The main reason why Media chose the Mavs was because they said Luka was the best player on the court and completely ignored that Celtics had a far superior team. Now they are questioning if he's top 5 . 🤣🤣🤣

[rickyr.]

This team doesn't win without Jrue and Derrick White

[Sam-jxtv]

As a Celtics fan I'll say both of them are top 15. It's a stacked league so there is no shame in that.

[packetraiin]

Luka at 6? After that playoff run? Lady is on crack

[donmoore]

Stephen a still putting kd in the top 5 is hilarious

[greekfreak]

So glad we can finally forget about that 08 ring those Celtics been draggin since then 😭

[breonmitchell]

Jaylen brown definition of role model Youngest ever teach at Harvard his foundation is amazing stuff like that save kids lives more focus need be on that very important

[Pasta-_-]

It’s 2024 KD is NOT a top 5 player anymore…

[qkvlljr]

There are arguably 10 dudes better than kd at this point 😂

[PrinceOfTheMid]

There’s finna be a whole lot of nasty takes this summer😂

I could make the argument for JT at 5th. First team all NBA for the past couple of years, gets it done on both ends, and just won a championship. His numbers don't jump out like the other top 5 guys because of the way his team is structured but let's not forget he averaged 30 just last year. In no particular order id say it's Giannis, Jokic, Luka, Embiid, then Tatum. Guys like Bron, KD, and Steph will always be great but they aren't in a position where they're competing for championships anymore.

[drewmeyer]

They’re definitely the best duo now. There’s not 10 players better than Brown. The fact that Haliburton got all nba over Brown is crazy.

[terrordoszucas]

Stephen A is ridiculous.
Always mentioning Kevin “bleeping” Durant.

[TheRobversion]

bottomline here is people should value defense more. offense is weighted so drastically but its defense that actually leads to winning. the strength of the Js is defense.

[kevinmorganjr]

It’s crazy, Kobe & Bron get criticized for having 2 all star caliber players next to them and winning but now we’re just gonna accept this stacked roster. I’m still curious to what they would’ve done against a healthy East or without Jrue or White

[chrisdiggs]

I know Ja Morant printing a receipt out for this too

[vatv]

Even after winning a title Tatum and Brown are disrespected

[Heybheyhey]

This group really should get at least 1 more ring 💍 especially if Porzingis can be healthy for the playoffs.

[Dan_Boston]

They’re young & talented. Tatum has been in the ECF 5 of his 7 yrs in the league. Glad they kept these two together 🍀

[dylansimmons]

“He’s a champion so I gotta put him top5” pretty much sums up Stephen a reporting career
