I am not sure that Durant would beat Westbrook one on one at this point. And I no fan of Westbrook at all. Durant is beat up.
They used to have 1-on-1 games on TV years ago. The little guys destroyed the big guys, and it wasn't close. A lot has changed in the skill set of the taller guys today, but I think Lillard would kill him with long range shots and easily drive past him for easy layups.
I wouldn't get measured for the All-Star uniform just yet, Mark. Dirk has an incentive to let the boss win. Durant....not so much.
I can never keep up and know I miss some good threads at times. To add to the though that the Blazers forum rules? I was just looking at all the teams members numbers and posts. I think we might have more than all other teams combined. Best forum in the NBA hands down. You all should pat yourselves on the back ( I understand I'm a noob. As much as I love Dame, KD has a hell of an outside jumper that Dame would never get too. Dame may be able to get around him, but KD's length is still gonna get a hand up there to contest Dames layup from behind, resulting in some blocked shots, most of the time. Unfortunately, KD is one of the most unique players in the league. I think there are very few that could take him one on one. LBJ, yeah, LMA? probably. Hard to see any other player though. I say this being NO fan of KD, just unbiased respect.
Huh? Why would those two compete for the spot, when they are both in right? I think you mean Dame instead of Durant?
I didn't mean for a spot in this case. I mean just playing one on one period. Durant is beat up right now (although so is Dame).
