Who is the better player, Deron Williams or Kevin Durant?

i hate that arguments, they play on different positions.
that´s like who was better, malone or stockton?
hakeem or jordan?
shaq or kidd?
....
you can´t compare that.

 

is everyone on here out of there minds???

Durant is way, WAY better than Deron Williams. Deron is a great player, but c'mon...

 

Yeah you take cp3/deron over Lebron any day and guess what happens?

Your team FAILS.

 

fixed or broke it for you.

 

29 people on this board need their head checked. Deron Williams is nothing compared to Durant and I will even go as far to say that Russell Westbrook will be better then Deron in 2 years. Thunder are going to be dangerous for years to come if they can keep all those guys together.

 

That was Wilt who scored a 100 in a game.

 

It's not even a question, and Durant is only 21.
Durant is a much, much better player.

The fg% argument is about as lame as bringing up a batting average in baseball.
That was a good stat to bring up in 1985...now it just shows that you're behind the times.
There is much more to scoring than a field goal percentage.
If you take 20 two pointers and shoot 50%, you get 20 points.
If you take 20 three pointers and shoot 35% you get 21 points.

There are umpteen more examples, including how many times you get to the line, that blows the fg% stat out of the water, but I'll digress for now.

Utah would trade Deron for Durant without having to think about it...they would throw in a draft pick and Miles to sweeten the deal if they had to...

 

Can you even compare the two? They don't even play the same position, and their skill sets are based on the position they play.

 

even when CP3 is healthy, he isn`t that much better than DWill.

but since CP3`s injury, DWill has been the best PG in the league hands down IMO.

 

I'll take Durant. There are plenty of PGs in the league...DW isn't clearly the best one. I'm fine with Paul, Nash, Rondo, etc. A 6-10 guy with guard skills and a deadly jumper is kind of rare. Not to mention he is only 21. No GM would take DW over Durant.

 

I don't know, they are both amazing. Deron is easily the best PG in the NBA now and Durant....he has just been sick

Those 2 along with Lebron might be the 3 best players in the NBA right now

 

Jazz just play like girls.. i mean durant scoring will only get better and his assists will only go up , williams in his prime we forget how young durant is , 20 21??

I like Westbrook but I don't see this happening at all.

In 2 years Westbrook will be better than Deron.

In 3 years Durant will be better than Lebron.

2 things we have heard within the last week. The Thunder should end up with about 8 championships if this happens.

 

Who is better is different argument than who would you take to build your team around. As for who is better, DWill has the stronger argument. He is the best player in his position. Durant, on the other hand, isn't. DWill can score and make the whole team run, while Durant only focuses on scoring.

On the other hand, I'd take Durant to build my team around, because he is younger, which means a longer career, and he is more unique and poses more matchup problems.

Both are fantastic players though.

 

Durant and it is not even close.

 

Yeah, you can always count on hyperbole going off the deep end in the heat of a winning streak or with an upset in the playoffs. And this series isn't even over yet.

 

Ill take Durant all day every day

besides the fact that KD is better, williams a jazz (almost threw up)

 

Who would take first, Kevin Durant or Greg Oden?
