I haven't seen the list but I know Derrick Rose has an MVP and has carried a franchise on his back. I'm assuming Durant is number 1. Anybody other than Rose at #2 is a joke, imo
It's an insider article, but from what I can tell the top 5 are..
1. Durant
2. Westbrook
3. Griffin
4. Harden
5. Rose
2

Rose pre-injury #2 guarantee.
all because he's injured he drops, but I'd still take an injured rose over #2-4 and be patient with his recovery.

I think Thorpe might be the best "basketball guy" that espn has but I think he's wrong here.
Im fine with Durant at number 1 but I have issues with Westbrook, Harden, and Griffin being ahead of Rose.
Like i said, Rose already has an MVP, something nobody on the list can say. He carried a franchise by himself to legit success, also something nobody on that list can say.
Seriously, would anybody really trust Blake Griffin to lead their team to a championship over Rose? The guy was benched in crunch time of the playoffs last year.
James Harden shoots a bunch of FTs and has the Rockets in the exact same spot they've been in for the past decade. .500
Westbrook/Rose is closer but i give Rose the benefit of the doubt because he's been in a position that Westbrook will likely never be in. Westbrook doesn't carry the burdens that Rose does because he's never been the best player on his own team. I also like Rose's temperment and leadership abilities more than Westbrook's.
