing in this years playoffs.

so kobe aint play with Shaq
kobe wasnt the best player on his team
Durant is

yea, but ain't Durant playing with Who wants to be and plays like he is the best player on the court, and is a top 15 player in the game. As great as Shaq was, who was the best player on the Laker squad, the Lakers didn't become a championship team until Kobe finally started hitting his strides and became an elite player was when the Lakers finally got over the hump and won those 3 rings. Yea Durant is the best player on the team, but lets not pretend like he is carrying the team and is solely responsible for his squad being great, when he isn't. The dude was set up for success, but you can't blame him because he is a hella dope player. But, anyways, let's not get ahead of ourselves, shyt the Thunder might just drop 4 games in a row against the Heat, which probably ain't gonna happen, but but who knows yo.

so efficiency is all that matters? huh? that's the only deciding factor on if a player is better

Okay...

Charles Barkley > Kevin Durant

28.3ppg (on 16 shots, 59% FG), 12rebs, 3.2ast, 1.3stl, 1.3blk (Age 24)
28ppg (on 20 shots, 50% FG), 8rebs, 3.5ast, 1.3stl, 1.2blk (Age 23)

Your response will something along the lines of...........but but that's different

 

[YBE]

How can someone imply that they'd rather have volume scoring over efficient scoring?



That's not even a knock on Kobe at all. I don't have all the charts and graphs in front of me. Bottom line, I want a guy scoring 36 on 20 shots more than a guy scoring 36 on 28 shots.

You know.......that includes Jordan too. Right?

These idiots can't follow the argument. It's not about efficiency vs. inefficiency. It's who is more efficient.
