will kd get the same hate as lebron did/does after he teams up with kyrie and love in LA?
 
yall not hearing this man.


And Bron teamed up with two arguable Top 5-10 players at the time. 20 is conservative. Top 20 for Bosh/Wade me be like now if anything.
I dont get it though because KD HAD a top 5 PG and a top 5 SG and a top 3 PF...didnt have to go anywhere to do it, it was in his stable, and he didnt win. That team was better imo
 
*yawn*

There are some good games coming on today

Warriors vs Pacers
Rockets vs Heat
Clippers vs Suns

I'm taking Pacers, Heat and Clippers.

over 50% is still astounding not to mention he's throwing in 3-4 more points per game and more assist and rebounds... This is the first time all year that Lebron has played at ths Ridiculous level and that's not a knock on him but more praise for KD being able to sustain that level of play all year.
Never said it wasn't, as KD is a hell of a player(and really turned up this year). I was just showing that LBJ has had a better February than KD to those who were arguing the opposite. Let's see how both do in March, as it seems the race is on.

Your time-machine settings are off fam. Westbrook just became a top 5 point this year. Harden just became a top 5 SG this year (for the Rockets might I add, not OKC), and Ibaka is not a top 3 PF in any year. :lol

nah, you can agree that KD is a hell of a player, but where you're going wrong is saying Lebron has had a better February based on a shooting percentage. no objective basketball fan is gonna let you slide that statement into the conversation on the low
 
I totally agree....and if thats your argument, why is it okay to say that KD is starting to take over LBJ 'Crown', shouldnt that be a problem as well since, you know, KD hasnt won anything regardless of age? I feel like its unfair to both

and until he does he isn't the best player in the L.... However he's the MVP FOR THIS SEASON BASED ON PLAY.

I didn't have a problem with Bron winning those MVP's over Kobe because he was having a better season... i never at any of those points however would have taken LBJ over Kobe if i needed a big game win because he hadn't proved it yet.

Same way i wouldn't take KD over LBJ right now because although KD has played better in the regular season Lebron has went to the finals and dominated at this point.
 
time for dwight to shine 

even though bosh dominated dwight back in his raptors days
 
teams with good defensive bigs (dwight hibbert) tend to do well vs lebron teams so tonights matchup should be interesting

is dwade playing?
 
How this year when he was hurt? Westbrook avg his career high in points the year they went to the Finals, 24 a game. 

Harden shot 50% that season, 17, 4 and 4 off the bench.

Ibaka was only avg 4 points less than he is now...9 pts instead of 13. 

Those arent bums at all


I meant as in coming off last season they came into this year labeling him top 5. Wasnt any time before that, period. Harden can't be a top 5 SG off the bench. and yes, you further expanded upon my statement that Ibaka has never been a top 3 PF ever.

I didnt say any of those guys were bums, just refuting you trying to label KD with 3 top 5 players on his team in the finals. You're trying to say the Thunder had a total of 4 top 5 guys at their position that year which is just ridiculous. You're painting a picture of the best team ever :lol

He rested last night so I think he's going tonight. Howard and Lin both game time decisions

At the time:

Lebron > KD
Wade > Thabo & Harden
Bosh > Ibaka

Only advantage OKC had at the time was Russ > Chalmers ... Chalmers still had huge games in 4 & 5.
