Easiest list I've ever had to do
PG - Kidd
SG -

PF - This one is at least debatable but Duncan
C -
How is PF debatable?
Duncan is, by far, the best PF of the past decade and he's the greatest PF of all time.
Some people say KG, and I can respect that

Hell nah.
Some people might say Wade was better than Kobe but that don't make it true.
Duncan is better than KG and it's not really close. Maybe if you're just comparing prime to prime but Duncan has more accolades, rings, was better longer, and consistency over they're careers.
C - Hakeem
PF - Duncan
SF - LeBron
SG - Kobe
PG - Kidd
The only debatable one for me is Hakeem/Shaq @ C. I give Hakeem the edge because of how he was able to impact the game offensively AND defensively. CP3 will have a case in 2-3 years if he keeps up this play and the clippers win a championship.

You shouldn't respect it.
At this point I am not sure I will take KG over Dirk all-time. I respect KG's defense in his prime, but Dirk was just on another level on the offensive end and took over games when it mattered.
@ OP not having Bron
PG: Chris Paul
SG: Kobe Bryant
SF: LeBron James
PF: Tim Duncan
C: Shaquille O'Neal
McGrady is ARGUABLY the most talented player in nba history. if not for injuries, who knows what he coulda been.
skillswise he shyts on LeBron.
he's played center since David Robinson retired.
In 1997-2003, Robinson was clearly the center. Backup was Will Perdue, Kevin Willis.
In 2003-2006, Nesterovic was clearly the center. Backups were Kevin Willis, Nazr Mohammed.
Then it was Obeeto from 06-09.
Duncan has spent the majority of his years as a PF, won most of his rings as a PF, and likes to be called a PF. As he's gotten older, he guards more centers and stuff now but front court positions are changing anyway where PFs play C and vice versa.
Just because Lebron and Melo spend a lot of time at PF the last couple of years DIESNT mean they're aren't still SFs.
Ben.

Skillwise he doesn't come close to LeBron. LeBron way better skillwise.
LeBron is the most talented player in NBA history period (maybe 2nd to Wilt but that's it).
Edit: besides this is the best player the past 15 years, LeBron is EASILY the best SF of the past 15 years not even close.

Except, who cares? Skill and talent don't matter if you don't get results.
Lebron has continuously posted better seasons, is more effecient, a better passer and rebounder, and impacts the game in more ways.
McGrady isn't even on the same planet as Lebron when it comes to overall impact in offense or defense. Pick T-Mac's 3 best years and compare them to Lebron's. It's a Fukkin murder.
