I have Towns at 13 and Dlo at 25. Wolves future looking bright! We have two legit all star caliber players on our roster for the next 4 seasons. Now we need the correct role players to surround them with.

I'd add Trae Young and remove Porzingis.

Top 25....at what exactly? Fantasy stats? Winning games? Whining? Tweeting? I need clarification. Lots of losers on that list, IMO.

Putting DLO in the tier with Butler and right behind him is laughable also.

Where is Zion on this list?

This list also shows me how little talent is in the league today than in previous gens.

I mean how many of those guys will be all time greats? Very few imo.

I don’t think Zion is a top 25 player yet,

This is not which guys are the best 25 to build for the future, it’s combination of the current most skilled, winning etc.

Trae young is supremely talented and shown lots of flash but I think the unicorn has shown more so far and also rebounding from his acl surgery. You starting to regain his former form and shown in the game ca the Wolves where he was a monster on both sides of the ball.

Towns is an all nba player and two time all star. He was having a hell of a start of the season before the fight with Embiid threw his game off plus this injured season.

Towns hasn't done anything. Are you serious with the "Embiid fight threw his game off?" :lol:

Sounds like you are joking with that.

Fade, who generally is a nutcase, isn't totally wrong this time.

If you dont see a difference in KAT on the court between pre-fight and post-fight you havent been watching the games. That fight took his soul. Hopefully having his BFF Jill on the team will bring his smile back, along with his game. Had he kept up his play from before the fight all season, and not gotten hurt, the team is in playoff contention and people are talking about him as a darkhorse MVP candidate.

Good list, but Trae Young needs to be on here. He's an All-Star this year and is arguably the best shooter in the NBA.

My whole beef with ranking someone like Gobert that high is, swap him and butler off Miami. Jimmy does way more for that squad that than Gobert could. If Gobert is your best player, how far you really going.

Are you kidding me? That fight was his 4th game of the year.

Playoff contention? Pretty sure we were about 500. at the time. And nobody knows exactly when he got hurt, so he was collecting L's until he finally decided to rest. Not all his fault, but he shares some of the blame.
I agree he should be in the top 25, but lets not put him too high on that list until he starts putting up wins to go along with his stats. Right now, it seems as he's a better version of KLove.
And if that fight took his "soul," then Butler may be right about him being soft.

Wolves were 3-0 at the time of the fight.

Seriously, go back and watch his demeanor before the fight. He was having fun, smiling, air grinding, and playing insane basketball. After the fight, he went back to being the same whiny turd he was under Thibs.
