    Anthony Davis may very well be the most overrated player of this generation. Incredible talent, but isn’t even remotely a winning franchise player. That has to matter.

    He’s better than Westbrook and Westbrook tricked the world into giving him an MVP.

    I don’t think in my lifetime there has been a player more overrated than Russ.

    Also where are House and Faried on everyone’s list? Wouldn’t we be wrapping up a title if we had played them? lol

    It's Curry #1.

    IDK after that, lots of guys in that next tier.

    I despise Westbrook, and I would pick Davis over him in a vacuum, but he’s accomplished far more than Anthony Davis has. FARRRRRRR more.

    Gonna try.

    Greek was outplayed by Kawhi by a large margin in the Bucks Raptors series, they were favored to win yet lost 4 in a row.

    LBJ could not even make the playoffs.

    Assuming optimal health for all:

    Kevin Durant
    Kawhi Leonard
    James Harden
    LeBron James
    Steph Curry
    Anthony Davis
    Giannis Antetokounmpo
    Paul George
    Nikola Jokic
    Joel Embiid

    Kawhi's ability to just flip the switch is amazing.
    Harden goes ahead of LeBron only because LeBron mailed it in last season.
    Both Steph and Harden warp the court - they literally change the game.
    AD can get his own shot in the half-court and Giannis cannot reliably do that yet.
    You could argue Dame, Kemba, Kyrie, or Russ versus Jokic and/or Embiid for the last two spots - I'd rather have the younger players.

    Well, he's lost to the Warriors roughly as often as Harden had a few years ago (Davis is 3.5 yrs younger).

    3.5 years ago, what had Harden won? He had one WCF trip where he got torched by the Warriors. So basically, the difference in their records at the same age is that, in one year, Harden's team got one round further before being sent home by Golden State? And you find that compelling?

    What has Westbrook done without Durant leading the way? A few seasons as the six seed and an early playoff exit, plus piling up regular season counting stats with atrocious efficiency?

    Westbrook is as empty a regular season stat compiler as there is. Ferocious competitor and crazy athlete, but not the guy you want if you hope to win anything at this point. PG13 and Dame are both better than he is these days.

    I hope "real unbiased list" is a sarcasm. Here people put Harden and Greek Freak above Curry and Kawhi, and on other side I'm a "casual" fan becaue I argue Thompson should make All-NBA 3rd team. This forum has some really "funny" users.

    I like kwahi....his health n missing so many regular season games is a mark against him..if he was constantly playing the whole year he would be higher.

    You make some valid points I'd still take Russ over Lillard tho Lillard just doesn't move the needle for me at least Russ got a MVP & a finals appearance but PG I can contest to that
