    Durant a solid 2 tiers below LeBron as a complete player.

    LeBron = far stronger, far better athlete, far better defender, intimidating

    Durant = skinny jump shooter


    I hate the Heat btw.

    No way you consider Wade better than Durant. Then again, I guess since Durantula is young, everybody hypes him up even more. I think he's better than Wade.

    My current ratings are based on what each individual has delivered to their franchise at this point in their respective careers.

    Kobe will continue to lead this group by a wide margin until someone else (LBJ or Durant most likely) can accumulate as many (or more) rings than him.

    Chances are very slim this will happen.

    In short, Kobe = top 5 all time currently.

    Everyone else on list = not even in top 20 all time currently.

    So Duncan doesn't count because he is past his prime? Kobe and Wade are not much better than him right now

    is there enuff evidence presently to support kobe being the best closer?
    or is it mostly based on his past accomplishments ??

    Funny thread early on, nothing to dislike about Durant, but Lebron is the #1 player in the league...
