So who deserves to crack the top 10 best basketball players list? This is always tough because a lot of players deserve to be on here but, unfortunately we only have 10 slots so, if you’re favorite player is not on here or has been left out, he probably deserves to be on here but, it’s my picks and my blog. So here goes my top 10 list for the 2012 season:

1. LeBron James. Considering team chemistry is improved. Lebron was the consensus choice who did everything his team asked of him. The King was absolutely brilliant this year. Earning him this years MVP.
2. Dwyane Wade. Part of the one two combination in South Beach, Wade takes no back seat to no one even his star team mate only this year.
3. Kevin Durant. This was tough because on anyone’s list Durant could easily be number 1. Durantula was extremely an offensive machine this year capturing his second straight scoring title not only that but his leadership means more than anything to this young OKC team.
4. Derrick Rose. He became a better passer, he developed a decent jump shot, what's next?
5. Dwight Howard. I assume he'll continue to work on his weak post games and develop some decent post moves.
6. Amar'e. Same as below.
7. Melo. Better team chemistry helps.
8. Deron Williams. His buzz in the NBA died after going to the Nets, I'll assume he finds his place and generates a lot of buzz for himself and his team next year.
9. Blake Griffin. He needs to develop a legitimate post game.
10. Zach Randolph. I think Memphis has found their groove.

That’s my list love it or hate it. I wonder if the online betting odds are up for next years MVP. I’m going with Kevin Durant as my pick. How about you?
