First Tier 1 - LeBron James 2 - Stephen Curry 3 - Kevin Durant 4 - Kawhi Leonard 5 - Russell Westbrook Second Tier 6 - Chris Paul 7 - Anthony Davis 8 - Paul George 9 - James Harden 10 - Demarcus Cousins Third Tier 11 - Lamarcus Aldridge 12 - Karl Anthony-Towns 13 - Damian Lilliard 14 - Blake Griffin 15 - Draymond Green 16 - Kyrie Irving 17 - Jimmy Butler 18 - Klay Thompson 19 - Marc Gasol 20 - Kyle Lowry Fourth Tier 21 - John Wall 22 - Paul Millsap 23 - Carmelo Anthony 24 - Andre Drummond 25 - DeAndre Jordan 26 - Al Horford 27 - Eric Bledsoe 28 - Mike Conley 29 - Hassan Whiteside 30 - Dirk Nowitzki Fifth Tier 31 - Pau Gasol 32 - Kevin Love 33 - Rudy Gobert 34 - Serge Ibaka 35 - Derrick Favors 36 - Kemba Walker 37 - Dwyane Wade 38 - Dwight Howard 39 - Brook Lopez 40 - Gordon Hayward Sixth Tier 41 - Khris Middleton 42 - Nicolas Batum 43 - Andre Igoudala 44 - DeMar Derozan 45 - Kristaps Porzingis 46 - Steven Adams 47 - Giannis Antetokounmpo 48 - Isaiah Thomas 49 - C.J McCollum 50 - Greg Monroe 51 - Luol Deng, Los Angeles Lakers * top 25 was simple, but 26-50 took me 1hr to rank - tell me if I forgot somebody lol * - Chris Bosh would be top 25 on this list, but he is probably retiring // left him out altogether I agree with you wholeheartedly until Tier four, then we've got problems. Gordon Hayward and Dwyane Wade belong there, seeing as they're better than Bledsoe, Conley, Horford, and I'd even say Dirk. That is how I view last year though, perhaps this year those guys will slip (the ones I thought should be higher. As for everything else, Howard should be higher I feel, last year wasn't an accurate representation of how good he is/can be, but I digress seeing as he had a poor year in Houston. I'd much rather have DeMar DeRozan over players like Kemba Walker, Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez. And at the very least I would put CJ McCollum over Steven Adams. The rest seems pretty good to me

TBH, I didn't watch Hayward play more than twice last season so I may be wrong. You are probably right on him!
As for D-Wade... hmmm, I was very much unsure where to place him. Same with Dwight Howard and Dirk Nowitzki. I don't know whether to judge them on the past or present. Dwight has fallen off significantly recently, but him moving to Atlanta may help him so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. Dirk relies on his jumper than post up and athleticism so I estimated he will be fine as long as he can stay healthy.
As for D-Wade, he relies very much on his speed and so by extension his athleticism. He has already slowed down and has very hard time staying healthy (conditioning issues). He is always banged up, and I have so many questions of how he will fit alongside Rondo and Butler. Huge lockjam there in chicago. I am expecting him to take a fairly significant dip this season as #2 option.
I would also raise Melo above John Wall if I were to re-do that list. Good point on McCollum. I underrated him being next to Lillard, but I would bring him up a few spots.
