ISH Selects Top 10 Current Players Peaks (2016 Edition): #1 Peak

[Out_In_Utah]

Rules:

24 hours to vote.
1 vote per poster.
Make it clear who you are casting your vote for.
Peak = 1 season + corresponding playoff (i.e., player A's peak lasting 2 years longer than player B's is irrelevant)
You do not need to specify which year (e.g., you can just say who the player is you are voting for)
Current = Was on a roster in 2015-16 and has not announced their retirement
I will post a new thread for each of the top 10.

My vote for #1 peak of current players:
LeBron James

LeBron.

And LOL and the grasping at clearly comical straws folks are trying to grab to avoid saying anyone else.

I just don't know which incredible year to choose. 2012?

In no order...
2016 Curry
2003 Duncan
2004 Garnett
2006 DWade
2006/11 Dirk
2008 CP3
2014 KD
2009 D12

I'm sure I'm leaving someone out.

Duncan retired. For some reason, I was thinking Garnett retired, but I guess he hasn't. He really should though.

Rose and Westbrook are some worth considering.

[NBAGOAT]

excellent idea. I'm going with Lebron at 1. Not sure about kg 04 vs curry 16 for 2 but leaning curry for now. Guys like Wade, KD, Dirk, and CP3 will be locks for top 10 too so going be interested to see what order it turns out.

[Mr Feeny]

It's lebron and by quite a margin in my opinion.

[ScalsFan21]

The #2 debate is a great argument here IMO so hopefully you keep this thread going, but yeah for #1 definitely LeBron.
