A lot of commentators and fans regularly refer to Love as a top 10 player, but is he really?
My personal top 10 is LBJ, KD, Paul, Curry, Westbrook, George, Griffin, Aldridge, Parker, Duncan.
Then there are other flawed stars like Harden, Howard, and Melo
Rising stars like Davis, Wall, Lillard, Leonard, and possibly Irving and DMC
Injured and hard to rank guys like Rondo, Rose, Kobe
Plus Bosh, Marc Gasol, Noah, Dirk, Big Al
There are just way too many good and successful players to declare Love top 10. He is a subpar defender , struggles creating his own shot, and obviously hasn't made the playoffs. I know he hasn't been on the greatest teams, but the twolves were as talented as the Suns and Mavs last year and still finished way behind them. I just don't see how Love is a clear cut top 10 player- Dirk, for instance, did way more with an equal team last year, and he isn't considered top 10 anymore.
