LeBron James vs Kevin Durant: A complete comparison

#7 Impact on team

Cleveland Cavaliers Media Day

LeBron James is a great leader and has made a significant impact on the teams he played for. He thrives off making everybody around him better, pretty much every aspect of the game even when he doesn’t have the ball in his hands.

When he joined Miami and formed the big three, they were unstoppable and won two Titles. James has carried the Cavs in the past and also led them to victory by beating one of the greatest teams of the modern times(73 wins).

Such is his impact on the team, they came back to win the series from a 3-1 deficit and snatched the victory from the jaws of death, the only team in the NBA history to accomplish such an incredible feat. He will be a great asset for the Lakers and could make a great impact this season.

2017 NBA Finals - Game Three

Durant made a huge impact for the Oklahoma City Thunders, his eight seasons there are a testament to that. Thunder clinched a spot in the 2012 NBA Finals due to his impressive performances. His addition to the warriors helped them win two straight Championships and are expected to win again this season.

He steps up whenever his team needs him. He has formed a formidable partnership with Steph Curry and the rest of the Warriors squad. He has added another dimension to the attacking system of the team. He seems to be improving after every game and will only get stronger.

LBJ is a complete player and his impact on teams is clearly seen and the same can be said abut Durant. The Durantula could match up with LeBron in terms of legacy as he has a lot to offer and is also younger than James. Regardless of that, both these players are elite and play a vital role for their respective teams. LeBron James currently has a higher hand in the game of stats but expect KD to even up the score soon. Could this year we see Warriors vs Lakers for the Conference Title? Let's hope so.
