Comparing Booker and Durant to the NBA’s elite tandems

When comparing the duo of Devin Booker and Kevin Durant to the league’s best duos, how do they fare? From what I have observed so far, without delving into the stats, I would say not very well. If I had to choose two players to lead my team to a championship, both Booker and Durant would rank low on my list. This is largely because they haven’t demonstrated anything convincing enough to sway me into considering them a top duo in the league or the Western Conference.
