Is Kevin Durant officially the second option?

Why should Durant take more shots?
they have the best offense in the NBA
they have the best offense in the NBA
Brief Keef
Superstar
Kevin Durant Field Goal Attempts per game : 18
Russel Westbrook Field Goal Attempts per game : 19
Russ done took over the whole squad.
Durant is on pace to be the first ever scoring champion in NBA history to not shoot the most attempts on his team, if he beats out Melo.
Is this better for the Thunder? Durant has in my view an inability to show extreme aggressiveness in important situations. He can hit clutch shots but can someone post a video of Durant utterly taking over a 4th quarter? He's a brilliant player but it is slowly but surely becoming Westbrook's team.
Edit : Before the inevitable Buh Buh Kobe shot more than Shaq during the three peat... to that I say Kobe and Shaq we're option 1A and 1B when Kobe shot more, and furthermore Shaq was a post player and Kobe was a wing player... Durant and Westbrook are both jumpshooters who get their points the exact same way and in my view have very similar skillsets... they both shoot a lot of jumpers in transition and off the dribble, while depending heavily on the FT line. I understand FGA is not all that makes you a second option but they basically do the same shyt so
yea sabo took over the squad because he takes one more attempt then KD
2k13 ?
I never once agreed with you. What you're saying is bullshyt.
Why do you continue to be this dense? Why is he trying to have more of a facilitation role on the Thunder? Because you're the team leader that equals out to you should shoot more?
So he should shoot more regardless of the situation in the game and not look to get his team involved because he's the leader?
That's not the reason why lost they to the Heat at all. Plus he only averaged 2 assists in that series, so drop that stupid shyt of how he was playing like lebron led them to failure.

He's not cp3 he's not Bron no one is saying shoot at any occasion that's stupid but to shoot more than Westbrook ? Yes ! You can get your teammates involved and take the most shots the bottom line is to make sure you let kd play to his strengths . I saw the damn finals he was Lebron like by not imposing his will on the game and letting Westbrook shoot more sacrificing to get the team involved . Wait its brooks fault
kd has no say in anything because he's not aggressive enough to do something besides have lovers quarrels with sabo . We killed wade and Bron for letting spo make stupid play calls so kd gets the same

God damn watch a basketball game and stop quoting stats
you And Hollinger must be buddies .Yes you agreed he's not aggressive so stop lying

You do realise he averaged more 4th quarter points than every single other player in the finals right - how the fukk is that not imposing his will? How was he not playing to his strengths? He sacrificed his game by getting the team more involved by averaging 2 assists?
It's Brooks fault that he doesn't rein in Westbrook and doesn't make him run a proper ball-movement offense.
God damn watch a basketball game and stop quoting stats
You tell me he needs to be more like melo and demand the ball, I tell you that you're wrong and provide EVIDENCE and you reply watch the game. Are you telling me that those stats are wrong?
I have no problem with that :trollbron:
Because Miami shuts all that iso shyt down.Why should Durant take more shots?
If Russy is taking 15 wild shots from midrange and trying to beat 3 defenders at the rim, it's gonna be another short series
Dude only had one great game in the Finals with all his chucking...and they still lost that one.
It's not just Durant should take more shots, it's that their entire "offense" has no structure and that starts with Brooks and Westbrook.

Rest In Power Kobe
OkC don't run an offense
And it's hard as hell for your best player to not be able to find himself a good shot at end of game situations, like Durant still struggles with.
Dude's lack of aggression really concerns me. He won't win a title until he snaps and says, "I'm getting 50" like Kobe would.

thread title got me 
for some reason.
for some reason.
Ok here's one stat I want from you how many wins does kd have vs Bron ?? Long as that stat is 1-6 he can keep doing those things and keep not getting a ring . At some point he needs to take his future into his hands if Westbrook is the problem rein him in . If brooks is the problem get him fired . He needs to be aggressive and do what's best for him
Either man up and establish a pecking order or get brooks fired . This is a trend with the team it happens all the time
