They're all great players and I'm not going to diminish any of them by trying to pick just one. In that lofty group, the two who are a little below the rest IMO are KG and McGrady, simply because they have never been winners or even contenders. The same is true of LeBron, of course, at least so far, and you can bet he will hear about it until he at least takes a team to the Finals. The difference is he is still only 21 or 22. Garnett and McGrady have both been in the league for years and have only led their teams to mediocrity.
