KD is having a very Lebron-esque type season. Very nice all around game. Lebron's FG% are just ridiculous video game numbers.

Depending on the outcome of tonight's game, LeBron may have a setback in his chase for his 5th MVP trophy. He can flex his muscles all he wants against bad teams but against great teams such as HOU and SAS, he's played poorly thus far.

Yep, because LeBron has never stepped it up against good teams. :lol:

I'm sorry, hasn't the narrative for the past few days been about lebron closing the gap on the MVP race? I'm not quite understanding what your implying by your statement. Lebron playing great against good teams a month ago doesn't necessarily help his case at this moment.

Durant's lead increases (provided he and OKC beat Phoenix tonight).

Even if they lose @ PHX, KD is having a MUCH better game than LBJ who was playing on national TV

Yes, but the chances of KD playing garbage basketball in the 4th and Suns getting the W are not big.

Yes but if OKC lose then then is about a tie..
Durant was terrible against Cats and he played great against 76ers..
LBJ has two bad games after 61 pts.Nothing is over

Regardless of whether OKC loses or not, KD's lead has definitely increased a bit. LeBron has had two bad games in a row now. He better bring his A game against Chicago on national TV.

For me the records have more meaning..
Both LBJ and KD will have great games and some bad games too until the end of the season.
Records matter a lot at this point

KD will have definitively have a stronger lead after this loss. No question about it.

Those sleeves are horrible for LeBron. He had complained earlier about it. They should try to put it forward to the NBA if it continues to be a hassle.

You're trolling, and for that, I think it's best for everyone if you take a 12 hour break.

Yeah this was a very bad night for Lebron's MVP candidacy. KD has the edge, win or lose against the Suns.

Disappointing game by LBJ. It's one thing to lose but to lose playing like that hurts him.

Since both teams lost it's not a big deal except for the numbers.

Records at the top are so damn close. Miami, Spurs, and OKC all tied in the loss column with Indy one game ahead. The finish to this season is gonna be epic.
