On his best day probably tier 3 but usually probably 4-5

But to be quite honest, LeBron is tier 3

______________


Tier 1: Jordan
Tier 2: Magic, Bird, Kareem
Tier 3: Hakeem, Shaq, LeBron, Kobe, Duncan
Tier 4: Durant, Curry, Dirk, Barkley, Malone, Robinson, Wade
__________
This is 15 players.

Tier 5: Nash, Stockton, Garnett, Thomas........ etcetc.


______________


I think Kawhi is tier 5-6. Currently I'd say 6 but a good chance becoming 5 soon.

I saw them play. At the time it was just something else. Part of it has to do with my age. It's never objective. I just wanted to give an opinion, not the 'truth'.

He is top 75 all time at this point.

Kawhi has only had a couple of elite years so far :confusedshrug:

This is true, for me it's:

MJ
Bird
Magic
Kareem
Kobe/LeBron/Wilt/Russell (these you can flip a coin or rank them however you like using whatever agenda fits)

Then:
Shaq
Hakeem

However in regards to the CORRECTED image, LeBron falls down to Tier 3 simply because there's too many people lumped together in Tier 2 and 3.
No Duncan?

No Duncan?

After Hakeem and Shaq? Probably.

Would you take Duncan over those two? I wouldn't.... and I don't even like Shaq.

Reminder that if Jordan did what LeBron did in the 2010 off season and join with the 2nd and 4th highest PER in the league he would have joined up with Shaquille O

Peak wise Duncan was definitely a level below those two, although he's not THAT far off in '03 which was some GOAT level shit

Starting a team, I would still take both over Duncan, but I'd at least consider taking Duncan over Shaq due to being a significantly better teammate and much more loyal player

Lebron is too flawed to be put in the same tier as Jordan. And I'm a Lebron fan.

Okay but I am a Jordan fan and he too had his flaws. No player is perfect we can pick on any player we choose. LeBron sucks at free throws and. Jordan sucks at threes. Curry sucks at passing.

I still cringe whenever I see LeBron get grouped with Kobe, or even Hakeem, Shaq... The disrespeck I can't.

Yeah except Jordan wasn't a bitch. LeBron on the other hand........

You mean yes, except Wade/Bosh aren't Hakeem/Shaq, lol.

Yeah..he's obviously a tier below them.

Shaq never had a bad Finals performance and is 4/6 (thanks to Kobe but still, he DID show up)
Hakeem actually took a bunch of garbage and didn't just lead them to the Finals but won the damn thing and made bigger clutch plays Lebron ever will, DPOY, MVP FMVP same season.
Kobe won 5/7 and beat the teams Lebron routinely choked against and gave duncan a 1 - 4 spanking in the Playoffs in the 2000s and beat more 50+ win teams than anyone else. We had a nation-wide poll and Kobe came out on top 60% to 40, not even close.

Lebron has a losing record in the Finals and who has he beat routinely? The Demar Derozan Raptors? Paul George Pacers? Boston Celtics when they weren't even winning 50 games anymore? Bulls that one year?

Kobe stopped a dynasty FOUR times. The GOAT coach, 20+ years of making the Playoffs etc, 4 wins to 1 loss coming off a 3-peat..

3 rings in 9 attempts with 2 superteams in the weak east qualifies you for Tier 1 nowadays?


Damn, Tier 1 should contain at least 10 players then :eek:

Id say kareem is tier one with bron and mj. Kawhi is tier 3, i put him on equal footing with kobe legacy wise if he wins it all this year.

Kawhi hasn't played nearly long enough, at the level he is now, to be ranked in one of these tiers, I don't care how good he *currently* is. This dude has had, what, 2 true superstar seasons( 2017 and 2019), was injured most of 2018, and what? I'm supposed to be comparing him against who? D-Wade? Isiah? Gary Payton? The body of work isn't there yet. Some of you guys are too caught in the moment.

Series aint over yet. His first time to actually lead a team to the finals.

How about he win a season mvp first?

Love Kawhi and his emotionless personality but the hype of him being talk as one of the goat already is just absurd :facepalm :banghead:
