1. Best SF right now? LeBron James

2. Best SF in 5 years? I’ll say Durant at 1A and a declining LeBron at 1B.

3. Most underrated? Andre Iguodala or Luol Deng (they are ALWAYS on the trading block)

4. Overrated? I want to say Melo because he doesn’t always try, otherwise I’ll go Danny Granger

5. Best Young SF (2 yrs or less exp. in league)? Harrison Barnes

6. Best Rookie SF? Harrison Barnes

7. Most athletic? LeBron James 

8. Most skilled? Paul Pierce

9. Best leader? Paul Pierce

10. Best all time? Right now it’s Bird, but it’ll probably be LeBron when he’s finished.

 1.Best SF right now?LeBron

2.Best SF in 5 years?Durant

3.Underrated?Luol Deng

4.Overrated?Batum(just because of the huge contract he is about to get …what he done to get that contract?)

5.Best young?Harrison Barnes

6.Rookie? Barnes

7.Athletic?LeBron

8.Peirce

9.Best leader?LeBron (just because the way he led the heat to the finals even with the Bosh injuries and Wade not even close to playing his best basketball)

10.Best all time?(I’m guessing 3)So LeBron ,Bird and Durant

[BasterdInABasketParticipant]

1. Best SF right now? James- Best player.

2. Best SF in 5 years? James- His athleticism might diminish somewhat but still only 32 in 5 yrs

3. Most underrated? Wilson Chandler- China & injuries hurt him but hell bounce back big time

4. Overrated? Carmelo Anthony- He does need help in NY but I hate watching him play

5. Best Young SF (2 yrs or less exp. in league)? MKG- Parsons & Leonard just behind

6. Best Rookie SF? MKG- I like Barnes too but MKG will be special

7. Most athletic? James- Easy

8. Most skilled? James- Court vision, finishing, post game

9. Best leader? James- He is the leader of the best team in the world right now

10. Best All-Time? James- This is so tough. I want to say Bird with everything he did but James took it to whole new level this past year. In a couple years there wont be a doubt in my mind he’s #1.

[HaleParticipant]

 While I agree LeBron will still be very very good in 5 years, he’ll be a really old 32 with wear and tear. These guys who come straight out of high school start declining quite a bit earlier. Look at Kobe, he’s only 33 but his body feels like it’s 38 probably. LeBron will also be about a 14 year pro in 5 seasons.

[mgreener_34Participant]

 1. Best SF right now? LeBron, the finals proved that

2. Best SF in 5 years? Durant, he will be a monster once he clamps down on D

3. Most underrated? Iggy, because he plays both ends of the floor. Gay has to be up there too 

4. Overrated? Metta World Peace/Ron Artest

5. Best Young SF (2 yrs or less exp. in league)? MKG

6. Best Rookie SF? MKG, he’s going to be a beast one day 

7. Most athletic? LeBron

8. Most skilled? Pierce, he can literally do everything; even at this age

9. Best leader? Pierce, he puts teams on his back, and has never given up on his team. always wants the ball at the end of games 

10. Best all time? Larry Bird. The guy could give you 30 and 10 on 50/40/90 while being a great passer. On on the clutchest players of all time

 I’m pretty sure Josh smith is a PF. Maybe in his younger years he could play the 3, but he’s bulked up a lot since then and would be way to slow to play small forward

[monkey23Participant]

Anybody else out there think Rudy Gay has a chance to be the #1 SF in 5 years if Durant somehow goes out with a serious injury (a la Grant Hill)? I hope he doesn’t because he’s a beast, but just sayin. Gay will still be young (30 years old) and still has tons of untapped potential!

[GrandmamaParticipant]

No

[monkey23Participant]

How about Jabari Parker? Why no love for him in 5 years. Or Melo? Once Melo learns to play defense he’ll be an UNSTOPPABLE BEAST!!!! 

I’m just wondering who would be #1 if Durant is injured in 5 years or if he beefs up and starts playing power forward.

[HOops1562Participant]

Jabari is overhyped …. SI called him "the best high school player since Lebron James" …. no way is he the next Lebron  

[HaleParticipant]

Melo has had 9 years to learn to play D. 

[HOops1562Participant]

 1. Best SF right now? : Lebron no questions 

2. Best SF in 5 years? Durant cause Lebron is 32 by then 

3. Most underrated? Deng

4. Overrated? Melo 

5. Best Young SF (2 yrs or less exp. in league)? Leonard 

6. Best Rookie SF? Barnes is the most polished right now but MKG will be the better pro

8. Most skilled? Lebron 

9. Best leader? Lebron

10 Best of All Time? : Larry Bird but Lebron in 2-3 years will take this easy

[mgreener_34Participant]

 When did LeBron become a great leader? He quit on his team in Cleveland, and folded under pressure until he got to Miami. I get it, he’s the best SF in the game, but one year doesn’t all of a sudden make you the best leader at your position. 

[HOops1562Participant]

 Well this year i thought he was a great leader … Far cry from the 2011 finals when he was cracking jokes about dirk and acting immature after losing the finals … This year he looked more focused on finishing the finals … I forgot which player but a player on the heat was celebrating during game 5 and Lebron shut him up telling him there was 1 more quarter left …  I think this year he showed good leadership sure in his Cleveland days it was hard to be a leader when your only 18 and management couldn’t provide you with enough pieces to win 

[blood]

 did Paul Pierce became more skilled than LeBron ?

[aamir543Participant]

1. Best SF right now?- Lebron

2. Best SF in 5 years?- I’ll say Durant to give him some props, but either way it’ll be neck and neck even in 5 years

4. Overrated?- Nic Batum

5. Best Young SF (2 yrs or less exp. in league)?- MKG

6. Best Rookie SF?- MKG

7. Most athletic?- Lebron

8. Most skilled?- Durant
