For this year, not long term. Kawhi is not on LeBron's level yet, but he could get there. That game against Memphis, wow. Clutch shot after clutch shot. And he was dominating the Warriors.

KD reclaimed his spot as LeBron's rival after the injuries and shortcomings the past few years. But I think most people are still picking LeBron first.

Yes, for this year I would take 26 - year old Leonard or 28 - year old (I believe) Durant over soon to be 33 year old LeBron. Kawhi is definitely on Durant and LeBron's level.

He's dragged an aging team to 67 and 61 wins, won back - to - back DPOY awards, top 3 in MVP voting two years in a row and somehow "still ain't on LeBron's level?" Okay, sure.....

Next you'll say he's just a "system player" or that Paul George and Jimmy Butler are as good as him.

Re: NBA 2K18 Top 10 Small Forwards

I like these ratings for the most part. Wiggins was by definition the "worse defensive player" in the NBA last year so his rating to me should be a little lower. Harrison Barnes should be a little higher as well. As for melo, I don't see him being an 84 and Hayward being a 88. I understand he was much more efficient and most likely better defense but I don't see the 4 point difference. However, if the ratings for overalls uses the same formula as last year then all these ratings would depend heavily on the "Intangibles" rating. For example, last year I believe Melos shooting ratings were like 90 mid range standing and 87 moving but his intangibles was a 64 and his overall rating was an 84, I tweaked the intangibles rating and ONLY the intangibles rating to a 80 and melo overall went up to 87. If this still
Holds true then the Indivudual ratings mean muchhh more than the overall ratings.

Side note this is most definitely the best bron has looked. Wow. They may have been holding back other years for these type of improvements.

I try to watch as much Giannis as I can, which is a good amount with league pass and youtube (not a Bucks fan).

When the 91 rating came out, I thought that was fair. But after seeing all of the other ratings in the game so far, I'd say they have him too low.

Like some of you have already posted, I'm surprised by the refinement of player models/scans... I really hope LBJ and Russ' final builds look like what they've released today.*

Would be nice if we could get confirmation on this being the case. Because the LeBron player model is larger than those early screens that were released. His bodytype looks to be nearly perfect in terms of his actual build and his facial likeness is almost photo realistic and makes the 2k17 LeBron, which didn't look bad, look foolish in comparison.

No inside information here but I'm fairly certain the most recent updates are going to be what we get, lol
