                    @notsmithboys1 I can see that. all pretty close in that 6-11 range for centers. I also could’ve included Christian Wood

                        Ben Simmons is absolutely a top 10 pg. And I don’t think trae young is the 4th best pg.

                        That’s all I gotta say

                            @zackdesenfants he was all nba third team last year and second in DPOY this year. He’s the best defender in the nba in my opinion.

                            He should be 6th or 7th

                                    @errolzzz I need to see Randle do what he did this year again. If he does, He will be ahead of him, plus had a shaky playoff

                                                          Where are you putting a healthy Klay?

                                                          id put a healthy clay at the 10 spot for shooting guards, and kick caris levert off the list

                                                            I'd probably switch Harden and Kyrie's positions at this point

                                                              the shooting guard position is arguably the most stacked poison in the nba right now, i wouldn’t put him over harden or beal

                                                                                @kmart you could definitely switch him and Wiggins, but I can’t put him over MPJ.

                                                                                What did MPJ do last year that Derozan didn’t?
