Pretty much any elite perimeter player would've destroyed that time of coverage. And that's why you just can't judge players numbers against teams without putting it into context because not all players are defended the same.

For example, KD Faced the same spurs team last year and he was never given wide open midrange and 3 point jump shots like Lebron was this year because he would've averaged 40 and Pop Knows that

This is true but it works both ways. If teams pick up Bron at half court like they do Melo and KD, Bron could have 8-10 layups/dunks and 10-12 free throw attempts per game based on his ability to blow by people and finish at the rim. :manny:
