    For half of those chips, then Kobe had Pau. While Durant is clearly the more likable guy, it's questionable if he'll ever be the more dominant player.

    ...and of course, the poster you quoted was trolling since Kobe is one of the more polarizing athletes ever.

    Yeah let's be honest, the best player is still Lebron. He has more rings than other "best player" rivals, more MVPs, more Final MVPS and better playoff stats than KD, Curry, Rose, Davis, Harden etc.

    But KD is one of LBJ's main rivals and if fully healthy, I think he might actually be better since KD is already one of the best scorers in NBA history and is big and quick enough to guard 4 spots. So I personally don't think there's anything wrong with him saying that, guys like WB, KD, Harden etc. have all earned it and should have that mindset. On the other hand, if you have someone like Swaggy P or some random dude acting like he's the best then there's a problem IMHO, that dude is straight up delusional and would be laughed at by everyone.

    LeBron has twice as many rings as these guys combined. Amazing.

    On a more mature note, all athletes, entertainers and highly successful individuals must have this mentality. Common sensible.

    He could be at this point. He's not leaving OKC, and if he did he wouldn't come here. People that waste time/energy speculating on it really puzzle me.
