I know Lebron's going to be 32 or 33 by then, but I'm still going with Lebron. The guy is unbelievable.

I voted Drummond because homerism and such. I'd say Durant on a more reasonable basis

Hahaha Wiggins option is too good not to pass up, let the hype continue.

If Lebron moves to PF I think he'll be just fine when he's 32 or 33. His shooting has improved every year so he'll be a pretty awesome stretch 4 that can also post up with his size.

Lebrons a better overall player due to his athleticism but just going purely off of skills and talent I think Kevin Durant is and will be the best player in 2017

Of all the young players, why is Drummond on this list? He hasnt even made an allstar team. Is 8ppg 8reb and 1.5bls really this much to be hyped about? There is other younger, better talent that will be around in 4 yrs.
Peja, Iverson, CP3, T-Mac, Starks, Artest. Will never get over how the 01-02 Kings got cheated by the refs.

LeBron is the best player in the nba still even in 4 more years. if u ask me he is slowly losing athleticism now. I remember on the cavs he was dunking a lot more and see more layups out of him more then often. but yes he is a superb player for sure. and I think he will still be dominate in 4 more years but the best player? no. how is wiggens up on this list when he could be a bust. college players shouldn't get reconition just yet. at least wait till he completes a full regular season in the league. if that's the case then oden would've been on this list if it was made in 07. Drummond is a choice I didn't pay attention to much but if ppl see his upside being that huge then I can agree with that selection but doubt he will turn out that good. the one that killed me was rose at 4th. he should be number 2 or 1. its going to be all Durant and rose by then. wiggins shouldn't be inhead of rose or even westbrook and im no fan of his at all. this poll needs to be made around December because rose will definently win over the skeptics that think he wont be the same player.

How do you see Kobe being the best player in the league at 39 years old? Wiggins, Lebron, Durant, Davis, Irving, etc. Really? Kobe?

Seems more like a Lakers homer than someone making a joke.
