Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 2181786, member: 2844"] K Leonard is getting better and better - he is the future #1 superstar in the NBA - barring injury I saw it when he was at SDSU but his mid game and defense has improved so much I just love how he plays I am a huge Celtics fan and despised the Lakers for years (I almost feel sorry for them now!) but I will respectfully disagree with tzzAndrew - I think Kobe is/was a top 5 at his position but not top 5 player in NBA history There are too many "top 5" quality players to narrow it down to 5 - there are a lot of 5 top centers and guards each having unique qualities that make them who they are/were I would rather rate top 5 by position - LeBron, as much as I don't care for him, is definitely a top 5 in the forward positions but he is not better than MJ nor is he better than L Bird but they have/had different games - that's what makes it so hard to name top 5 talent If IT kept this pace for 5 or more years he will be in some conversations BUT needs to work on his D but this year is spellbinding [/QUOTE]
