Buddy and I were talking about this, specifically LeBron. No doubt he’s a top-30 player. But given his age, we were debating whether or not he’d be a first-round pick in a league-wide redraft. Which then led to a wider conversation about how you would approach team building if all NBA players were made available.
Probably top 5. There’s like 5 players who are changing teams from contender to just good
Counterpoints are guys like Jimmy, KD and LeBron. Not consensus Top 5, but you can certainly feel like you’ve got a shot if they’re your best guy (with a reasonably strong supporting cast)
