FW ranks all-time small forwards: James tied for the top spot, Durant second Tatum was ignored

In fact, looking at the entire league history, the overall quality of forward players seems to be inferior to the defenders and insiders. Until the emergence of superstars such as James and Durant narrowed the overall gap, even if the number of forwards can be counted as superstars, it seems that it is a little less.

Media FW gives league history, all small forwards, and four players including James and Larry Bird tied for the top spot. Durant is in the second tier, while Tatum, who has just suffered serious injuries, seems to be ignored by industry insiders and is only ranked in the fourth tier.

Of course, it needs to be clarified here. In fact, FW classification does not only depend on strength and honor, but combined with the highlight moments and popularity, there will naturally be some differences. James and Bird are basically the first two in this position, so there is no need to have too many son-in-law. As for "Dr. J" Julius Irving, his status in history is not the highest, but others including Jordan and Wilkins all said that he was his original idol. Dominic Wilkins won the All-Star weekend dunk twice at the end of the last century, and even if he only competed with this ability, he could compete with Jordan. Even with a torn Achilles tendon, Wilkins remained in good condition after his comeback. Combined with the medical conditions at that time, this seemed even more valuable.

Durant's ability should be in the first level, or he is second only to James and Bird. The problem is that Durant always likes to go to social platforms, tie the ball with ordinary fans, and various magical operations make him look very bad, and even the media unconsciously lowers his rank. Others like Anthony, Baylor and Hawkins seem to have no problem in this category. For example, although Anthony's achievements and leadership abilities are average, his playing style has really attracted fans and his influence in the international arena is even rare. There are many third-level stars, such as Leonard and Grant Hill, who are like super giants in their health, but due to serious injuries and terrible attendance, they have dropped to this level. As for Pierce, Paul George, Bernard King and Jimmy Butler, they are indeed in this level.

Tatum was a bit miserable. Last year, the Celtics won the championship, but the FMVP gave Jaylen Brown. Many people think that Tatum was in the championship and did not reflect the leadership temperament at all. This season, Tatum was directly reimbursed due to injury, so he was only ranked fourth, tied with Pippen, Wosi and Marion. Other stars include Mullin, Schramf, Stojakovic and others.
