From CBSsportsline

They have Calderon in the top 20 but no Ford. He has to be one of the top 20 PG's in the league. :evil:

That list is awful. Wow, I'm not just saying that because Ford isn't in it, but wow.

I think Tinsley should even be on that list higher than some of the people.
Rest in Peace, Pacerfan
Will eat crow if Brandon Rush turns out good.

That list is ridiculous. Monta Ellis hasn't even played PG for the Warriors yet, and he would be coming off a major injury. Leandro Barbosa? Over TJ Ford, that is a joke. C'mon Sportsline ... you can do better.

On the list: Kirk Heinrich, who is on the trading block hard core and nobody wants him still. Jose Calderon, who sat behind TJ in Toronto. Derek Fisher...okay, the explanation I read is that he's there because he's been in so many finals. Knock Chris Paul down a few notches because he hasn't. It's so completely moronic to rank people based on the number of Championships they win because there are too many people who pull a Phil Jackson and won't play with anyone who isn't an odds-on favorite already. Jameer Nelson (do I have to comment on this one?). Rajon Rondo, who manages the game. They throw him in there with the All-Century team and tell him not to screw up too bad, and when he doesn't they put him in the top 20.

Not on the list: Derrick Rose, who will start over Heinrich this year. Delonte West, who did an amazing job last year and can be a great player when he settles down. I don't think he's top 20, but better than Fisher and Nelson. TJ Ford, who I would put anywhere from 12-15 on that list. If you're factoring in health issues we can go 17-18, but then Arenas and Ellis drop.

I agree, thats BS , yes Derrick Fisher was the reason LA won the titles. Not Shaq, not Kobe but Derrick Fisher

Ford can definitely chalenge with Calderon for the 11th spot on that list IMO. Andre Miller should be top 10 and Hinrich should be a lot lower. Hinrich had a downyear and yet he manages to stay at the same position in this list.

Health can't be a issue as this guy clearly has a thing for Arenas...

The fact that Kirk Hinrich is ranked ahead of Jose Calderon and Areanas ahead of Deron Williams throws out all credibility IMO.
