Nope, he's not making my top five of the 90's.
Though, he'd be my 6th man.

Now: Durant (homer pick), LeBron, Kobe, Deron, CP3 (those last two and maybe roy are so exciting to watch, especially since they do so much with the dribble) I'd like to somehow include bogut too

Past: Jordan, Pippen, Kemp (Pippen and Kemp are the 2 best in game dunkers ever IMO) Magic, Manute Bol

Draft: Patrick Mills (doubt he'll nominate this year) Beasley, Jawai, Pargo (good to watch but the ultimate tweener), Gordon, Rose

On a related note there's nothing i appreciate more than watching a player take over a game with ultimate domination. Seeing LeBron make it look easy to get to the rack when he's team down 2 in the clutch is the ultimate sight for me. Just thought i'd add that
