Obviously there will be players that come along that could be something special but given the players that currently ply their trade in the NBA now, who would you take if you were looking to win a championship 5 years from now?

PG - Russell Westbrook. His finals performance for the Thunder against the Heat plus the fact an ACL injury could massively impact rose were my deciding factors. I hope Rose comes back healthy but given his high octane daredevil style of play I sadly believe it's going to be a short lived career for the league's MVP. Rubio is also one to watch obviously along with Kyrie.

SG - Paul George. I like my Shooting Guards to be able to Shoot and Guard, the clue is in the title. At 22 and with the ceiling this guy has he's going to be the best SG in the NBA in 5 years without a doubt in my mind.

SF - Kevin Durant. I want the most deadly finisher at SF and with Melo and James probably on the tail end of their careers you'd think that Durant will be peaking in his. One to watch though? Danilo Gallinari, the man improves by the game.

PF - Kevin Love. It's a no brainer. Already the best at 24 and by some distance he'll only be better in 5 years.

C - DeMarcus Cousins - his ceiling is unreal and his attitude seems to be improving.

That's me. Who you got?

All NBA players should tear their ACLs.

Man... I'm not fast enough, or quick.. I know-- I'll tear my ACL. I'll get better.

I corrected your grammar purely because you called me a fool.

But yeah, I can totally understand the connection between the amount of friends you have and the amount of grammar you correct...?

Bottom line: D-rose isn't going to get BETTER from his ACL tear.

There is a connection you sit on the internet all day correcting peoples grammar and you have no friends.

and bottom line Derrick Rose is going to get better from his ACL injury. He isn't going to lose his explosiveness (he will still be more explosive than Rondo) and his jumpshot is going to get way more consistent (his only weakness). So explain how he won't get better?

Did I not just say that I corrected your poor grammar simply because you insulted my intelligence? Is that not ironic? I do not "sit on the internet all day correcting peoples grammar". I corrected you once, calm it down. But yeah, I'm sure you know how many friends I have.

Hey, there-- I can make random crap up too.

"and bottom line Derrick Rose is going to get worse from his ACL injury. He is going to lose his explosiveness (he will be less explosive than Rondo) and his jumpshot is going to get way more inconsistent. So explain how he won't get worse?"

Dude, you are just saying what you want to say without any facts. You are literally making crap up. This is my last reply to you, unless you happen to muster up something even worth quoting back again.
