All-Time NBA Draft Round 1: Hack vs. Thee jazz fan

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Only stating that Durant has more seasoning and has earned the right to be called great. Durant was where Davis is now. Davis is talented yes but Durant is an MVP and earned the right to be called great.

Durant has learned how to win. Davis is still learning this

Plus with his elite guard skills and finishing skills and the fact that he can score from anywhere on the court. How would anyone stop him.

It's called shooting over the top and it's not like other stars haven't gotten over him before. Recall Malone shooting 15-15 or something crazy like that once. Bird has gotten over on him as well as big game James. Talks about it in the Pistons bad boys ESPN 30 for 30 show. So it's not like he's a for sure lock down defender every time.

When did I ever say no one has had a good game against Rodman? I'm just remarking at how silly it is to say no one would ever be able to stop Durant at the 4 like you claim and Rodman would be the most likely to do so. Even in this match up Davis is a guy who has the right combo of length and athleticism for the job. I don't think Davis would want to stay with Durant on the perimeter the whole game, so the team would have to adjust, but still.

I love Durant, and think he is great. But he's not unstoppable. I remember Lebron doing a fantastic job on him in the finals when it mattered.

Durant is a great shooter and scorer. But more of a shooter. His speed and lateral movement isn't great. It's good for his size. Durant will always get his, but there are guys that could slow him down.

He still averaged 30 in those finals if I recall

I know he did. I'm not saying Lebron shut him down. I just remember him having a problem taking over the game at the end.

I remember coming away from that series with a slight drop in my view of Durant. I picked them to win that. And when I saw Durant and Lebron go at each other, you could tell who was the greater player. Lebron made it difficult for him at the end of games.

If I recall he was the only one that showed up. Westbrook struggled and Harden was an absolute no show. Durant was trying to win it by himself that's what slowed down Durant only MJ could win by himself. The only reason Durant struggled was due to the overall team not playing up to par. Durant was a beast.

Ultimately the star gets blamed its one of those deals where the star gets too much credit for team success and too much blame when things don't go well. But this is neither here note there as u don't have LBJ. Not sure why we are talking about this.

Fact of the matter is my team is way more accomplished then your team and experience wins out usually 9-10 times. Think the Mavs vs LBJ's first year in Miami. My team out thinks out plays and makes less mistakes then Hacks team.

That's kind of a good point. I don't have Lebron .
