Who is going to be the best out of these three i feel they will be the best players in the NBA with in 4 years or so.
WOW this is hard ......... really hard to choose
dunno:confusedshrug: who would you pick Ikill?
1- durant
2- griffin
3- rose
but in 4 yrs time dwight cp3 and lbj will still be great players, most likely the top 3 imo
in 4 yrs time dwight will still only be 28, cp3 & lbj -29
1 - Durant
2/3 tie - Griffin/Rose
Griffin will never be a top 5 player in the league. He is Shawn Kemp 2.0 or Amare minus a jumpshot/free throw shooting with better rebounding.
Durant is clearly the best of these 3 and this thread is a joke

Blake Griffin to me has the most potential to be that big and athletic and to handle, and pass the ball like he does with a great work ethic too he's just such a unique player. Durants just a scorer and Rose is just an athletic point guard there is lots of those they might be the the best at that but still there is lots of those. The thing with Griffin tho he's so reckless when he plays he might get injured.

:wtf:
KD and Rose have incredible work ethic as well
[QUOTE=chips93]1- durant

I meant after 4 years so in 2014-2015 and i don't expect LBJ or cp3 to be top players chris Paul is a small guy they don't last too long and Lebron well he is going to have lot minutes and years on him by that time he already looks like he is declining athletically and most of his game is athleticism. Dwight Howard might be a top 3 player but theres a good chance Griffin Rose and Durant are better than him he also depends on his athleticism a lot.
[QUOTE=Willkill24]Durant the other 2 are garbage.[/QUOTE]
you should be ban for even saying that
[QUOTE=8BeastlyXOIAD]:wtf:

I know but what about on the court Griffin just hustles so much for a guy that good but its still really close Durant would be the safe pick but Griffin has the most potential to me.
[QUOTE=Willkill24]Durant the other 2 are garbage.[/QUOTE]
Most stars break out in there third year like Derrick Rose is now and Durant last year.

:confusedshrug: :confusedshrug:
they all have nasty potentials IMO
Blake in his prime can end up averaging 29/14/2 53FG%
D-Rose in his prime can end up averaging 29/4/9 49fg%
K.D. in his prime can end up averaging 34/9/3 49fg%
:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Future is bright KD next Kobe Drose next Wade Blake next Lebron
Why isn't John Wall in here? He's having one of the best rookie seasons of the decade.
[QUOTE=Ikill]Future is bright KD next Kobe Drose next Wade Blake next Lebron[/QUOTE]
:wtf: :wtf:
Kevin Durant next Iceman, Derrick next D-will mixed with Wade, Blake next Shawn Kemp

[QUOTE=Ikill]Yeah Beasley will most likely be the second best scorer after Durant and Westbrook will be in debates with Rose and Wall.[/QUOTE]

Just as good scorer better defender better passer better rebounder better teammate i'm saying just watch out for Jennings.

Amare didn't have a jump shot in his rookie year either not only that Griffin is a way better rebounder he's already one of the best in the NBA i could see him averaging 15 a game. Griffin is a better passer, ball handler, is stronger, and plays so much harder than Amare. You don't think a player averaging 21 and 12 in his rookie year will be a top 5 player.

I agree that neither will be as good as Durant, though I haven't seen much of Rose this year.
Blake's scoring and rebounding numbers are nice, but he'll have to learn to block more than half a shot per game and make an impact defensively before I'll consider him elite because I don't see him being a good enough scorer to be top 5 on just that and rebounding.
[QUOTE=Ikill]Dwight Howard might be a top 3 player but theres a good chance Griffin Rose and Durant are better than him he also depends on his athleticism a lot.[/QUOTE]
Where will Dwight's athleticism have gone in 3-4 years? The guy is extremely durable and he's in great shape. He'll still have a huge athletic advantage over just about any big man barring a major injury.
Plus, Dwight seems to have improved his skills a lot this season, give him a few more years and he could be even better. He's still only 25, most players peak around 27-28, sometimes a bit later.
It's the body control that makes Blake Griffin so amazing. People shouldn't compare him to anyone, because nobody at that size and athleticism has ever been able to control their body so well. Blake can do spinning reverse dunks and he's 250 pounds. Shawn Kemp can't touch this guys athletcism. He had the hops and the power but not the agility.

its his first 20 games. durants in his 4th season and his defense is still pretty terrible at times, and yet he's already putting up as good or better numbers.
Blake Griffin is extremely hard to score on. His defense is not something I would criticize just because he's not getting blocks.
[QUOTE=Svendiggity]Blake Griffin is extremely hard to score on. His defense is not something I would criticize just because he's not getting blocks.[/QUOTE]
His defense is better than statistics suggest, I agree. He's leading that team in defensive win shares right now. But that team is also allowing 104+ points a game, which is obviously not good... But people need not forget that blocks aren't everything, even PF's like Barkley and Malone were not really big-time shot blockers. Karl Malone in his MVP seasons averaged 0.6 BPG, and Barkley averaged just 1.0 BPG in his. Griffin needs to improve on playing the passing lanes though, disrupt more passes into the post. From what I've seen from him (assuming he continues to improve, gains experience), he could be more valuable than both Durant and Rose, IMO. And I'm a big Durant fan.
