    You know the top 2 are kobe and lebron?????? What?????

    I don't think so...CP3 is the best player in the league right now. Quit joining the freakin bandwagon just because lebron is on national tv every other night. Chris Paul just guided his team to a dominant victory over the Mavs in round 1. He had 25 pts, 15 assists, and 11 rebs. in the last game of the series. He's putting up trible doubles and he's only six feet tall.

    The best PLAYER should be the one that wins games and makes his teammates better. Chris Paul is a legit baller and focuses his attention ON the court, not off it like lebron did with pretty much the whole wizards team. That whole deal about Lebron's teammates saying DeShawn Stevenson swung at him with a closed fist is a bunch of garbage. Just look at the replays. Lebron then responds to the situation by saying stuff like "If we was on the streets, things would have escalated." Yeah whatever. Chris Paul knows the game is played on the court, not off.

    CP3 all the way!!!!! Watch him run all over the Spurs tonight!!!!

    Dwight Howard or Chris Paul.

    I give Dwight the edge because generally dominant big men win Rings, not great point guards.

    well i guess it depends if your talking about if they are still in the nba or retired.

    micheal jordan is the best but he is retired i guess the 3rd retired bball player is wilt chamberline (spelling error?)

    i think chris paul or kevin garnet would be 3rd if your talking about players who are still playing in the nba today

  • dwight howard>cp3.

    i like them both though, but i think howard is the better rounded off player. i'm sure that if chris paul was a little bigger he could do a lot more damage.
