Kevin Durant is better then Kobe ever was true or false?

[Poitier]

Not the nikka you want to depend on to handle the ball unless his team is fully loaded and we don't acknowledge lockout years over here


% of KD's offense that was assisted by year:
08 - 59 %
09 - 57 %
10 - 52 %
11 - 62 %
12 - 48 %
13 - 52 %
14 - 47 %
15 - 55 %
16 - 55 %
17 - 62 %
18 - 57 %


KD is a hell of an off ball player (which inflates efficiency) and GOOD not GREAT ISO player. For comparison, Kobe was in the 35-45 % range in terms of assisted offense.
But you new nikkas must be on angel dust if you think this is close when talking offensive anchors


Don't bring up defense when most of yall were shytting on his D in @Malta DPOY thread

THATS FUNNY BECAUSE KOBE SHOOTS WAYYYY BETTER OUTSIDE OF 3 FEET THAN YOUR HERO LEBRON

He shot way more often from outside of 3 feet, which is why LeBron is so much better.

Lack of scoring versatility isn't a good thing, casual, i.e. Spurs defensive strategy on Lebron in the finals

Casual still doesn't realize the Spurs lost that series.

Imagine thinking the Spurs lost to a guy they beatdown twice because you're a delusional weirdo

Durant is arguably the greatest pure scorer in NBA history.. I'm not decided whether its he or Mcgrady. He's a great defender.

Alot of people speak about Kobe vs this person or Kobe vs that person, but actually Durant is a better player then Kobe ever was, plus he has never been a ball hog

Is it a true statement to say that as a player, Durant is better then Kobe?

Who would you rather have on your team...28 year old Durant or 28 year old Kobe?

What the fukk does this even mean smh

What the fukk does this even mean smh

I'm not sure, but it definitely means he's better than Kobe

31ppg, 6 reboundz, 1 steal, 1 block, 55% fg, 39% from 3 is locking someone up now?

Servant was not the reason they lost. Google ended the age of

Russ terrible 3 point shooting and Harden shyttin the bed was why they lost

Beat me to it. That narrative about Durant being scared of Lebron and why he left was hilarious to me. A nikka avg more points, more rebounds and better shooting against you than he normally does agaisnt everyone else is in no way shape or form you putting the clamps on him. Especially if youre seen as the premier defender in the league at the time. Wouldnt have happened to Kawhi

right now Kobe, but when it's said and done KD might top him

Durant also was Bussin Lebron ass in 2012 imma let you cook tho

How and he he lost the fukk'n finals and could not galvanize Mr t and mr selfish look.

You nikkaz be talking but for Durant in mythos to be better than Kobe and lebron. Durant would have had to beat lebron the year he swept Kobe the fukk up outta there.

Also all this Durant went to Gs as a slight to his Kobe comparison is short sighted. As Kobe held the hornets hostage and did some bullshyt to go to Lakers too.
Y'all motherfukkers be having selective ass memory and shyt.

Not to mention Durant won the rookie of the year at kobe's position way before Kobe ramped, In comparison.
So, if we talking the full story, and mythos in timeline form. Durant is completely comparable to Kobe by timeline but falls short of the ring count argument. Yet as far as a skill player Durant and Kobe could be compared and it would lean toward Durant possibly surpassing kobe's mythos.
if his ring count and how titles are accumulated are within comparable striking distance to kobe's ring count based mythos.

2012 Kd had a legit shot at going down as the goat. 2018 meh. He the best now but he ain't no Kobe.

You have a selective memory like most Kobe stans.
Kobe specifically held the hornets hostage and then was moved to la for divac.
Told the hornets he was going back to Italy if he was not traded.
