You put KD on the same Knicks teams and don't change ANYTHING but KD and Melo I guarantee the Knicks would still be trash and the Thunder would still be a threat in the playoffs.

What makes you think KD breaks Lithgow from coaching failure in the playoffs? He had GP, Kemp....the list goes on and on
What the fukk does this have to do with KD being a better scorer than Melo over the course of their careers. You act like if they switch teams Melo will be a better scorer or something.
They would not be a threat in the playoffs Melo has never been better than KD in the PS any time of his career except for KD's first playoff series.
nikka I know you saw how the Thunder struggled with I out Ibaka, don't act like KD is the only reason that team was good in the playoffs.
The Thunder just a all around better team than the Knicks with better coaching and to deny that the Thunder would still be a great team is insulting

No shyt, how do you beat the Spurs without your 3rd option and defensive anchor? The Spurs can score AND defend, the the Thunder bench was already thin no way we can play at a respectable level without a 15ppg scorer.
The Thunder are not beating the Clippers with Melo, i doubt they beat the Grizzlies too. Melo once again is not a good playoff performer and has never been better than KD in that department.
I love how you ignore what KD just did in the RS without Westbrook too, Melo's best season doesn't even come close.
Bruh you make no sense. KD couldn't carry that team in the playoffs without Westbrook and he couldn't do it without Serge.
We are talking polayoffs right? KD could average 40 ppg in the playoffs the facts still stand he wouldn't take a team like the Knicks that far no matter how you cut it.
And you honestly think a team like the Thunder with Melo wouldn't even sniff the WCF? Come on breh... Be real

You don't think KD could drag that team to 40 wins? It isn't hard to make the playoffs in the East bruh.
They would not reach the WCFs, Melo would not have the 2 man game Durant has with Ibaka, Melo is a shytty playmaker. The Thunder don't need Melo and Westbrook averaging 46 shots per game on horrible efficiency.
Durant is a better team and man defender than Melo as well., which you forgetting.
Durant carried the Thunder to the best record in the West when Westbrook was out. That helped them secure the 2nd best record in the league last year.
I don't even know when this discussion turned into a team discussion when all i pointed out was that Durant has always been a better scorer than Melo. Even in Denver with A.I./ Billups Melo was never on KD's level.
Oh. When did you sign up? I haven't actually signed up yet.
According to the Coli, Melo he's an overrated fat chucker.
But this is the same "chucker" that had Lakers, Rockets & Bulls fans in their feelings when he resigned with the NYK
I just got my invite so a couple hours
