Tier 1: Jokic

Tier 2: Steph/Embiid

Tier 3: Luka/Giannis/Tatum

Tier 4: Booker/SGA/LeBron/KD

Tier 5: Ant/Hali/AD/Maxey/Butler

The full top 50 is here

What do ya'll think? Personally I think Maxey in the top 15 is a huuuge overreaction to a 10 games stretch. Most didn't even have him top 40 in the offseason.

SGA top 10 is no longer an opinion, it’s a fact

[–] SmokyOtter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Booker underrated

[–] zobee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I know Ja is a dumbass but he should be higher

[–] No_Nefariousness6385@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey and Haliburton over Fox??? Lets calm down here.....

[–] dj26458@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

KOC loves to overreact. He said Christian Wood was the best player Luka ever played with after 1 game last year.

[–] Fun_Location4905@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maxey in any tier up here is outrageous. Also Ant is better than Bron right now

Keep sleeping on Sengun

[–] TDSeminoles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Switch Butler with Bam

[–] CornCob_Dildo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

#KOC definitely reading these comments.

[–] dpeters8158@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This feels more like a list he hopes to see age well, rather than a list of who is best right now.

Rabble rabble rabble

I respect your opinion regarding Maxey; I only ask that you let Maxey know.

[–] Naismythology@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

KOC is not a “serious” analyst. That’s not an insult. It’s just clear that he either plants his flag and won’t move, or else everything is super “prisoner of the moment” if he doesn’t already have an established take. He’s a piece in the basketball take-o-sphere, which is fine, but I don’t think he’d ever admit that.

[–] Fa1lenSpace@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Anything KOC should be disregarded just based on how he hyped Killian Hayes lmao

[–] Awesomeness4627@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Luka and Giannis to tier 2. Lebron to 3.

This is so reactive to the first couple weeks of the season lol. If we’re ranking players, shouldn’t we prioritize how they play in games that matter the most (I.e. the playoffs)? That’s where you find out who the true best players are.

In these last playoffs, we literally witnessed Embiid choke (yet again) and get outplayed by Tatum when it mattered.

We also witnessed Butler outplay Tatum AND Giannis in the playoffs. And not like it was the first time he crushed it in the playoffs either. He’s done this a handful of times in the past several years. How is he only tier 5? I get it that he doesn’t do it as consistently during the regular season as those other guys, but when it matters he’s at least as good as those guys.

Crazy we see this happen over and over again. People apparently value regular season stats over winning games with actual stakes on the line.

Tatum definitively outplayed Butler, the Heat just outplayed the rest of the Celtics and Tatum sprained his ankle in G7

[–] Surflover12@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lol this is recency biaa

[–] manbeqrpig@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It brings me joy that all the top comments aren’t saying Jokic is overrated

[–] KingVibrant@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

LeBron belongs in Tier 3, he’s still clearly at that level, when healthy. The fact that he just hasn’t gotten the benefit of the doubt since the Solomon Hill injury is beyond me.

[–] amr1115@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

tatum above lebron and kd 🤡🤡🤡

[–] Dddddddfried@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's crazy seeing Lebron at tier 4. I don't disagree with it, but after being a consensus 1 or 2 for a decade it still blows my mind

[–] spottedratfish@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wemby at the same tier or higher as Ja and Kyrie already is crazy

[–] takkovacs2021@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

KOC getting better at getting BS articles for clicks.

Also, I think is Ant is higher right now. Very impressed with the TWolves.

[–] delamerica93@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It cracks me up how Fox is always below Haliburton despite making the playoffs last year and being dominant in the playoffs when healthy. And being All-NBA in the West. NBA writers pick their favorites and since they're all fucking nerds they pick the same ones lol. Also, no I'm not a Hali hater I'm a huge fan
