While he may not enjoy the fact that James is considered the greatest ever by some, Durant did best James twice in the NBA Finals during his time with the Golden State Warriors.
In addition, one of the fans claimed James Harden was the best scorer in the NBA, clearly not the answer that Durant was expecting.
The University of Texas product is one of the greatest scorers the NBA has ever seen. He’s won four scoring titles throughout his career.
Durant signed with the Nets this past offseason but missed the entire season due to a ruptured Achilles.
However, the two-time NBA champion is expected to be back for the 2020-21 season, whenever it begins.
A 10-time All-Star, Durant has career averages of 27.0 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game.
