Especially considering the two were teammates for three seasons with the Golden State Warriors. Even when they were on the same roster, debates ensued about who was the better player. Both have a strong case as to why they should be chosen over the other. During a recent episode of FS1's "Skip and Shannon: Undisputed," Shannon Sharpe weighed in on the debate between the former MVPs. He feels the reigning Finals MVP is the clear option given what he's done with Golden State while Durant has had a turbulent time in Brooklyn. "At some point in time, we're gonna have to stop falling in love with Kevin Durant's intangibles. Oh, he's 7-foot tall. He has the wingspan of a terradactyl. He's graded all three levels. He can shoot the three. He has a great midrange. He can finish, and if you foul him, he goes to the free-throw line. "In pro sports is all about updating your resume. This is what I know about Steph Curry: He has the Bill Russell Award. ... He did not get swept in the first round. So at what point in time do we hold Kevin Durant accountable for not advancing teams to the finals?" UNDISPUTED@undisputedWould you rather have Steph Curry or KD? "Steph. At some point in time we have to stop falling in love with KD's intangibles. In pro sports it's all about updating your resume. When are we going to hold KD accountable for not advancing his teams to the Finals?" — @ShannonSharpe31851Would you rather have Steph Curry or KD? "Steph.

Kevin Durant might not have the same team success as Steph Curry, but he's still proven to be a premier talent. Two postseasons ago, Durant almost single-handedly overcame the Milwaukee Bucks in the second round. He played nearly every minute of the series and was inches away from a conference finals appearance. He did all that with a pair of injured co-stars. ماجدة ويتكوب@madiwittkoppSteph Curry > Kevin DurantNo one can change my mind ‍Steph Curry > Kevin DurantNo one can change my mind ‍ https://t.co/D0loI1ozrl Since Golden State is fresh off a title victory, it's easy to choose Curry over Durant. However, it needs to be brought up that the Nets star has had minimal help over the years. Between Kyrie Irving's injuries and part-time status, James Harden leaving abruptly and Ben Simmons not taking the floor, his supporting cast has not been reliable. Curry has certainly proven he can lead a contender at this stage of his career, but Durant still belongs in the same tier.
