I saw a little bit of Kawhi in preseason and I feel safe to say that the seriousness of his injury was mostly bogus and he's alright to play. Top 10 players for next season: Lebron, AD , KD, Harden, Curry, Kawhi, Giannis, CP3, Embiid, Butler. The reason I don't have Westbrook is that he had a knee surgery so there are doubts as to how much he will be able to play next season. I would take all of those players over Kyrie. A dreadful defensively player who doesn't make up for it with playmaking and even statistically he has proven over his carreer that he's bellow average in clutch situations and not to mention the injuries.
Unquestionable Superstars (no order): Harden KD Giannis Kawhi LBJ Budding Superstars/Steady (no order): AD Curry Westbrook Jokic Embiid/Luka/Lilliard Just outside the top 10 (no order) Butler KAT Kyrie Porzingis Booker Kemba Drummond Hayward Simmons Griffin Rising Quickly (no order): Siakam Zion (healthy) Young Tatum Ingram Gilgeous-Alexander Wiggins Fox Nunn Ayton Barrett Jackson Jr. Falling out of/from (further away) top 20: Lowry Love CP3 Melo Gasol, M DeRozan
My ten. Spoiler 1. Harden 2. Westbrook 3. Tucker 4. Capela 5. Gordon 6. Rivers 7. House 8. Chandler 9. Anderson 10. Sefolosha
I think putting Doncic into consideration for top10 wouldn't be the craziest thing. I certainly think he's at least top25.
As of 10/15/20 Unquestionable Superstars: LBJ KD Harden Kawhi Luka Giannis Jokic Butler Lilliard 2nd tier Superstars Simmons Embiid Murray Tatum Beal Kyrie Westbrook Booker KAT George 3rd Tier Siakam K.Walker Mitchell Morant Young Zion Lavine Ingram Russell All-Star caliber Fox Lowry J.Brown Dinwiddie Gilgeous-Alexander Holiday
Not just Curry Forgot Klay, too. haha And Draymond usually is there somewhere. haha Spoiler I think he pissed off Spurs fans, too. Pops' somehow got DeRozan off the Top 30 radar. (Who here wouldn't rather have DeRozan with Harden, than Westbrook...btw)
