pros 1. Durant is faster 2. He shoots better 3. He is a better ball handler 4. Durant is taller 5. Durant averages more points

cons 1. Lebron is stronger 2. More athletic 3. Lebron is a better driver 4. Lebron averages mor assist 5. Lebron finishes better Kevin Durant is better than LeBron James. Lebron is a more experienced player than Kevin Durant but he’s still not as good as him. Kevin Durant is faster than LeBron. Kevin and LeBron both ran 40 yard dashes and Kevin Durant’s was 4.3 while LeBron’s was just 4.53. Also Kevin Durant shoots 56 percent from the field while LeBron just shoots 51 percent. Durant has a height advantage being 6’9 and LeBron is just 6’8.

Kevin Durant has more speed than LeBron. Sports science says by the way their bodies types are Kevin Durant's strides make him run quicker. If you watch Durant you can see his intensity getting up and down the court. Some people say that Durant's faster because of his weight but that’s not why, it’s his strides in between runs.

Durant is a better shooter because of his statistics. Durant takes his time and takes smart shots, which gives him a better chance of hitting it. LeBron is a player who is known for going full speed at the basket and going up strong. Lebron does take good shots but he rarely does that. Durant's three point and free throw percentages are higher than LeBron's. People say going to the basket strong is better but it’s really not because you’ll have a better chance of knocking down a wide open shot versus going against three defenders.

Lebron James is just 6’8 and Kevin Durant is 6’9 almost 6’10. Kevin Durant can play almost any position on the court because of his height. Being a tall and fast player gives him so many advantages out there on the court. Being a taller player gives you advantages on getting rebounds. Also having height makes it harder for defenders to contest your shots. Kevin Durant gets so high up on his jump shot he rarely gets blocked.

In conclusion, Kevin Durant is an all around better player than lebron. Durant shoots better, faster and he’s taller. Lebron is an excellent player but Kevin Durant beats him in all the small things and that’s what makes him better. I believe that they will both go down in the hall of fame but Kevin Durant will be more memorable.
