I think he was, pardon the pun, stating the truth. Those are all two 20 players of all time to most fans.

So, worthy wasn't worthy?
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

He's trying to come off as unbiased. He has a job now to pretend to not be biased

I think his main point was that it's extremely premature to say that Durant/Curry is the best duo ever, as there have been some other amazing duos.

I'm obviously biased, but I think Pierce is absolutely killing it in this new gig. He's already much better than Jalen Rose, Chauncey Billups, Barkley and Shaq. He knows the game, he's a sharp guy and he's not obnoxious.

Everyone always wants to kiss up to LeBron, but Pierce is absolutely right that Durant is currently playing like the best player in the league.

^ yup. Pierce did a great job explaining that people are jumping to conclusions when just 1 team had had many dynasties with duos

 If we are just talking duo's. Bird and McHale was the best of recent memory.

 KG and Paul would been legendary if Kevin could have gotten here five years earlier.
