If there were anything worthy of a comparison to KD’ s Move, that would be if LeBron were to join the Boston Celtics after losing to them in 2010, what KD did is the WEAKEST move by far in NBA history

As a Dubs fan, 4 years later, this is still so true. NBA was competitive before this move. Sure LeBron left the disgrace of an organization in the Cavs to form a squad in Miami, but let's not act like those years weren't competitive. Last time I checked, the 2011 Mavs swept Kobe, beat KD in 5, and then Bron in 6. And didn't the Spurs dynasty go toe to toe with the Heat for 2 straight years? With KD, there was none of that. There was no suspense about who was going to win. I legit stopped watching the games because it was boring. It's like watching a movie but already knowing what's coming. Waste of time.

@hotox23-56
@hotox23-56 3 года назад
@Malik Kai i hate this narrative that kd is more offensively talented than lebron as if its by some huge margin. Lebron and kd average the same points career wise and basically the same field goal percentage (if you want to get cheeky with it lebron averages just a little more points and has a small advantage in fg percentage). Kevin durant is a good scorer and above average defender but thats it. They both get roughly the same amount of rebounds. Your judging KD with the best shooter of all time which provides endless spacing and takes so much pressure off you to score when you have 2 deadly shooters next to you. You can even see just how much the team dropped off when steph curry was injured. Meanwhile if KD is injured they still remain a 73 win team without him. Lebron on the other hand left the cavs and they became completely irrelevant, he bought the heat 2 chips (where they werent championship bound before he showed up unlike kds warriors) and automatically makes you a title contender just by being there. Passing is an underrated skill, its arguably more important than defense in this day and age (a lot of people can pick up on defense, fewer can pick up on passing). So lebron brings elite passing iq a reliable scorer and a leader and KD brings offense (which weve seen that by itself is never enough think kyrie irving) and above average defense and arguably a locker room disruptor. I know who my moneys on

Lebron going to Miami isn't even close to kd going to golden state. If Lebron went to Boston in 2010, it'd still be better than kd going to the warriors, cuz the warriors went 73-9.

These are the best conclusions I may come to. Even though it was in 2016, I do agree it was a subordinate move of Durant (at first). He never want to be the face of Oklahoma nor bearing the accountability. Most of this because he was the best shooter in the Thunder team after Harden was traded for Lamb. Durant wants to protect his zeal for hoops by any means necessary.
