If he ages drastically, and forgets how to play defense. Then, yes. Otherwise, nope.

Even if LBJ ages, his post up game SHOULD be very efficient by that point. I don't see him declining for a while.

Davis has a chance, but still won't be considered the best, unless he leads his team to 50 + win seasons at least twice.

24? Wiggins will just be turning 20 in 3 years.

I see Rose coming back strong and going up against KD and LeBron for best player in the league in the next few years.

Can Durant average 30 pt triple doublesque numbers while being a 1st all-defensive/dpoy type of defender that can play & guard up to 5 positions... while supposedly winning MVP/FMVP/Championship aswell?

There is your answer.. :)

Sure if he can improve every part of his game other than shooting, and rebounding, and LeBron declines in his prime.
