followed by kevin love, blake griffin, chris paul, carmelo anthony, lamarcus Aldridge, goran dragic in that order to round out the top 10 for right now

Post by: Chamillitary Click on February 12, 2014, 06:49:40 PM: Durant is the MVP at the moment, hands down.

Paul George has taken a serious slide in the last ten games; put up more than 20 once in the last ten. C'mon, son.

Curry only ranks higher in fantasy because there's 3PT made, 3PT % & FT%...lol.

LeBron has a five point higher PER than Curry, an eight point higher PER than George & a better True Shooting percentage than both of them.

I wouldn't say LeBron has "regressed" because that inclines that he is only going to get worse. I think LeBron is just doing what any repeat Champion, MVP, threepeat Finals appearance guy does...realize none of it matters until April-May-June & take it slow.

But with all this "KD >>>>" talk, don't be shocked to see him go on an absolute tear right now.

Post by: Sccit on February 12, 2014, 07:44:52 PM: you're actually right.. paul george is in a slump, and while he started off the season better than lebron, he hasnt been playing better in the last 10.....i still like curry better than lebron on the season for what he's done with that warriors team....considering the recent slump of paul george:

kd>curry>lebron>george on the year

but maybe lebron does the opposite this year and steps his game up in the playoffs, who knows?
