Geez, with all those #1s, and we still are an underdog in our own division.

I'm looking at the survey and Blake being tied for fourth best PF doesn't sit right with me. I don't consider LeBron a PF and I think Blake is better than Draymond.

I agree. LeBron's primary position is obviously not the 4. Blake has become underrated, which is fine. Hopefully that motivates him

Yeah, people just forget anything that didn't happen last month so it's like Blake is just some guy who doesn't play and punches people. I'm pretty sure he'll be crowned best PF in the game again soon enough, as soon as he strings a few games with the nice numbers he usually gets (at least until AD gets healthy and they remember he exists too).

Glad to see DJ so well considered, who'd have thought he'd be a 1st team all NBA player, an olympian, widely considered the best C in the game, the best interior defender and a rightful DPOY candidate. So much for all the people saying he made a mistake not going to Dallas last year

JJ 3rd best at moving without the ball? He should be number one easily.
