What has Kawhi done to earn #2?


He has more championships than any player on the list not named Lebron and Steph.

Only player I'm taking over a fully healthy LeBron at this point is Durant.


Yeah this board hates him but dude just won a championship last season at age 36.

1. LeBron
2. KD
3. Embiid
4. Kawhi
5. Harden
6. Steph
7. Jokic
8. AD
9. Giannis
10. Doncic
11. Lillard

Think there a few guys who could claim that 12 spot, I like Zion and Trae the best for it.

Steph curry is the best scorer on the planet. He may not be no.1 because his height makes him somewhat of a defensive liability but that man carried the warriors by himself all season. When klay comes back everyone will remember who the man really is

1. Durant


Great offensive player. He often moves like a new colt trying to get up on his legs for the first time. Defense is optional for him and has always been. Going away in OT last night was another bad look. That was the Durant I knew in OKC. No Number 1 player is going to be that one-dimensional on my list. Or that un-clutch.

You have the top 5 correct, the order is just wrong:

Luka
Giannis
Jokic
Durant
Kawhi

And Lillard is definitely ahead of Harden now. Hell Booker and Young are too probably.

So much stupid in this post.

Played practically every single minute of the last 3 games.

Scored the most points every in a game 7.

Has been a really good defensive player since he joined Golden State.

Some of the dudes that have been ranked ahead of him are head scratchers for sure.

AD
Harden
Embiid

Over Steph? I don't think it's even close... at all. Steph is on a completely different level from those dudes, and others listed ahead of him. I don't think he can realistically be out of a top 3 or 4 list.

He's a scoring machine, always has been. The reality is that the Bucks put 6'4" Jrue Holiday and PJ Tucker on Durant for 7 games. 7' Durant sharpshooting over 6'4" guys who aren't even leapers in the midrange area. I would have to say that coach Bud was the gift that just kept giving.

Meanwhile, both the Bucks and Nets wanted no part of their best players matching up in this series. It's enough to leave a viewer wondering, what the hey?

Nets wouldn’t have been anywhere close to winning that series if KD was “unclutch”
