LOL hilarious thethe is still ragging on LeBron for playing 4th quarters in blow outs, as if it happens every time. But thy noble KEVIN DURANT would NEVER do such a thing! He is way too good, way too nonchalant about catching LeBron, to care about playing in 4th quarters!

That whole premise is completely retarded. There's like 6 pages about this? Jesus.

Too add to that he aveage 8.8 minutes in the 4th quarters. Quick math:

Total 4th quarter mins: 8.8 x 81 (games played) = 713 4th quarter minutes played.

Subtracting 20 games from that would leave 61 4th quarters played. 713 minutes divided by 61 4th quarters= 11.69 4th quarter minutes.

In order for this to be true, KD would have had to play virtually every 4th quarter minute in those 61 games. i would assume that is not the case.

This was the from KD:

“We trust our bench. We trust those guys. Scotty is one of those guys, if they’ve got the game, there’s no need for us to put the starters back in. And I’ve been on board with that for three years now,” Durant said. “I’ve sat out, starters sat out at least 20 fourth quarters last year. You know, it really doesn’t matter, man. We just play to win. That’s all we say. We play to win. We had a nice lead going into the fourth and we trust, Reggie, Lamb, CB now, Fish, Nick to keep the lead. If they would’ve went on a nice little run, I’m sure coach would’ve put us back in. But I think we had the game.”

Obviously, I read that wrong. The fact of the matter is still true that KD doesn't play in blowouts in the fourth quarter.
 
My point is still valid even if he didn't sit 20 fourth quarters. KD does not play in blowout games in the fourth quarter. That was the point that was being made.
 
Even if LeBron did play every 4th quarter blowout of his career, who cares? Does that mean anything at all?
Who cares about numbers, Durant is still not LeBron and will very likely never be LeBron. Durant has to actually win first.

SO. FREAKING. WHAT!!!!
Does this point really enhance any kind of argument for you? Seriously.
I'm sure LeBron doesn't play in a lot of blowouts, either. Or at least sits a lot. Even if he doesn't, I cannot comprehend why you think that matters.
Criticizing LeBron for scoring 61 is just a hater thing to do, that's it. You want KD to be there, I get it, but he ain't.
 
You hear or read little stats and interpret them wildly and make each one the be-all, end-all of your argument.
I know you're more reasonable than that, but the homerism really comes out too much.
 
On March 2nd, KD played until there were 3 minutes left in the game.....despite the thunder up 18 points.

On Jan 29th, KD played until under 2 minutes left in the game when the THunder were up 20

On Jan 11th, KD played until under 2 minutes left in the gmae when the Thunder were up 14

I could go on and on. Just admit you are wrong. Because KD made an inaccurate statement doesnt mean you have to blindly follow.

Lebron actually played less 4th quarter minutes than KD last year.

Davis, sure.

CP3/Love, not quite but he's close to top 5.

Davis's average per game is about 10 rebounds, 20 points, as well as a handful of steals, blocks, etc. RW has only a small PPG advantage, despite averaging 2 more FG per game. Davis is a better defender as well. Also Davis has lest Free throw attempts per game.

RW obviously has more assists as Davis would obviously have more blocks. So what's your case that RW is better than Davis?
