K. Irving needs to be a lot higher in most lists I'm seeing here

 

Anyone who ranks Blake Griffin higher than Derrick Rose, James Harden, Irving and Kevin Love has the worst list ever. So most of you above me have the worst ranks ever and will never have my respect. Blake Griffin is such an over hype player and a little overrated.

 

1. Jeremy Lin

You disregarded the under 30 rule then you didn't include Kobe?!! Wow...

 

Kobe's not a top 15 player today

 

Must be trolling.
