Howard is very debatable 2nd. Durant has a pretty stacked team although he is by far the best player on the team.
For me its Lebron and then Howard / Durant a toss up for 2nd. After that point you have huge question marks:
CP3 is the guy I would take. Wade I guess should be up there. How high is Love? I'm not a huge Rose fan. Kobe shouldn't be up here any more.
With respect to the 2nd question. On pure individual acheivements alone I could see Lebron being 2nd all time to MJ. With everything else you could argue others into the Mix. To me Lebron is easily better than Magic, Bird and a couple of the other all time greats who get propped up a bunch due to titles. Lebron looks or maybe is fortunate enough that he should have a really long and amazing career, but who knows. If you take his individual achievements so far in his career and compare him to everyone else, he's way, way up there. Obviously the media will say RANGZ or whatever and drop him probably into the 6-9 range all time after MJ, Magic, Wilt, Russell, Bird, maybe Shaq.
