Durant is being unfairly pilloried in this regard. LeBron is the OG of jumping ship to make life easier on himself. And he did it twice. |

Hardly. But judging by their excellent playoff performance, it looks like it was the first year they coasted to that extent down the stretch.

But I don't think Durant did anything wrong. He made the decision that he wouldn't be able to beat the Warriors in OKC and joined them instead. If he didn't, he'd have never won anything at all and that would be far worse for him/his legacy.

In your opinion. Personally I hold Barkley and The Mailman in higher regards than Durant.

No. That's "pulling a LeBron." And he looks far worse because he literally abandoned teammates who helped him win a championship. He's a frontrunner. That's why his personality takes a sharp 180 when things don't go his way. And he's setting a poor example for younger players, like Durant, who evidently decided "pulling a LeBron" is the way to conduct your career now. Who's next? Anthony Davis? Blake Griffin? Sad. |

Anthony Davis has every right to go somewhere and it not be pulling a Lebron
the franchise he plays for is terrible, the team around him is garbage |

The Cavs were the same when they picked LeBron. Even WITH him they didn't make the playoffs the first two years of his career.

This is year SIX of him there, not year 2. So what he's suppose to stay there for 10 years in hopes the franchise gets him a real teammate? And no, Demarcus Cousins sucks he's not a real teammate. |

Lebron can't seem to stop Durant. And you say he's better than Jordan. Heh |
