We have debates all the time in various threads over who is better so I thought what better time than summer to see where the General Board lies in its view of the top 25 best players.

I'll update each new poll with the rankings of the last and the percentages of who won.
There's only 10 options per poll so new options will be added as we get lower and lower.

Lets come to a consensus. Feel free to comment who you voted for and why.

If you think someone else should be in the poll who is not there please comment and i'll adjust accordingly.

I would appreciate it if you can state clearly the procedure.

We vote daily(?) the best player among those who are remaining (and in the poll)?
And after each day, you remove said best voted player, list him as the next best player on our bestlist and start a new poll with the remaining players?

From your players I would replace Irving with Embiid

These are the procedures, yes. Every winner will be removed and then a new entrant will be included on the next poll.

Sorry about the delay I just got off a ban.

Donovan Mitchell next

Simmons getting lots of votes makes this the obvious decision.

What for? Don't leave us hanging brother! Thx for doing these polls, it is quite a bit of work.

Mitchell next

Towns, George, Horford seem like the best remaining. Voted Towns here.

lol one is not like the other 2. Almost everyone else remaining on the list is the better choice over Horford lol.

Anyways, I went with KAT here as well. Nominate Donovan Mitchell next

add Hayward please

Voted Towns, add Gordon Hayward

Add Mitchell

I guess I'm the huge outlier in struggling with this slot. I really like what Hortford brings to the table. I think he's underrated. I don't know if I'd rate him over any of the other vote getters.

Even though I voted for Towns, I think its time Kyle Lowry started getting some love. His stats and metrics the last 5 seasons speak for themselves.

With the way Casual Fans think of him, Lowry has undoubtedly become one of the most underrated players in the game today.

Voted Lowry, nominate Kemba

Add Donovan Mitchell

Add love

I go with Klay, not a big fan of Towns. Klay‘s shooting is way to good and he is a solid defender too. I would go with George but his last season was a bit disappointing

Simmons has more votes than PG?

Cmon now

Towns here. Should've been Towns at 13.

Add Mitchell

I went with John Wall. Add Drummond next.

Add Donovan Mitchell.
