Can you make an argument that Kevin Durant was the best player of his team in every season of his NBA career? (alien.top)

Obviously, a season like 2014/15 doesn’t count, where he was out injured almost the whole season.

Durant joined the SuperSonics in 2007, averaging 20 PPG in his rookie season. He then played for OKC for many years together with Westbrook and Harden. Then he went to Golden State, playing with Curry and Thompson. After that, he joined the Brooklyn Nets and played with James Harden and Kyrie Irving. Lately, he joined the Suns with Devin Booker.

So I would say there are not many players in NBA history who had more star teammates over the years than KD. Can you still say that KD always was the #1 guy at the end of the day? Especially when it goes to the clutch time?

Harden was getting MVP talks over KD while playing for the Nets

On the playoffs, Harden was clearly the best player against the Celtics

He also has the “team won more with him” argument that Steph fans like so much

KD was the best in the world for that single series against the Bucks though
