Who's the best player (that is actively playing) in the NBA?

Question

You can only pick one..

And the player cannot be retired, but actively playing in the NBA

Answer 1

from a pure talent perspective, hate to say it, but Bryant. From a team perspective Duncan.  

Answer 2

Three years ago I could've said Wade...maybe he's back.  But right now, it's gotta be Kobe.  Wade did stop Kobe and whipped him when they're teams played.  LeBron is good, but...there's something missing.  

Answer 3

bryant

Answer 4

dwyane wade

Answer 5

I'm going to have to say Kobe Bryant. He's basically the closest player to Jordan you'll ever see and we all know Jordan was the best ever. In my eyes, he's a mini Michael Jordan. And this is coming from someone that doesn't really like Kobe.

Answer 6

Thats easy... LBJ... Lebron took the celtics to a very close 7 game series...and almost won...Kobe, didnt even come close to winning and kobe had lamar odom and pau gasol on his team (who are both all stars) while lebron has who? Im waiting.....oh yea, Damon jones....should I even mention taking his team to the championship against the spurs? even though he got swept, which was because the spurs sent 4 guys at him and none of his teammates could make shots, Kobe would have never made it to the championship game by himself... When shaq left, if pau gasol didnt come to the lakers, I doubt they would have made it out of the first round... So yea, Lebron is easily the best player...and if you're a stats person, go look at his stats...They're off the charts...Last I heard only MJ and Oscar Robertson or Magic Johnson averaged what he averages j ust about every year...and he's still only 23

Answer 7

It's got to be Kobe Bryant.Trust me I'm an NBA true fan!

And he's the closest person to Micheal Jordan and I think he got some skills From Micheal jordan as well.

Answer 9

Kobe Bryant

@D-ROCK

Taking the Celtics to game 7 is NOTHING.  Ray Allen didnt get his shooting touches until the piston series.  And Lebron only got to the finals through a very weak conference at the time. Yet he GOT SWEEP by the spurs okay. SWEEP, nothing impressive.

PAu gasol and Odom all stars? Lol. Only Pau is an all star, and only been to it ONCE, Lamar Odom is INCONSISTENT AND NO WHERE NEAR ALL STAR.  Kobe DID NOT choke the finals, Pau and Lamar did. Oh, and LeBron not having Stars around him?

Big Z- All Star

Ben Wallace - All Star

Wally Sczerbiak - All Star

3 All stars lol...  How can you not win with that.  Lebron doesnt make anyone better because he demands the ball WAY too much.  Statistics shows.

Lebron is talented but does not know how to utilize his talent correctly right now

Answer 10

Dwight Howard.
