Max Kellerman: Lebron is a better offensive player than Kevin Durant

[Professor Emeritus]

You and Trump cac Prof really got into this really thinking I cared about arguing some numbers and "facts".

At least the haters say they don't care about facts.

All you care about is hoping to lose before you get to the Finals so you don't mess up your Finals record.

My bad! I worded that wrong when it came to that Heat team. Although Chalmers had his best 3 point percentage years from 2010 to 2014 shooting between 38 to 40 percent. They also had Allen, Battier, Miller, and Jones getting decent minutes. All those guys got great looks off Bron, Wade and Bosh betting in the game simultaneously. The first year Heat team struggled early on without consistent shooters in the lineup. The Cavs team that featured Dion Waiters struggled because he could not stretch the floor for Bron. Boobie and Sasha were really good three point shooters man. If you look up their percentages, you would see those guys were shooting 38 to 40 perecent from three. Lebron will thrive with players like all the time because it opens up his game.

Chalmers shot 32% from three the year before LeBron got to Miami, and shot 29%, 31%, and 28% in the three years since LeBron left.
Sasha shot 27% from three the year before he came to Cleveland and was a 30% three-point shooter when he left Cleveland, out of the NBA by 29
Boobie's 3pt% dropped to 34% and he was out of the NBA by 26 after LeBron left Cleveland.

All of those guys were crap players who only looked good because LeBron got them perfect looks all the time.

Ray/Battier/Miller/Jones were a great set of shooters, but they weren't available a lot. Miller was hurt all the time, Ray was only there in 13/14, Battier came in '12 and was washed by '14, and Jones only played limited minutes. The Heat only played with 1-2 of them on the floor at any point.

You know that team numbers and individual numbers are a thing too right?

No... What you fail to understand is that I don't care at all about any of this shyt. I simply enjoy watching the game. I don't get paid enough to go to NBAreference.com and post these nikkas stats. I just like watching KD wing and LeBron lose.



I think I find more pleasure in watching LeBron lose becuz I like to come in here and see why it wasn't his fault.

What makes KDs shot better is that it was over LeBron. What makes it even better is LeBron clearly wanted no smoke the next season.

Durants a better pure scorer when he's hot, LeBron is better at everything else inciuding being able to score when he's jumper isn't falling.

Durant also being massively overrated because he plays with Steph, Dray and Klay.

Facts

Nah... Those are LeBron numbers g.

Lebron so good, nikkas don't even factor in his teammates.

It won't work, this is the social media generation. If a Game 3 shot in a series you're already dominating is bigger than a clutch play in the final minutes of a Game 7, you might as well be watching WWE. They know nothing about basketball.

Talk about Durant winning when he was 4-17 lifetime against LeBron and had won ONE Finals game in his entire career before he joined a team that had already won a chip without him.

Gill-Scoot Heroine just negged me again.

I've had that child on ignore for a YEAR now and he's negged me 14-15 times since then even though I don't even speak to him.

The emotions.

Did he even comment on this thread? I can't even tell if he's negging me just because I said someone is better than a Warrior or if he's just still emotional about how I kept owning him so regularly that I ended up having to place him on ignore cause his arguments weren't even worth my time anymore.

I wonder if he knows that I get 1-2 reps every time he negs me just to cancel out any effect from the butthurt contingent.

 

[Guess Who]

What makes KDs shot better is that it was over LeBron. What makes it even better is LeBron clearly wanted no smoke the next season.

U could say that Lebron’s block on Curry was even more meaningful vs the unanimous back to back MVP playing on a 73 win team that was up 3-1 in the finals. Curry was DONE after that play. Confidence left his body.

The Suns sorry. LeBron on the Lakers and the Warriors gone 3 peat on yo ass.

You're an NBA season away from suicide.

My day to day life is generally great, while you admit that the prospect of trolling NBA fans on the internet is your strongest reason for getting out of bed in the morning.

I just watched my Suns scrimmage up close in person this morning :umadbook: Squad looks good. Who's your team again? Dont answer that, no one cares

im not even going to read this thread i know its foolishness

is lebron's game as pretty as kd's?

Easily. KD cant do the things Bron does on the court.
