I think LeBron and Curry have to be the top two. After that, is he better than Durant? Better than Harden? Better than Paul? Better than Westbrook? Better than AD? Better than Giannis? Etc.

LBJ
Durant
Curry
Davis/Leonard
Harden

Leonard is handedly better than Harden+Paul+Westbrick+Giannis.

I don’t think Durant is better than Curry. Just have a look at their on/off numbers. And how they’ve fared when each player is injured. Curry is a guy that makes everyone around him better. Durant doesn’t really do that.

The system is tailored specific to him. It's a 1a/b situation and definitely up for debate.I still think KD is better but I understand your point.

I'd have it:

LBJ
Curry
Durant
Kawhi
Harden
AD
Giannis
Westbrook

I wouldn't say the system is tailored to him. Curry IS the system.

A lot of NBA Twitter is like that. The way they talk about certain players is suspect. Melo isn't a HOFer yet Joe Ingles is the greatest player in the history of the game.

Melo will be a HOFer, it's just the flavor of the month to hate on his career achievements (college/international) bc he has never won in the NBA and longer can contribute at a high level (I think HOF criteria may need some changing though, too many guys get in)

Joe Ingles being GOAT is pretty clearly a meme based on him being underrated by casuals bc he looks like a math teacher
