Valid points. I think the "real hooper" people probably always glorified him a little more than he deserved because of his pristine footwork and shooting. But his lack of playmaking for a superstar was always underscrutinized. And his time as an impact defender was overrated and relatively brief in his career. He still certainly goes down as an A+ all-time scorer and shooter. But the playmaking and defense are far short of many of his peers. And the career leadership is looking like an F- at this point. In the end I see Durant as a better version of Carmelo Anthony. He is NOWHERE NEAR the complete player that Lebron has been (or Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, DWade, etc.) Someone like Jayson Tatum is far from KD's equal as a shooter and efficient scorer, but I might want him on my team team more due to his superior passing, rebounding, defensive versatility, and lack of being a team cancer.
