    • @josueguillen4111
      @josueguillen4111 4 года назад +22

      He ain’t wrong though. The reason why it was so weak is cause SAS knows how good KD is and found the super team unnecessary. He needed to get away from Westbrook, but any other place would’ve been more of a power move than KD

    • @harikrishnan204

      The debate should be LeBron vs Steph Curry....I never see Lespn including steph curry in literally any of their arguments. The disrespect is unreal. I don't see any kevin Durant vs Lebron james rivalry. Last I remember was KD got a free ride to the finals with the all time great team that steph curry created.
      STEPH CURRY VS LEBRON JAMES WAS AND IS THE ONLY REAL RIVALRY
      KEVIN DURANT PLAYED WELL IN THE FINALS DOESN'T MEAN HE ALL OF A SUDDEN BECOMES COMPETENT TO LEBRON.
      ONLY PURE SKILL WISE DURANT IS BETTER THAN CURRY AND LEBRON.
      THE RIVALRY IS STEPH VS LEBRON
      Y'ALL BETTER PUT SOME RESPECT IN HIS NAME

      Took KD and Russ out first for a chip. Then took out golden state for his 3rd. A 73 win team. Destroying teams like a video game. Down 1-3..... and somehow, someway, made it happen. Today...... somehow away and cut off from family and the rest of the world about to do it again. Wow...... absolutely amazing. Legendary status. Demar DeRozan said that's who they worried about. No one else. Players are telling you. They play against him. They would know.

    I usually side with you, Stephen A Smith, but you went a little too far with this one.
    Correct, KD is one of the most top (offense) heavy specialists we've ever witnessed, and he might end as the greatest in that category. This includes Stephen Curry.
    BUT, he is NOT as well balanced as Lebron James. Not to mention he doesn't have the accolades or accomplishments.
    NO ONE has done what Lebron IS currently doing. This doesn't top MJ or any of the greats, as it should never!
    What it actually does is ESTABLISH Lebron's own legacy. Give him his own legacy so we can put the debate to rest.
    The comparisons always miss the mark.

      In offensive skill, KD has a slight edge. He is better all around fundamentally speaking. LeBrons edge comes from his physical characteristics. Mentally, ill give the edge to KD. LeBron at times backs down from the biggest moments. Example is against the Mavericks in 2011. KD is a killer and Lebron is not.

      Carl Andrews Debatable. As great as MJ was on all levels on the floor, he wasn’t even in the league of KD when it comes to 3 point shooting. Then on top of that, add in the fact that KD is 7’0 and shoots the mid range just as good as MJ did (look at the numbers). Then on top of that, add in the fact that even though his game doesn’t depend on athleticism, he can drive to the basket and get a dunk or layup anytime he wants to over anyone he wants to with very few exceptions. In my opinion, KD is the greatest scorer of all time just because of the way he can put the ball on the floor and in the basket as good as ANYONE who ever lived, and he’s 7’0 and athletic.
