On this blog it seems like some folks here think guys like Crowder should be on this list.  Behold some of the nonsense from another thread.

Quote
Let me point out a few things: Jae Crowder played just as well as Gordon Hayward offensively this year, and much better defensively.

Beyond Absurd!

It's a guard dominated league that also promotes shooters and ball handlers and inhibits the impact of big men. If we are talking about current impact and not potential, it is:

1. Kevin Durant
2. Lebron James
3. Russell Westbrook
4. James Harden
5. Stehp Curry
6. John Wall
7. Kwahi Leonard
8. Kyrie Irving
8. Chris Paul
9. Paul George
10. Klay Thompson

Chris Paul?

No Chris Paul in my top 10. That ship has sailed. I owned him in my fantasy league and I knew what he did on a daily basis. He is overrated now IMO.

Maybe it's because of how he shut down Bradley for the whole series in the ECFs.

TP for tabulating this!

And I think this a pretty spot on top 10.  I had all 10, albeit in a bit different order.
