Kobe is ranked #24 (Literately that # lol)

2013-14 statistics
• 13.8 PPG, 6.3 APG, 4.3 RPG, 42.5 FG%, 18.8 3P%
• 10.7 PER, -0.4 Win Shares, 1.7 RAPM

If … If … If. That’s the first and last word when it comes to Bryant, who is coming back from an Achilles injury that ended his 2012-13 season a week before the playoffs and a knee injury that cut his 2013-14 season short after just six nondescript games.

To be honest thats a nice ranking for everything that went wrong last season. Lets see if the Bean can get back on track this season. I'd expect around 30-32mpg this season under Byron Scott

Can't help but feel like they ranked him there on purpose. Which is not all that surprising since no one knows just what kind of Kobe we're all going to watch this year.

Only Laker ranked in the top 100 players.

Yeah... Even crazier to me is Derrick Rose is only one spot ahead of him on here

It's all a guessing game. Was quite happy they didn't go and overrate Klay.

What's crazy is Rose being rated that high. Did you see his play on Team USA?

I thought these were pretty good rankings, tbh. I mean, how is it possible to make a "correct" list? It's not. At least they gave good reason behind their selection criteria.

I'm sorry but Duncan is way too high. People seem to forget he's surrounded by great players with insane chemistry and a GOAT coach.

Pretty reasonable rankings, actually... Our league is do an influx of talent... Not as many All Stars as we once had in the league...
