    Agree With Most of His Ranking and what he says
    Durant is way too low at 9 or 8
    Love What he says about Yao
    He uses the phrase "Able to do anything he sets he's mind on" too much even for Chris Kaman & Caron Butler ..

    But he looks like the type of writer that actually watches every team in the league on a consistent basis ..

    5. Tim Duncan

    4. Dwight Howard

    3. Lebron James

    2. Chris Paul

    1. Dwayne Wade

    Cmon, this list is ridiculous. Even as staunch kobe hater, I think you have to include him in the top 5.
    Duncan top 5? The man has nothing left in the tank. D Howard? Last time I checked hes a 20-10 cwnter, which wouldnt have been enough top sniff Hakeem or prime Shaqs jockstraps.

    These lists are fun, but theyre basically created by the author for trolling purposes.

    You're right that Howard is no Hakeem or Shaq, but that's irrelevant. He's the best center in the NBA today. He has a huge impact on the game. If prime Hakeem or Shaq played in today's league, they'd be #1 easily.

    That's a pretty horrible list. In addition to the problems that others have pointed out already, I'll add this one: Michael Beasley at #39. This is the guy who's such a bust his team gave him away for pretty much nothing. The guy is a scrub.

    My only point was I dont think he belongs at #4 on the list. There are plenty of all around better players in the league than him. All I ever hear about him is how "dominant" he is but Yao put up at or around the same numbers and "dominance" yet hes #20 something. Not that I put much stock in this list...

    LoL @ the 6 players being over Kobe.

    Anthony, Duncan, Howard, rofl.

    Lol @ CP3 being over Bron.

    Kobe should at worst be #2 w/ Bron #1.

    Atrocious list.

    I hope this is a joke. A complete joke.

    This list does not make any sense. Why didn't he put Kobe at 50th place?

    I'm shocked you agree with most of his rankings.

    This list is complete ass from top to bottom and that is putting it nicely.

    You can question the legitimacy of the source all you want, but this is a guys opinion, just like you are expressing, and hell he does a good job of supporting his opinion. I love what he says about KG - dirty player.
    He certainly made me consider looking at things in a different way, a way perhaps the media does not see.

    he does a bad job at supporting his opinion. he puts billups at #17 and calls him a top 10 point guard....he only has 3 other point guards ranked above him. who cares if you agree about that ranking, but clearly that would make billups a TOP 4 point guard. :eek:

    this long message board post that this person wrote on bleacher report is a train wreck.

    Bleacher Report articles are rarely ever thread-worthy. Really wish Clutch would ban the site.

    Chris Paul is number 2? People argue that he isn't even in the best point guard in the league.

    I would rather Deron Williams and Nash over Paul at the moment.
