Do you think Howard's body will break down?

I'd consider Aldridge, though I'm not sure how serious his heart condition will be down the line.

All-time greats generally stumble into at least 1 title before being annointed

aldridge, kanter, howard, and bynum were all tough
just tough to project big men

I am not impressed with the guys currently in college, and I think this year's recruiting class will be the worst since the 2005 Josh McRoberts/Gerald Green group. I am not even going to try to rate anyone who is a sophomore in high school or younger because I am not Clark Francis, and Clark Francis is a morbidly obese charlatan.
But if I had to add some wild cards, I would go with Anthony Davis, Shabazz Muhammad, and maybe Julius Randle.

i thought about putting davis in, but that's just too far to project

I really need to see some more Eric Gordon apparently, just not that high on the guy.

Should stayed there IMO.

I think I prefer 5+ years of first all-NBA performance over projecting some guys to really improve.

Same. Just curious.
I would not want to attempt this list at all. I would go Durant, Lebron, Rose, Westbrook (interchangeable with Rose), and Howard. After that, no clue.
Posted on 3/7/12 at 12:40 pm to SlowFlowPro
Kyrie should be higher IMO
Posted on 3/7/12 at 12:41 pm to SlowFlowPro
I think that Westbrook is too high. I don't know if I would have Gordon, Monroe, or Jrue in my top 15, and I definitely wouldn't have Paul George there. Kanter hasn't shown a ton yet, but he's an interesting developmental choice, and I can totally see Cousins becoming the fat version of Shawn Kemp since he is a headcase and has had weight problems before.
I would probably go: Durant, Rose, LeBron, Griffin, Howard as my top 5. After that, it's tough, but probably Irving, Muhammad (way too early, I realize), Westbrook, and Love. Not sure after that.

Add Derrick Williams from Minnesota to your list.

paul george has every indication he's going to be a super duper star. he just needs PT
holiday is just restrained by his roster/role

Nobody has mentioned James Harden? I don't know if he'll be on the Thunder when he does it, but I think he'll be a top 15 player.
Posted on 3/7/12 at 2:33 pm to floridatigah
How the hell is ENES KANTER on there and NOT John Wall?
Posted on 3/7/12 at 2:33 pm to SlowFlowPro
If I'm not mistaken, every player on your list was in high school 10 years ago, and you probably never heard of half of those players even 5 years ago. A few, you probably never heard of 2 years ago.

A list not including Linsanity is bullshite.
