Top 12 players in the NBA
Posted on 6/20/21 at 10:53 am
Posted on 6/20/21 at 10:53 am
1. Durant
2. Kawhi
3. Giannis
4. Doncic
5. Jokic
6. Embiid
7. Anthony Davis
8. LeBron
9. Curry
10. Harden
11. Lillard
12. Mitchell
Durant was the best player in the league before the injury that final year in Golden State and has picked up where he left off. Giannis is unreal but the lack of shooting will prevent him from ever truly being the best in the game. I still leave LeBron on the top 12 list given the ankle injury, but I think his time as being the best player on a realistic contender is over as age 37 approaches. He’s probably realistically more of a top 12-15 level player this time next season.

Kawhi too high.
Mitchell not top 12.
Mitchell not top 12.

It's time to drop Jim from the top 10
Posted on 6/20/21 at 10:57 am to Stidham8
I would take Mitchell and Lillard over Harden…. Not even close.

We can debate the order all day, but those are the correct 12 names, IMO

Meh. I think all belong besides Mitchell. Kyrie would be ahead of him. I’m sure a few others as well.

Zion does not crack your top 20
Posted on 6/20/21 at 11:14 am to Stidham8
Curry way too low at #9. He’s absolutely top 5.

Right now? Nope.

That’s not a bad list but there is no way even a healthy Lebron is #2 at this point.
Posted on 6/20/21 at 11:22 am to Stidham8
That's a pretty good top 12. Id rank them differently and have Zion in there over Mitchell. But nice grouping

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

Why????? Those legs have a lot of miles on them……
Posted on 6/20/21 at 11:26 am to Stidham8
One thing is for sure and that is Luka is about 1 very soon.

I think he has 1 more truly elite season in him. Ankle injury basically wrecked his year.

You don’t typically see aging stars have rebound seasons in their late 30’s.
Kobe and Wade both retired at 37.

Did you forget what James did with that roster by himself for a large part of this season?
