    Carmelo is just Glenn Robinson 2.0, been saying it for years

      To me Durant is the 4th best player in the league.

      My List
      1. Lebron
      2. Kobe
      3. Wade
      4. Durant

        Big dog was pretty much only a mid-range shooter. He didn't have the handle that Melo does nor did he ever attack the bucket like Melo. Melo has a nasty face-up game but he attacks the bucket.

        Man I'm getting old. I remember Big Dog's JR yr at Purdue. 30 a night was a given.

          I would put Dwight Howard at #2 and then move everybody else down.

              Yeah, Melo is a way more complete offensive player than Glennifer ever was.

                  Yeah, honestly I'm still struggling with putting LBJ ahead of Kobe just yet but I wouldn't argue that. Dwight doesn't belong ahead of any of these guys besides maybe Durant.

                    I'll never understand people who say that.

                    Anyways, I think Durant is a top 10 player, and once (when) he proves himself in the playoffs, then I'll move him up the ranks.

                      Well, Durant just won the scoring title (barring a miracle) if that means anything to anybody...

                        Durant isn't better than Lebron but I'm happy he is on my team.

                        Quite honestly, I'm thrilled with this season for the Thunder. I thought we "might" flirt with .500 this year. A winning season would have been more than I expected. Now OKC is in the playoffs. I'm quite pleased even with the 8th seed.

                        I expect the OKC/LA series to go no more than 5 games. Maybe we get lucky and steal one at home.

                        At any rate, I love the progress I have seen from this team. The core of our team is all under 23 years of age. The future is bright and Durant and a great piece to build around.

                          If you put LBJ on the Lakers and took off Kobe, I'm not sure any series would go past 6 games, hell I'd say even 5 games.

                            First, I'll repeat, I wouldn't argue against Lebron. I think I put him at #1 right now too, but it's definitely not a sure fire lock for me. It seems apparent that Lebron is good enough to lead a team to the championship but he hasn't done it yet. His shooting is also much improved but I'm not sure I'd believe he hits a clutch "jump" shot as frequently as Kobe, and he still needs to get better on the line and both of those things are important for winning it all.

                            In a game of 1 on 1 I'd take Lebron every time but just not sure about overall just yet. But I know all the reasons why someone might put him at the top.

                              At 21, he's won the scoring title.

                              That has to be some sort of record?

                              Congrats to Durant, but LBJ could have won if he really wanted to
