He is still a great offensive player, but he is no longer a complete player, and that is why I say Durant is better. It wouldn't matter if he was playing in OKC, GS, or Orlando. He is just a better all around player in 2017 than Lebron, I actually think I would rather have Durant and Kawhi over Lebron.
Agreed, I'd go with Durant over LBJ. OKC was one game away from last year's Finals, a missed crotch kick. Perfect piece defensively as well as the goalie. He's altered so many shots down there as well. Klay on the perimeter, and Durant at the cup. So much for parity in the NBA for at least the next 2-3 years......Adam Silver might as well just print Golden State on the next few Larry O'Briens.
