And? You're upset Pels fans are throwing his hat into one of the best of the league when every NBA analyst is saying the same thing?
I am? Anthony Davis is a tremendous young talent, I enjoy watching him play, and will continue to do so into the future. I'm not sure "upset" is an accurate description.

Would anyone but a Piston fan bring up Drummond in this conversation?
What conversation...no one advocated Drummond being on this list. Did you even read what was quoted? The point was to look beyond the box score, which is applicable to Drummond as well. Granted, I would have liked to see him take more of a leap as a full-time starter, particularly with his interior defense, but he is still only 20 years old.

He's Deandre Jordan at this point.
If Drummond is still putting up the same numbers at twenty-five, then I will agree.

Yes, I read it. Paul George, Steph Curry, and Damian Lillard...then a Piston fan mentions Drummond in the same sentence.
As for Jordan, he never got starter minutes until this season. His per 36 of past season are pretty much on par with his 36mpg averages this season.
For the record, I really like Drummond. He could very well be the best center in the league in a few years.

You do realize that bball isnt just about offense??
Paul George finished 2nd in the defensive POY voting last year. He is probably the best 2 way player in the NBA outside of Lebron, when he wants to play D. George guards the teams best offensive player, and goes against the teams best defensive player on offense. KD doesnt guard the other teams top player full time like George does.
Yea KD is possibly the best offensive player in the NBA. I know that. Im not saying Paul George is a better offensive player than KD. Because hes not. But, percentage wise, he and KD are pretty much the exact same this year. KD is shooting 45%, George is shooting 46%. And both are right about 36% from the 3. KD averages 4 more points than him. Thats it. And George is 1 of the best defenders in the entire NBA.
KD is a better offensive player than George, but not by much. And George is clearly a flat out better defender than Durant.
And George is still 2 years younger than KD. Not saying that means much, but just a fact.
But your just looking at it from an offensive stats point of view. Of course KD has better offensive stats. Hes arguably the best pure offensive player in the NBA. George isnt the best, but hes a top 15 scorer. And a top 5 defensive player. And still improving every year. Meaning he hasnt hit his ceiling.

Reading comprehension must not be a strong suit, but that's OK.
I mentioned that it is hard to judge a player's worth by solely looking at the box score. I mentioned these 4 as examples. As I stated, no one even knew who Paul George or Steph Curry were before they playoffs last year. Damian Lillard plays on the West Coast. How many Tblazers games have you watched over the last season? Drummond is another player...he does a lot more for the team than his box score indicates.

There was a reason for that. Drummond's 2nd year numbers more resemble Dwight Howard's than DeAndre Jordan's.
Then, after all of that bashing, you go on to say

Leaves me like this.

Not that far fetched with the way George has been progressing and has been playing this year. It is scary because it seems as if George is figuring it out.
With that being said, I am still taking AD
