Kevin Durant gave us a playoff performance for a lifetime in the Brooklyn Nets-Milwaukee Bucks Eastern Conference Semifinals Series. Without Kyrie Irving and an injured James Harden playing with him, he took his team into game 7, but fell short as they lose the series to Bucks with an game 7 overtime loss.

Durant sent the game in OT after tying the game with a tough shot over Bucks' PJ Tucker. But many criticized Kevin Durant's last shot in overtime that would tie the game for his team. He airballed a game tying fadeaway shot with 0.3 seconds left in the game.

Scottie Pippen is one of that many critics in his last play. The Chicago Bulls legend says Durant doesn't know how to play team basketball, that he tried to beat Milwaukee by himself, going punch for punch, instead of utilizing his team.

Pippen even compared the two-time champ to Lebron James saying "LeBron ain't gonna take that shot", that the latter will force a double team to facilitate and make a play for his team.



Inthe end Pippen mentioned that LeBron ain't KD and KD ain't LeBron. The two were different players.
