The NBA is my favorite sport to watch on TV, or even in person. I think the reason is almost every team has their superstar. Of course, the best games to watch are the games with Cleveland, Boston, Orlando, and the Lakers.

Personally, I don't think you can rate a top five or top 10. The only two who are always around the same spot are LeBron and Kobe—and they're always one or two. I was watching Sportsnation on ESPN2 earlier today and they were doing the NBA top five.

After they said who they thought should've been in there, they read who the fans thought should have made the list from Twitter. Among those were Carmelo Anthony, Deron Williams, Brandon Roy, and many more great players.

There about 20 players I can think of off the top of my head who deserve to be in there. The NBA is full of great players. It is not possible to say these are the top five players in the NBA.

If you think you can name the top five or 10 NBA players perfectly, write an article, then send it to me.
