[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)
I will post a new thread for each of the top 10.
Obvious votes attempting to derail poll with unworthy players will be disregarded
Votes with obvious misunderstanding of poll will be disregarded

Garnett

[BigKAT]

Kevin Durant

[Klay 3D]

KD vs Wade

32/7/6 vs 30/8/5 (same amount of points per 100 possessions)
2 steals/blocks vs 3.5
29.8 PER vs 30.2 PER

I'm going to give a very slight edge to Wade because of defense. If you prefer efficiency, KD.

So Wade.

Wade.

Going Garnett. This should be Garnett pretty easily honestly. Wade carried the Heat well but they were a 1st round exit and Durant had Westbrook for half a year and a nice 3rd option in ibaka. Garnett had Cassell and not much else. Those 2 are in the tmac and kobe tier peak wise. Garnett's peak is Duncan level and top 10 all time.

How do you forget Sprewell who averaged 20/4/4 in the entire playoffs?
Wally S..biak who averaged 18ppg the previous 2 years.

Way better roster than the 2009 Heat which James Jones averaged the most minutes per game in the playoffs after Wade and Jermaine O'neal only pulling down like 4 rebounds per game.

2004 Wolves also had more success than the 2009 Heat though. You may have a point if the Heat performed as well as the Wolves, but KG actually led them somewhere meaningful.

My vote is for KG.

Well, you do need better teammates to make a deeper run. I rather have 3 players who is able to put up near 20ppg on any given day than 2 starting rookies and a washed up center who grabs 4-5 rebounds.

How do you argue against a 2006 Wade averaging 27/7/6 in the regular season and like near 30ppg in the playoffs? Not to mention a ring on top of that...
