Throw Kyrie in the mix as well.
If Brooklyn was managed better and never acquired Harden, they would've been dominating the NBA by now.....easily.
For sure, it's just Bron/KD/Curry maxed out more of that all time great talent than he did.
LeBron: Sure folks might make fun of LeBron having a losing record in the finals but it's only due to Michael Jordan-based insecurity and folks who hate him cuz they rocked with KD, Curry, the Knicks, etc. None of that shyt actually matters. He's the best ever statistically, the best athlete, the best passer, and he did everything he was called to do, but THEN SOME. I don't think folks truly realize how incredible it is to have those type of expectations before you're even a legal adult and actually deliver.
Hating on LeBron James is a competitive sport, because it takes effort to be that imaginative. Much easier to just accept reality that he is everything he and his fans believe himself to be. The sane ones, at least.
Durant: The best scorer I've ever seen by light years. Science Fiction to be that tall with those offensive skills. The most transferable, plug and playable superstar. A superstar who doesn't need the system to revolve around him, which is invaluable. Efficiency from a wing that I did not believe to be possible until he arrived. I've never seen a player with that combination of physical talent and prodigious skill, and I'm equal parts excited and scared to see how long he can keep doing this. Took on the challenge of evolving his game as a passer and defender, becoming an impact maker. Glad he got his rings and his resume is as well rounded as it is in spite of the fact he should have 4 or 5 rings rather than just too. Hope he can get one more shot at a third
Curry: Changed the sport by being so much better than everyone else at the single most important skill a basketball player could hope to have. I personally think he is the most influential and impactful player to ever walk planet earth. On top of that, he has the nerve to have those handles and finishing ability. There are times where I am not sure he's even a human being. He even had the humility to accept KD coming to his team - most players of his caliber would never let that happen. I always wanted him to be tested for alien DNA, but I was told by security at the Oracle I wasn't allowed to touch him in order to gather a sample. Very frustrating night.
Kyrie is mad skilled with GOAT handles, but he never took it to the level they did in terms of career and resume, so I can't realistically put him at that table. Shout outs to a Jersey legend though.

LeBron would not have won that championship in Cleveland without Kyrie (or vice versa) and other than Cleveland, Kyrie has never had a complete team to win a championship with like Curry/Bron/KD which is why I put him in there.For sure, it's just Bron/KD/Curry maxed out more of that all time great talent than he did.

All 4 are the mount Rushmore of this era with completely different skill sets which compliment each other. You can put 3 of them interchangeably on a team and they're unbeatable.
That Brooklyn team was completely gutted and inexperienced when Kyrie and KD were acquired but Harden (and Morey) is a poison to any franchise.
I have to see Curry play in person before he hangs them up. Ticket prices when he comes to NYC be insane though
Worth it bro.I have to see Curry play in person before he hangs them up. Ticket prices when he comes to NYC be insane though
I tried to plan it out for the last 2-3 yrs to actually see him in SF. It just never worked out.
On Monday I saw they were playing in Orl and made it happen real quick.
But definitely 100% worth it.
Maybe the volume could allow for it, but the talent won't. This is what dominance is. When you're so much better at what you do than everyone else that it becomes a competition for 2nd place.
