Bam or Herro for me. Duncan's right there though.

Tbh, don't really care about anybody outside my Heat.

Zion, Kyrie, Doncic, Jokic. I’m very hyped watching these guys make plays. Draymond Green’s defense also excites me, Marcus Smart’s too.

when ja plays it feels like jazz. the one that sticks out in my mind was a "dipsy-doo" where he left BOTH FEET OFF THE GROUND to dribble out of traffic on the way to a full court dunk. it is my hilite play of the season.

he's a deer in ballet shoes!!!! he's gale sayers!!

but that zion block was something from another planet

PG and Kawhi, i like their slow paced game, they have all the moves to score at will, doesnt matter if its mid range shot, attacking the rim or a 3 pt shot.

They also play with a lot of swag

Jazz? Ja to Utah confirmed!

Seriously though, there's lots of exciting talent in the league. From a biased standpoint, there are a few Jazz players that I always get excited to watch when they're in.
Setting that aside... the guys I gravitate to are Lillard, Luka, Klay, SGA, Siakam, Devin Booker, Jaylen Brown, Ben Simmons.

Trae... for some reason I can't pinpoint... I just don't get into his game.

But back to Ja... that's the guy I want to see. Electric!

My must see league pass line-up is Ja, LaVine, Doncic, Zion, and Giannis.

perhaps missed the career of amare stoudamire?

and i know he looks like a giant preying mantis and flubs and fumbles around alot but when kristaps actually manages to send it in it is usually done with flair, force and unique style. the other night he took gobert off the dribble from the top of the key and cranked the jam hammer right in his french face. it was exciting.

hard not to name zion for this thread. that block the other night would have been a home run in most mlb parks.

Surprised there's not more love for Giannis here. Between his dunks, ballhandling, physical abilities and blocks, I thought for sure he'd be on most everyone's list.

I don't like his game. Very forced.

No ones really that exciting, I guess that's why no ones really watching.

It’s still LeBron to me. Some honourable mentions:

Lillard, Ja, Zion (though for Zion, at this time, it’s largely due to what we saw from him pre-regular season, and rightfully so).
