LeBron. Age doesn't really matter since the established players become free agents after their contract.
Nominate Tatum.
Might be fun to do another thread to do a thread asking what we'd give for Bron.

Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Re: T&T board top 25 trade value - Vote for #1!
Vote: Giannis
I'm a little biased as he is one of my favorite players and think he is almost the ideal player to build a roster around. Maybe its a bit of a hot take but with his team rolling so well, his age and locked into a fair contract, yeah it would be hard to see trading him for anyone. Davis and Embiid have some injury concerns, LeBron/Curry/Harden are up there in age and it would be hard to start a promising new team build with, so teams are going to hold back assets in order to compete now and keep them happy, Durant could walk (he should be in top 10 tho)
Nominate: Simmons
Jokic absolutely deserves to be in the top 10 as well, but between Simmons/Jokic I cant get over the $18 million difference as having a significant impact on value. Durant should also be on here but he is expiring..

AD and Giannis are freaks, Curry and Kawhi are still awesome, Harden and Westbrook put up crazy numbers, but in the end the answer to these questions have been the same for nearly a decade:
Vote: Lebron
Nominate: Durant

Vote: Giannis
This isn't particularly closed for me when you factor in contract and health as well as the level of play.
Nominate: Jokic
Other candidates but I don't think they are as valuable for a number of reasons. I have no idea what Durant is going to do so I think he only has value for teams that could push for the title with him and those teams can't offer much.

No. It really doesn't. And the "without question" part is hilarious.
If the Bucks traded Giannis for Luka I would drive to the Fiserv and do my best to burn it to the ground.
Anywho:
Vote: Giannis. Although I think this is super-close with LeBron.
Nominate: Simmons.

I am surprised by the voting, because LeBron brings so much off-court value.
