I'm curious here too. Where do you guys rank these three PFs? You can take it any way you want to. Best player, Most likely to win, most dominant.. whatever. Just let me know how you rank these three players.

KG because of defense and versatility.

Naysayers will play the "his teams struggled when he was the lead guy" card, but he was never meant to be the 1A frontline scoring option. His best role is as the Bam/Giannis next to some greedy shooters and scorers. Once he got that role with Boston, he won a title.

I know my all-time 5 is Curry, MJ, and LeBron in the 1-3 spot. The 5 spot is tricky because I could see Wilt, Shaq, or Kareem all being the pick there. When I think about 4 though, my mind drifts to Garnett because of his athleticism, defense, and versatility. More switchable than Duncan. More offensive than Rodman. Better defender than Malone or Barkley. I didn't watch b-ball before the 90s, but he's my all-time PF based on the players I've actually watched in their prime.
