RELAX

Kawhi
Gianni
Embiid
Hayward
Kyrie
Wall
Beal

I won't even put Simmons there even though he's ROTY because folks will claim I'm biased.
Hayward though? :stopitslime: Kawhi is understandable but Hayward does not belong on that list. Ben Simmons does though.

kyrie if completely healthy

you have cats who contribute more on the defensive side

but when healthy uncle.drew is by far the biggest bucket out east

he a closer those other dudes iffy

Kyrie is nice but he’s never proven himself as the best player in the east, or even his team for that matter. It’s not fair to group him in with dudes like Giannis, Wall/Beal, Embiid/Ben, and Kawhi that have to carry their team to the playoffs every year.

Kyrie was the best player on the Cavs before Bron came back and he's the best player on the Celtics currently.

He was never healthy in his first 3 seasons, and he lead them to 2 straight #1 pick selections. He is nice, but like I he has never proven himself as the best player on his team.

Kawhi, I think he'll be fine after the injury and will play on the same level he did with San Antonio. :manny:

After Kawhi, I'd go with Giannis. :ehh:

But I think Embiid about to have a monstrous season. :patrice:
