| Who is the best of our time? |
To make it into the NBA draft is to set yourself apart as a truly exceptional basketball player, the pride of your home-town, your state and your family. To be counted as one of the very best players in the NBA is to stand as one of the very greatest basketball players on the face of the Earth. The five men who have made this list are true giants of the game, with talent, skill and athleticism that set them apart from the highly competitive field in one of the world’s most popular sports. Without further ado, here are our top five players currently competing in the NBA:
5. Tony Parker, San Antonio Spurs
Superstar point guard Tony Parker has it all, with a potent mix of red hot talent and ever increasing experience. He helped the Spurs to three NBA titles in 2003, 2005 and 2007, and continues to utilise his pace and impressive field goal percentage to the significant benefit of his team.
4. Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City Thunder
Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook is a three time All Star with a level of athleticism that continually confounds fans, team-mates, commentators and opponents alike. No one in the NBA attacks the basket as doggedly as Westbrook, and it shows - over his first five seasons he contributed an average of 19.9 points per game.
3. Chris Paul, Los Angeles Clippers
Six-times All-Star and two-times Olympic Gold medallist Chris Paul is a giant force in world basketball. Having achieved the honour of being NBA steals leader on five separate occasions, this player can completely change the flow of a game like no other. Perhaps the most likely player in The NBA to mess up your dafabet sports predictions with one clever sweep of his arm.
2. Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder
Rangy Oklahoma forward Kevin Durant represents the perfect combination of physical stats and incredible skill. A four time All Star and three time NBA scoring champion, they don’t come very much better than Durant...
1. LeBron James, Miami Heat
One player who just might have the beating of Durant is The King of the NBA LeBron James. A worldwide sporting superstar, James has spear-headed the past two championship triumphs of the Miami Heat. At the moment, this player is quite simply the leader of the pack.
