More like the lengths lebron stans go to...breh you have three posts dissecting this shyt. You're obviously caught in your feelings.
As for "I can beat Lebron with my low handles if all I do is double dribble like Curry did."
No you can't. You can't do shyt. You couldn't beat Lebron James if he was blindfolded.

Quick question...Was kevin durant the key to the warriors record when they broke the regular season win record last year?

No, but that's apples-to-oranges. The Warriors didn't play the Cavaliers every game to broke the regular season record last year. Kevin Durant is the fulcrum behind the last 2 Finals games, which is what is germane and what I said. Without Kevin Durant the Warriors likely are evenly matched or lose to the Cavaliers. The impact a player like Kevin Durant has on a team can't be understated. Before Durant went to Golden State, he had a 13.8 NERD, which ranks his overall contribution pre-GS top 5:
The Oklahoma City Shakeup: Should We Have Seen the Breakouts Coming?
"
At number one, Durant has earned a 13.8 nERD. This player ranking -- which measures a player's overall contributions over the course of a season, based on efficiency -- means that, if he were on a league-average team, Durant would make that team an estimated 14 games above .500. How?"
So Durant himself has a Lebonesque effect on the teams he plays on, let alone on Golden State. So again Durant is the reason GS is winning by so much.

I was talking about their winning streak record in the Finals so far. You simply misunderstood my statement and didn't ask for clarification. I get it, you love Curry, but statistics say Durant had a Lebronesque effect on OKC and in general--stats say Durant wins 14 more games by himself on a .500 team--before he ever went to Golden State. Durant carries the same transformational talent to GS and that's why they're beating the Cavs so badly. Durant's cutting the Cavs up has nothing to do with Curry or Klay.

Did u even watch game 1 where the entire cavs defense would leave durant to go guard curry leaving him with multiple open lane dunka? Just stop. Both of them are elite

Durant was dominant in Game 1. With a different player those plays don't even happen. Plus I think Durant only dunked about 10 times yet he scored 38 points. That means almost half of his points didn't come from dunks (2x10= 20 points); they came from his shooting. There's no player but a superstar that can do that.
Either for the disingenuous sake of defending Curry, you are ignoring Durant's greatness. That's why Durant never should have went to Golden State. You Curry stans basically think he's the key to the team winning when he's not. Durant is. And when Durant wasn't there the player responsible for Golden State winning over the Cavs would likely be the PF stopping Lebron from driving, and still not Curry.
Durant sacrifices his own legend for the sake of a NBA champions' trophy made of tin not gold or iron, which is what he would get if he took his own team, rather than just taking on the dominant role on another team without getting any of the credit. One could say that Durant is selfless and basketball is war, but a man without ambition hardly seems a man at all.

Good to great players cheat and take the rules as far as they can go. Yeah, Curry doubled dribbled but he hid that shyt so well that it was pretty much invisible to the refs and he caught Lebron 
Lebron still played great defense and recovered beautifully.

But Lebron is better then Durant so what is wih the excuses

nah he didn't double dribble...maybe my eyes are slow but i've watched it 20 times, 1st First Take played it basically the whole episode and I still don't see it 
Seems to me what people are calling double dribble isn't really that, and it appears to be something that every player does.
If anyone can point out the exact few seconds...I'm all eyes.

Lebron is better than Durant individually but not when Durant has two elite 3 point shooters that can pull up from well behind the 3 point line, in addition to a rock-solid rim defender like Draymond that interrupts Lebron's drive. Lebron is having to face a 4 headed dragon in the Cavaliers and demigod that he is, even Heracles needed the Nemean lion's hide to fight the Hydra. The Nemean lion's hide gave Heracles that scant bit of help he needed to fight against the Hydra, which overmatched even his godly strength with all its heads. When the Hydra would bit Heracles' head she would find only the lion's magically thick hide. So the Hydra would have to bite the rest of Heracles' body and Heracles would crush the heads. Accordingly, Lebron needs another player so it's 2 vs. 4 rather than 4 vs. 1 .
So basically Lebron is better then Durant when Lebron hasn't better team mates
Lebron is better hen Durant when Durant has better team mates
That's what you're saying?
