Luka can change that... we'll see.
So after all that you have in fact taken the same 5 names I put at the top of the poll.

Everyone should just nod and agree with them on some "yeah Kobe totally sucks" stuff
Maybe then OP will go away

There's literally no need to discuss Kobe in this thread. He's not one of the 9 options, and you indicated you wouldn't vote for him anyway. Your complaint is self inflicted.

If it's about what they're likely to do going forward, Wemby is clearly a stronger candidate to build around. In no way is Luka a serious candidate for anything here.

You and I actually agree on something? Fascinating!

I voted for KG over Jokic, but I listed the top 5 options based on who would likely get the nost votes.

Wemby hasn't shown it yet though, and Kawhi lacks longevity to some degree despite peaking higher.

Luka hasn’t shown it either. He hasn’t completed a single season as a top 5 player in the league. Any list with him as a potential top 5 player over a 25 year period would be about what you expect him to potentially do in the future. In that way he’s just like Wemby, only way with a WAY lower ceiling.

Agree, I'd not consider Kobe for this list. But just leave him there and let the Kobe fans make the bad vote.

There's an other option for off the wall picks, and currently relatively few people have taken that option. I'm trying to list the best 9 options next to other. It's impossible to pretend Kobe is one of them. Honestly, he's not even close to the toughest cut.
