the 3 current greats players in the league are Kobe/Lebron/ and at 3 id say its tied between Wade, and Durant, but Durant is just getting started. I wouldn't put Howard up there because he is great defensively but he doesn't really have that "take over a game" mentality that Wade does, so I'd put Wade over him.
And as far as the part I bolded, Who are the great players Detroit had? In fact they BEAT the Lakers when they had Malone, Payton, Kobe, and Shaq. So I don't think that's the recipe. And who did the Spurs have besides Tim Duncan that you'd consider a great? I think your theory is a bit flawed that ALL those teams needed two greats to win it. it ain't about how many greats you have on your team. One great can do it, it all depends on how you can get everyone else involved and how you take over a game. The Lakers with Shaq and Kobe won 3 titles in a row. But they lost the 4th year to the Spurs with only one great, Tim Duncan. You don't need TWO GREATS to win a championship.
