Two Rockets were selected! Based on the performance of the past season, the US media has shown the top 5 rosters in various positions in the live performance, among which KD surpassed James to become the strongest small forward in active service, Curry ranked fourth in point guard, and Harden was unfortunately out of the election.

Top five point guards: Doncic, Alexander, Brunson, Curry and Cunningham

Doncic beat Alexander to ranked first. The latter is the new MVP in the 24-25 season, and even led the Thunder to win the championship and won the FMVP, and deserved to be the top spot.

Doncic won a higher ranking mainly because he has lost a lot of weight in the offseason, which makes people look forward to his performance in the new season. It is generally believed that he will play the best season in his career.

And the former king Curry ranked fourth. The fundamental reason for failing to enter the top three is the injury and age problem. Another two heroes, Harden, successfully transformed into a point guard and returned to the best team in the 24-25 season, but unfortunately missed the top five.

Top five points and guards: Edwards, Mitchell, Booker, Brown and Bain

As Harden transforms into point guards, the trend of "declining points and guards" in the NBA has further intensified. A group of young players seem to be good at strength, but in fact, no real MVP-level superstar was born.

Among them, Edwards has hope to take the banner in the next few years. He has exaggerated athletic talent and developed a large-scale three-point shooting last season.

Another one worth paying attention to is Mitchell. He has led the Cavaliers to play dominant continuously in the past two seasons, and his performance in the playoffs is also remarkable, but he needs to further lead the team to win real honors in order to have hope of completing a real transformation.

Top five small forwards: Durant, James, Ka Jr., Butler and Jaylen Williams

It is not difficult to see from the top five small forwards that the top NBA stars have a serious fault, and the top four positions are still the old generation of stars. Durant and James, the top two, are both over 37 years old, but the "Big and Big King" are still very dominant, especially on the offensive end.

And the two did not give up on continuing to compete for the championship at the end of their careers. Durant joined the Rockets in the offseason and was determined to compete for the championship in the new season. James, who entered the end of his career, also put pressure on the team to continue to strengthen after executing the player option, and thus once again fell into trading rumors. The top five power forwards: Antetokounmpo, Antetokounmpo, Benkairo, Sika and Zion are undoubtedly Antetokounmpo. In the past five years, Antetokounmpo has been a stable top three stars in the league, and has maintained a top level on both offense and defense.

Brother Davis followed closely behind. At his peak, Davis's ability was not inferior to Antetokounmpo, and even had better comprehensiveness and stability on the offensive end, but his durability was difficult to compare with Antetokounmpo, which led to him ranking second. The top five centers: Jokic, Embiid, Vinbanyama, Towns and Shinkyung

Jokic is the undisputed first-time active player. He has been like this in the past five years, winning the MVP three times, and constantly adjusting the game content according to the team's requirements. He even averaged a big triple-double in the 24-25 season.

Embid, second place, once grabbed a MVP in Jokic, but due to injury issues, Embiid's future is uncertain and whether his career can continue is still unknown. It is quite controversial to rank him second.

In addition, another player worth mentioning is Shin Kyung, who joined hands with his new teammate Durant to the list, which is also the core reason why the Rockets are regarded as the first-tier champion in the new season.

The specific list is as follows
