Ive watched the vast majority of both since they entered the league. Durant's moderate advantage on jumpshots doesn't come close to offsetting the fact that Lebron is superior at everything else.
. If that was the case, then Mark Jackson and Jason Kidd are all time great scorers
At the bolded. None of that means Lebron is a better scorer
- PPG average is too varied. from Basketballreference.com, KD averages 27.1 ppg for a career. Lebron averages 27.2. Not much of a difference
- Lebron scoring 11,000 more points has more to do with him being drafted in 2003, Durant being drafted in 2007. That's a 4 year difference. KD's career isn't even close to over yet. Plus Lebron never had to share the ball with another star/superstar in his career aside from the 4 years he played with Wade. KD played with Harden and Westbrook, and now Steph Curry and Klay Thompson a bulk of his career up to this point
- Lebron averages a better fg%. Lebron drives the ball more and has more in the paint points. No surprise there. DeAndre Jordan has a high fg% as well
- Averaging more assists has nothing to do with being a better scorer
- Lebron scoring more points this season has already been discussed. He's focusing solely on offense this season and neglecting his defense. Which is obvious, cause all of his defensive stats this season are in the bottom 300
The point is if you get the ball through the hole, it’s scoring.. if you wanna argue that Durant is a better long range shooter sure, but what else? Durant should be a more natural scorer too, Lebron just Uses/abuses his body/strength to make things happen. Either way the ball is in the hole.At the bolded.

Was I wrong with what I said though?Every thread shytting on Bron you quick to call nikkas weird/cacs etc. When it's a thread shytting on others just to prop up Bron you all
Hypocrite
The Cavs are probably below .500 with kd in lebron’s place. He hasn’t shown that he has the leadership skills or b-ball iq to have been able to keep this time with all the adversity over .500. Lebron has been the point guard/part time coach on top of averaging 27 on 54% shooting.Topics been done to death, but no lies told here
Doesn't look as pretty to them. The Kobe stan logicIf a guy averages more points per game with a higher field goal percentage, how is he not a better scorer?
Let’s be civil here.
