V-Anthony Davis- Averaging 19 and 10 on 50% shooting plus 3 blocks and 2 steals a game. Future MVP.

N-Cousins and Drummond

Cousins is the best offensive center in the league. playing decent defense. Drummond is an athletic rebounding monster. And in his second year one of the best finishers in the league.

This round nominate two players to make the voting pool 10 next round.

How is Lillard more valuable than Drummond or Cousins?

Anthony Davis is better than Paul George already.

Curry is an injury waiting to happen. There's no way he's more valuable than Drummond or Cousins.

Vote: Davis. Paul George is tempting, but Davis is quickly becoming an elite big and is just a kid and still on rookie scale. Davis transforms more franchises than Paul does.

Nom: Steph Curry He's a max player on a lot less than a max deal.

V: I suppose I'll go Davis, but I might change my mind several more times before I settle!

N: Dwight and Curry. I know we all hate Dwight now but I think he still belongs on this list, especially with his contract now secured.

I tak Curry b/c even though there's a risk, he's worth so mch more than he's paid. He took a discounted deal due to injury, and if healthy he's worth twice what he makes almost. I didn't say Cousins b/c he's only kept his cool so far for a quarter of the season. He's got me believing he's easily worth that contract, but not this far up the list. Lillard's on a rookie deal. Davis is at least as much an injury risk as Curry and has currently a shorter career than Curry, so I worry more about injury with him than Curry, plus the fact that bigs who are injured a lot tend to be worse off than guards.

Well as far as Drummond, he hasn't shown and sort of offensive game besides rebounding and finishing while lillard is a guy who can carry an offense and is tremendous in crunch time while Drummond is a liability. Cousins is more mature this year and he has been a monster but I've seen too many immaturity issues than I'm comfortable with.

I disagree on Davis being better than George. Maybe In the future he will be better but injury concerns are a huge deal when were talking top 3 in trade value. Plus there are so few wing superstars these days that effect the game on both sides of the ball

....wow. PG is not a super star lol. You even said Davis we'll be better in the future. And I'd bet quite a sum of money he will be.

Anthony Davis vs KG and Duncan

He should be a unanimous choice at 3

I said he may be better in the future, but that he has injury concerns. That's enough to sway the trade value when your talking players this close

Vote Chris Paul

Nominate Steph Curry

I think Paul could win a title as the best player on a lot of teams right now, which is what it's all about - plus his new contract is great for teams. George and Davis are close but their play this season is still over a small sample size.

Curry is a true star and on one of the best contracts

V: Davis
N: Cousins

Cousins has tremendous potential and is playing well so far this year. Probably best offensive big man. And I think Davis edges our George just because he'll probably end up being the better player, but you never know.
