Figured I'd post this, see what people thought:

10: Griffin

9: Deron Williams

8: Rose

7: Bryant

6: Durant

5: Dirk

4: Paul

3: Wade

2: Howard

1: James

Thoughts?

I guess maybe it's just me but I feel like Dirk deserves a raise in ranking after last year, and I'm not sure how Kobe is 7.

Y?

Paul can take over a game and change it. The knock on him is he's always, always hurt. That's why I wouldn't have him that high. Maybe they took injuries out of the equation though. Griffin to be that high so fast is kind of not fair. I would expect to see Kevin Love up there, but nope.

I don't see how Paul is overrated. I personally think he is the most well rounded PG in the league. He can score if needed, dish the rock, and play D. It's tough to put him ahead of Dirk though.

As far as the list goes, why is Blake Griffin #10? I don't get it. He has a lot to work on as far as his offensive game goes. He's exciting to watch but not the 10th best player.

I just think Kobe is aging and that is why he is so low.

paul is not overrated. when healthy he is the best pg in the league by far (this coming from a big d. will fan). Kobe should be higher and lebron is the best player as far as skill set/physical ability go but he lacks the leadership and heart to really make him #1.

Supposedly this list wasn't going to factor in potential and was suppose to be strictly as of the present time. If that's the truth, then how in the world is Blake in the top 10? Don't get me wrong, dude is a beast and will be for a long time, but as of right NOW, he doesn't deserve that #10 spot. Not to mention Dirk outplayed 2 of the 4 guys ranked above him in the finals.. :hand:

I'm not sure that he's the 4th best player in the entire league either, but to call him the most overrated player of this generation seems ridiculous given that Vince Carter is an 8-time all star. Paul's durability isn't THAT bad, he's averaged 70 games a season.

To stay on topic, I would put both Carmelo and Amare above Griffin.

      Canes vs redwings 7pm

      It's not good to leave any netminder having a bad night out there, not fair to them, not fair to the skaters still trying to win the game It's classless and shows a lack of respect, for them has a player and a human being, you aren't gaining anything, you aren't learning anything , except they just don't have it that night. I don't care if it's a multiple Vezina Winner, or a 3rd string back up, don't leave them out there to shame themselves and the rest of the team  What if Lavi left Cam in when he didn't have it, and Rod had to skate knowing he essentially has an open net at his end of the ice, would he enjoy that ?

      If they draft Stewart at 8th, I will ask @Mr. Scot for a list of GMs and might as well ask for HC too.....

      I can't for the life of me figure out what people are seeing in Stewart on tape. If he can't just simply run around or through the OL in front of him, he's cooked. I don't see any actual moves. If he doesn't win on sheet athleticism at the point of contact he's nullified. I don't know if I've ever seen him actually beat a block once engaged. Then, even if he just blasts right past or through the OL and has a clean path to the ball it's like he's blind. He can't find the ball. He's like a bottle rocket. Yeah, he takes off fast but he's just going to go fast in a general direction. There will be no course correction. I watched quite a bit on him just because of his perceived draft evaluation and because of the wild discrepancy between measurables and production. Watch him play and it all makes since. He's a god tier physical specimen who just happens to be playing football. I don't see a football player. People need to stop falling in love with the potential and start realizing why the potential isn't translating.
