    Anyone who doesn't pick LeBron is eitherA) A LiarorB) RetardedEasily LeBron. The only other guy that should be considered is Dwight Howard. He is slowly becoming the next Tim Duncan.

    No doubt I'd choose Lebron James. Shaq and Kobe are much older. After that Dwyane Wade and Amare Stoudmire

They were wrong then, they could be wrong now.</div>Im not saying hes not going to improve anymore although I do think he has reached his ceiling, however, LeBron has improved tremendously since he got in the league and he is much younger than him. Do you honestly see Kobe improving on what hes done this year?

    Lebron is the obvious answer for me. He is the best young player in the NBA. He can do everything but play defense and I guarentee he will get that soon.btw Im reading a book about Lebron right now

    No doubt in my mind, Lebron James. My next choices would have to be Carmelo Anthony, Yao Ming, or D-Wade.

    You guys are under estimating Arenas. He is an unbelievable scorer, hes a better passer than Kobe, top 5 in steals..And hes 24 years old..LeBron though is the OBVIOUS answer..Gilbert isnt really a retarded desicion.

    Nobody mentioned Steve Nash..The guy who came into Phenox last year and turned them around like noone would have ever expected. I'd take Kobe then I'd go with Nash for my second pick

    Gilbert Arenas. He has got amazing scoring skills. He plays with so much heart because of that whole getting no minutes at the beginning and now proving himself.

I don't think Lebron will have enough to win a championship. Lebron needs help around him.
