5. L- Train ass, french ass, King ass, bron ass, now the ending is a train of ass.
my top 5? well numbers 2 and 1 are ties because i find them equal
5. my boy stephen curry!
pulling out threes when he needs to and not afraid to go straight into the paint! could work on his handles though
4. MY Man NR NATE ROBINSON.
my favorite player on the bulls since MJ. (now hes on the Nuggets
)
good shooter who can move the ball around. if he was on a better team he could be even better.
3. Mr all day errday beard aka the REAL king james. James harden
making the rockets better with my asain man jermy lin and my brotha from anotha motha dwight howard. great passer and general of the rockets. Give them some time and i think they will win a final one day
2 its a tie between Carmelo of the anthony and.........lebron...of james...........-_- (Fck the heat)
Lets start with james -_-
yea hes got skill but hes not the best. His ego is going to his head and is becoming more like that ass Kobe Bryant. hes being a ball hog but atleast he can score. pretty good on defense (but bosh is so much better)
now Carmelo.
IMO hes better offensively. 60 something points? jesus. good handles and is all around a solid player. But that defense.... it needs work i see many players just go around that defense.
1. CP3 and KD
CP3 the leader of assists.
and KD the next MJ.
ENOUGH SAID
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
1. Lebron
1A- KD
3. CP3
4. Kevin Love
5. Stephen Curry
iscaremonkeys
why do people feel lebron is the best. He clearly isnt compared to KD and CP3
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
CP3-
19 ppg
11 apg
4 rpg
LBJ-
27 ppg
6.5 apg
7 rpg
KD
32 ppg
8 rpg
5.6 apg
The numbers don't lie brah. KD is having the best season of his career (better than Lebron's so far), but he needs to lead his team to the promised land, like Lebron has twice.
CP3 doesn't have anything warranting him being better than Lebron or KD. let's see the clippers get past the 2nd round, and then we'll talk. Unlike KD, CP3 doesn't even have better numbers than Lebron.
Oh and BTW, how is Nate Robinson anywhere near the top 5? More like top 50.
AsbestosFlaygon
1. LeBron James
2. Kevin Durant
3. Kevin Love
4. Chris Paul
These 4 guys are so far ahead of the rest of the entire NBA roster, in both stats and skills.
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
I actually agree with your list. I'm a little stuck between love and paul though.
bnitch10
My top 5:
5. Kobe Bryant
4. Da-White Howard
3. Jonathan Toews
2. Wilt Chamberlain
1. Wayne Gretzky
LordofBrooklyn
1 Kevin Durant
2.Lebron James
3.Chris Paul
4.Carmelo Anthony
5.Kevin Love
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
I agree that durants had a better regular season than lebron, but IMO for him to truly be the best player in the game he needs his ring this year.
And I'd argue that kevin love>carmelo, right now at least

The Renegade
1. LeBron James
2. Kevin Durant
3. Carmelo Anthony
4. Stephen Curry
5. Kevin Love
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Surprised to see someone rank melo and curry ahead of CP3
The Renegade
They're both better players than Paul is.
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
CP3's a better passer and a much better defender than both.
The Renegade
Perhaps, but he's not a better player, which is what the question was.
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
It depends, what method are u using to judge who's better?
Darth Martin
LeBron James
Kevin Durant
Stephen Curry
Blake Griffin
Kevin Love
Something like that. It becomes unclear after LBJ and KD.

I live in Chicago, and all I ever hear from Bulls fans is "Wait till Rose gets back..." Sorry, the guy was never in the class of any of these guys you have mentioned in this thread. I was just comparing his numbers the year he was MVP with Lebron's from that year: Not even close, Lebron destroyed him in every category. Agreed that KD had a better season this year, but it should have been bringing a 5 year MVP reign for Lebron to an end.
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Yeah, MVP's are usually decided on team record, with only a little bit of stats. Plus there's the narrative of, "oh he's carrying the team."
I wouldn't say he isn't in the class of Stephen Curry, Blake Griffin, Kevin Love, Carmelo Anthony, etc. At least, if you're considering his MVP season.
truejedi
if he ever plays again.

Derrick Rose will never be a top 5 player in the league.
Never was, never will be.
So, what do you guys think of a possible Kevin Love trade to CLE, now that LeBrawn is back.
Kevin Love for Andrew Wiggins and a couple of 1st round draft picks?

Ehh, the wiggins/love trade is a difficult one. On one hand you're getting a guaranteed star in love, on the other you have a potential superstar in wiggins.

Anybody that has KD ahead of Bron on this list is simple misinformed on basketball
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
1. Anthony Davis
2. Tony Wroten
3. Marc Gasol
Everyone else.
TheHulk
LeBron James
Melo
CP3
Curry

KuRuPT Thanosi
Incorrect and it's not close. Neither Curry or Davis are near Bron. Last I checked you either needed to win a title or at least take your team to the finals... hell even a conference championship maybe. Those two have done neither. You can't be the best if that's the case. It goes?
1. Lebron
The Rest
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Huh? Nah, I was talking about their play statistically as of right now, not some retrospective of their career achievements.
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
1. Lebron James
2. Anthony Davis
3. James Harden
4. Stephen Curry
5. Kevin Durant (would be higher if not for injuries.)

XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
He's the clear best player on the best team in the league. More efficient than ever, he's a 7'1 freak with handles, etc.

His either 6'10 or maybe even 7'0 at best but 7'1? GTFO!

we should revise this list every year lol.
1. lbj
2. kawhi leonard
3. westbrook
4. curry
5. durant
6. honorable number six cuz dude's from my city lol. Isiah Thomas
TheHulk
Damn man, i'm the same height as Isaiah and i must say that this dude should be an inspiration, if Nate Robinson wasn't one or Spud Webb if you are from the last generation
Edit: Btw spell his name right bro
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
I'm starting to find it harder to put anyone other than Lebron above Russell Westbrook.
TheHulk
What about Harden or Kawhi?
XSUPREMEXSKILLZ
Harden is slightly inferior to Westbrook in most areas, tbh. Harden is about as good as Westbrook in terms of scoring and passing, but he's still producing less in a faster-paced and better designed system than Westbrook while playing more minutes than Westbrook. Kawhi is probably the best two-way player in the game, but he's not the dynamo that is Russell Westbrook. He's not as relentless as Westbrook, and Westbrook is a better scorer, rebounder, and much better distributor than Kawhi. Kawhi is definitely a better defender, though. Ultimately, Westbrook has been the most productive player in the league over the past 3 years in terms of points/rebounds/assists. This year he's really showing how much he can produce, and he's arguably having the most productive (not necessarily most efficient or statistically impressive) season ever.
Give me that guy over anyone sans Lebron, as of right now. Things may change in the playoffs.

Well i can't really argue with the points you are making but how about how much each of these players mean to their respective teams. I mean you're right that Westbrook is having a godly season but honestly this year MVP list is unbelievable this year because all the candidates to me are miracle workers for their respective teams. Everyone one of their teams could be absolute shit without them. Kawhi is leading the Spurs to the second seed and very damn well good enough to be first. Harden is everything you said but i really do respect Hardens better efficiency and i can't actually believe Harden can carry this team like this, i mean he really leveled up his game the most. Just my opinion though
