this really isnt true and its odd you would note this here when kobe wasnt even the best player on 3 of his title teams

not even trying to hate. thats just a strange statement

Durant is too passive imo on the offensive end...

Its not about being the "best"player as it is being assertive when you need too...

Can you tell me when (at what time during the game) he needs to be more assertive?

I'm going with prime Kobe mainly for his tough shot ability. We'll see a lot more out of KD to start this season and how he handles being the sole scoring option surrounded by nothing. I just have always loved Kobe's aggressiveness and is mindset of always attacking. Plus if he got hot he'd drop 50 on you hitting fadeaways over double teams.

Kobe avgd 35 a game in 04-05

i think any non jackass would correctly assume durant could avg 35+ if he played 40+ mins a game with kwame brown chris mihm chucky atkins and Laron profit logging major mins... likely with better efficiency

When he sees Westbrook trying to play "hero ball"..

I love Russ game but I really thinks he tries to put the team on his back because he feels he has to...

Which shouldnt happen when you have A Kevin Durant there.....

I think KD needs a post up game as well...

Because they are too perimeter orientated

KD has scored more points in the 'clutch' than any other player over the last 2-3 seasons. How much more assertive does he need to be?
