G- Curry G- Harden F- Lebron F- Durant F- Kawhi If I had to pick a center it’s between Dwight and Gasol.
Why would you pick 2 guards and 3 forwards - teh decade is/was/dominated by perimeter players. They need to overhaul all star/all nba ballots. 2 G's, 2 F/C's and 1 wild card (who will probably be a guard)
Since this decade's shift away from having a center as a focal point of a team, I don't think there needs to be a center in the starting 5. The players you listed are the 5 best this decade and that's fine with me.
Curry Harden LeBron Durant Davis AD is my pick for best big man of the decade. 7 seasons of averaging 25 points, 10 rebounds, 2.5 blocks. That's a surefire perrenial MVP in any other decade.
Kawhi needs to get docked points for his load management, if you presume an all-Decade team is a cumulative award Total minutes, Regular Season + Playoffs since Kawhi's rookie season (2011-12) Kawhi, about 18,000 Curry (not very durable, has missed a lot of time) ~21000 Harden 25,000 James 29,000 Durant 25,000
I've already picked 2 small forwards, I'm not taking another. Otherwise this becomes a top-5 list instead of a team selection.
How can you not put the Rockets great who averages triple-doubles on this team? Kawhi career averages: 17/6/2
People hate Westbrook and say he's not a team player or a winner but they put Anthony freakin' Davis on this team?
If you look at pure centers, Howard numbers are comparable to other top centers. He won 2 of his Defensive players of the year this decade, 4x all nba teams, 3x rebound leader and 1x shot block leader
