I love these type of things. This list looks different to me depending on what we are talking about. Winning right now vs starting a franchise. Also injuries obviously come into play. Assuming Durant is healthy he’d move up higher. Same for Paul George for me.
This just shows me what a dumbfucker Sam Presti is and what a cheap turd Clay Bennett is… You should have 3 of the top 6 players in the world on your team- with Ibaka about 30th…
haha Lebron at #1 nice joke peeps he cant even hit a jump shot he just bulldozes his way to the paint and he travels a ton which the refs never call plus he is a big sore loser he is 2-4 in the finals for his career he has as many rings as Adam Morrison…let that sink in

Let that sink in.
Davis is going to be a really great player when it is all said and done, but no way on earth is Lebron not #1. The guy goes to the NBA Finals every season, Davis hasn’t won a playoff series.
Basketball is a team sport. Picking a most valuable or “best” player is interesting, but ultimately meaningless.
Lebron with a younger Wade and Bosh> Lebron with the supporting cast he had in this year’s NBA finals. Still a great player either way.

That in a sense was the purpose of the thread. You can debate who the MVP should be. But at the end of the day, if you were redrafting the league today, what’s your top 10 look like? So, without actually having to say it, you are saying who you think the best player is.
I took the question as if im drafting a team to compete for the next 5-10 years who are you going with. I think Davis is a year or two away from being the best player on earth. Lebron is fantastic but has a lot of city miles on him.
But give me any of Davis, lebron, durant or curry and im happy. You can make a case for any of them at the top spot imo.
