Good question.  This is, of course, assuming full health for all involved.

1. LeBron James
2. Dwight Howard
3. Kevin Durant
4. Chris Paul
5. Kobe Bryant
6. Dwyane Wade
7. Dirk Nowitzki
8. Derrick Rose
9. Rajon Rondo
10. Kevin Love

Tony Parker, Russell Westbrook, Pau Gasol, and Andrew Bynum were tough omissions.

No Dwight? At all?

Man, with two top 5 players you'd have think we'd have won the title easily, even with all the injuries.  We had Paul Pierce and Bass while Shaq and Kobe won the 2002 Finals with only Robert Horry and Fisher around them.

If all are healthy:
1. Kevin Durant
2. Lebron James
3. Dwight Howard
4. Kevin Garnett

Nope. No Dwight. He's had stacked teams with nothing to show for it.  That's a good point you just made. Let me account for a few of Bron's teammates

1 Bron
2 Joey Crawford
3 David Stern
4 crooked nba ref du jour
5 Durant
6 KG
7 K Love
8 Rondo
9 Duncan
10 Kobe

Yours looks about right to me too.

Rajon Rondo
Jeff Green
Jared Sullinger
Fab Melo
Jason Terry
Chris Wilcox

no order of course

If all are healthy:
1. Kevin Durant
2. Lebron James

I wish this was true, but Lebron is better than Durant by at least a half tier.  I thought Durant had arguably surpassed James in the regular season, but the playoffs proved that Lebron is far and away the best player in the NBA.

I wouldn't say Dwight has ever been on a stacked team.  In pretty much every series he lost the next 3 or 4 best players all played for the other team.

When he lost to Boston, Boston had 4 of the 5 best players in the series.  When he lost to Los Angeles, Los Angeles had 3 of the best 4 players in the series.  When he lost to Atlanta, Atlanta had 3 of the 4 best players in the series.  When he lost to Detroit, Detroit had 4 of the 5 best players in the series.

Hedo Turkoglu and Jameer Nelson aren't in my Hall of Fame.  Dwight has never once played for a stacked team.  He's never played with a single other Hall of Famer.

You all forgot someone

[European NBA fan]

You all forgot someone

Isn't He in a league of his own? 

[blink]

I think Lebron was clearly the best player in the league last year.  I love KD, but his def isn't at the same level yet.

1 Lebron
2 K Durant
3 Kevin Love
4 Tony Parker
5 Rondo
6 Bynum
7 kobe
8 d wade
9 Westbrook
10 dwight howard

I don't think howard deserves to be in the top 5.
