I wish the guy well and hope he beats the Heat. But with all this talk on TV and the radio about Durant, the thought that keeps running through my head is "Lofton was better". I'll never forget No. 5 flat out upstaging Durant against Texas, and when I think about it I can't help but smile.

I didn't realize Durant only had one 3 shot over him in his entire adult life........and it came at the hands of Chris Lofton.

So you're telling me if you were an NBA GM and you had the choice between Kevin Durant and Chris Lofton (coming out of college) to build your team around you'd take Lofton? I love Lofton as much as anybody but.... Come on man.

This maybe true back then but as of the current day KD is the best player in the NBA

It wasn't true back then either. It was one game. The words "Loften was better (than Durant)" should be immediately followed by the phrase "for about 20 minutes of his life". The other 24 years or so belong to Durant.

I agree and I think KD got robbed of the MVP past three years

Lofton just didn't have ESPN backing him because he went to Tennessee and ESPN hates us. If I was forming a team, I would pick Lofton before Durant. But not real NBA team with real money involved. Maybe on a video game or playground game. No, not a playground game, as I would want to win. So maybe just the video game. Ah **** it - I'm taking Durant.

And btw, CL < KD, OP. It's the truth. CL will always be our favorite Vol, but be reasonable. No comparison.

Look, I am well aware that KD is more of a complete basketball player than Chris Lofton. But what I was trying to say was that those two went head to head in college, and on that day Lofton came out on top. And I think that's awesome.

Your talking about 1 game and a couple of shots. CL and KD wasn't playing one on one. There is a reason they are where they are right now. CL is one hell of a shooter but KD is the total package
