not anymore. durants ability to take a game over is insane. and the dude has great eyes too.
I disagree because while obviously KD is a better player at this point in their careers, Kobe is still the most "Jordan-like".

I told yall Collison was gonna be an x-factor in this series. People earlier in the playoffs were saying he shouldn't get minutes...

My beef has always been with Perkins, and Collison by association. Anyone who is taking away minutes from Dr. Nasty.

Collison is definitely better than Perkins tho.

Fair or not, Durant will be declared the best player in the league if the Thunder win this series.

would be pretty cool for Kevin to win the title against the guy he finished 2nd to in MVP voting

when's the last time the Finals consisted of the MVP and the runner-up facing each other?

Kobe was the MVP and KG was 3rd in 2008, and AI was the MVP in 2001, Shaq finished 3rd as well.

I assume it's someone vs MJ.

last time runner up won against the MVP was 1985 when Magic beat Bird

Malone was the MVP in 96-97 and MJ as the runner up beat him in the finals.

I don't really view Durant as Jordan-like at all. Their games aren't similar imo.

Kobe is so much like Jordan.

Hey cheat, you do know that Skip just brought up Durant could touch Jordan one day. You're now automatically wrong.
