Kawhi not up for consideration?

Sure, it's just hard to dictate truly how good he is at this point, we could be overrating him or underrating him since don't truly know what we would get from Kawhi this moment.

CP3 comfortably. Butler and the question marks surrounding Kawhi are 7/8 for me.

I have Giannis 6 and Kawhi 7. Going into this season Giannis is less of a question mark and still has room to improve. At 100% healthy Kawhi is the better player, but I don't know if he's 100%.

Kawhi just missed a full year, cp is one extra year removed from his peak and giannis is one year closer. Easy choice for me.

Pretty crazy to think that CP3 is ahead of Westbrook at this point in his career.

It is a mistake to put Kawhi at 6th. He should be 4th.

Why can't we discuss those players that have already been named? Has there already been a vote to put AD over Harden?

Hard to value Kawhi since he's been basically out all year.. If he returns 100% he's probably the 2nd or 3rd best player in the league.

Yes, there was a poll on it. Although seemed to go pretty quick.

Anyways, CP3 is my vote here.

Kawhi is the last of the top tier: the "superstar" tier. This is him.

Yes, there has. Because then it becomes more about the others then about moving forward since there was already a thread about it.

We weren't really getting enough votes I felt like, but I'll keep this one open for a little longer. Usually if the poll is lopsided in the favor of a player I move on.

For some reason I didn't see a few of the previous polls. But I definitely want to participate.
