In a recent SI interview, KD felt like Harden should be in the top 10 and replace Wade..Wade took to Instagram



Then KD responded on Twitter
Quote
Kevin Durant @KDTrey5
Show me don't tweet me.

Looks like we're starting the season off with a bang.

I'm sure KD respects Scottie Pippen's place in history. He probably just doesn't see him as top 10 of his era.

I think this is the ranking for the 2014 season..not top 10 of all.

1.Lebron
2.KD
3.CP3
4.Parker
5.Westbrook
6.Duncan
7.Howard
8.Wade
9.Kobe
10.Carmelo

Whatever ESPN exec dreamed up the annual ranks just got a raise.  Sweet sweet manufactured conflict for the win!

I think this was gatorade or some shoe company.

Mike & Mike were calling out as marketing ploy this morning, not something they'd do if Disney was the pusher.

Looking at the ESPN article the rankings were from Sports Illustrated.  The Gatorade thing is probably because they did that ad together last year.  But good point.

Yeah, that definitely backfired a bit on Reebok.  Thpse commercials were golden, though.

Think Dave made the squad in '92 but Dan ended up being the better decathlete in the long run.  Think he won gold in '96.

More importantly, preseason starts in about a week.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Ugghh Wade. One of the most overrated pkayers in the history of the game. Was fortunate to play with great players.

His best and only basketball move is wildly flailing away at the basket, kicking out his legs, and falling on his butt even on uncontested jumpshots.

Respectfully disagree. His play during their '06 title run was fantastic. Dude's slowed down since then, but he's probably the best or second best shooting guard of the last ten years, depending on how you feel about Kobe.
