1. LBJ - Still the best all around player.
2. Curry - Best offensive player in the NBA. Best shooter, best handle.
3. Durant - Should possibly be #2, but sports are fickle. He could also fall off the list. Bad injury, especially for a guy close to 7 foot.
4. Anthony Davis
5. Westbrook
6. Harden
7. Blake Griffin
8. Chris Paul - I hate even ranking him considering his playoff failures.
9. Kawhi Leonard
10. Demarcus Cousins - A shame he has to play in Sacramento. He does have some issues, but he puts up monster stats. If given the chance, I would take him over Marc Gasol, LaMarcus Aldridge, Duncan, and John Wall.

    KD is still the hardest player to pick on this list. I think davis and westbrook are higher than him right now until he proves he can be healthy again.

    Can't argue with that. At the same time, he was somewhat easily the #2 player in the NBA last year, and he looked pretty much the same this year when he did play. The injury is worrisome though.

    Only two of these 10 players have rings. But how is the NBA a fucking dreckfest?

    When most of the best players in the league are playoff chokers, the league isn't at its best.

    At least Davis and Cousins aren't part of that problem though.

    Who other than Chris Paul is a playoff choker?

    Dumbest argument ever. They were stupidly broken up before any of them turned 25.

    In their defense, they were coached by a massive fucktard.

    If I have to build my team around 1 player to win multiple titles in the next decade I choose Davis hands down. Also i'm a Sac homer (Koong?), but Demarcus is easily the best Center not named Davis in the league. The Kings fucking suck and have zero consistency (players and staff) but Boogie is downright nasty in the post and earns every stat he gets. Players in the league are scared of him. His rep is the opposite of Howard's, just a dominant big man buried on one of the worst franchises ever.

    Barkley has zero rings, and at one point and time was on par with any player in the league. And lets not forget players like Gary Payton

    The years Jordan was retired maybe. That shit doesn't count though. That was basically summer league.

    Why George but no Rose? Both are top 10 talents with massive health question marks.

    I agree if he fully recovers Paul George is top 10, maybe top 5. That's a big if though.

    I think that Rose has proven himself for what he is at this point ...

    George had a bad injury but I don't worry about him coming back ... I have more long term question marks about Durant going forward than George

    There may not be as much top end talent in the NBA right now but there is a lot of really good talent

    Upon further review I take klay Thompson over kawai Leonard.

    The only thing is kawai has a championship mentality while klay can be a little coog bitch. Not to mention he plays with zero pressure because it's all on curry.

    But still, He's a good defender and the most explosive scorer in the game.

    I said it at the time, I don't think George will ever be the same.
