SF 3-Year Peaks

LeBron is consensus #1 and Bird likely a consensus #2 (maybe I'm being presumptuous?)

The next batch of All-Time SFS includes:
Kevin Durant, Julius Erving, Kawhi Leonard, Rick Barry, Elgin Baylor

The question is pretty straight forward: How do you rank those guys in terms of 3-year peak? Follow-up, if you think the list should be altered, what names should be added to or removed from the conversation?

Do the 3 years need to be consecutive?

I imagine there are some folks that would support KD/maybe Kawhi over Bird, but I'm with you on Bird at #2.

Kawhi is (probably) the best when he can play, but considering health I'd go with KD of these guys. My actual pick for #3 3-year SF peak is Tatum.

DrJ with a clear argument for the spot if you're high on the ABA (I'm currently not very high).

Don't see strong cases for Baylor/Barry here.
