Looking to see what some of the old schoolers who actually got to see Mr. King play thinks of this one...

Durant's a better rebounder and defender. King was an equivalent, or perhaps slightly better (at his peak) scorer than Durant, and a better passer. Tough call. KD's on a hot streak to open the season right now, though, so I'm waiting to see how this year plays out before I'll commit to this one. To date, though, I'd say King was better when he wasn't drinking himself into oblivion.
