Here is a glimpse of what Durant did and said.
Now show us the 2016 playoffs vs OKC when he CHOKED a 3-1 lead
Something real Goats don't do
Never claimed Durant was a GOAT player. Said 2017 and 2018.
Besides Lebron lost to Dwight Howard with HCA while KD lost to Zach Randolph with it. Lebron won bronze medal twice for the USA as well while KD only won gold medals for the USA.
No player is flawless in the modern era
Not even MJ, Kareem, Magic, Bird, etc
Lebron is regarded as a top 3 guy by most people who are credible and listened to, many even say top 2 now
KD is not in this discussion and this is always a huge waste of time, not going to go back and forth on an overdone convo
KD really can't even join the convo, just don't see a path. The value will never be there
Won with the most talented team ever and now he has another prime mvp, an elite all star, and a top 3 shooter in the league.
He doesn't have the potential to ever do some all time great like Lebron in 2016 or carrying that 2007 and 2018 team to the finals.
But maybe nobody in the history of basketball besides Lebron could do that somewhat consistently
