We seem to like lists. How about a place for them? Nothing boring like "Top Ten PGs in the League", instead, change it to something that is not position biased like, "Top Ten Passers".

I will begin.

Top Ten Offensive Posters-Strictly based on brute ability to move defenders off of the block (NOT ability to score from the post, this is a list for another time)

1. Dwight Howard
2. Shaq
3. Eddy Curry
4. Duncan
5. Boozer
6. Brand
7. Jefferson
8. Randolph
9. Kaman
10. Yao

hm (in order): KG, Bynum, Okafor, Haywood, Ilgauskas

Top Ten Post Anchors-Who doesn't get moved off of the block if going against one of the above guys

1. Shaq?
2. Dwight
3. Duncan
4. Ben Wallace
5. Rasheed Wallace
6. Dampier
7. Haywood
8. KG
9. Okafor
10. Chandler

hm (in order): Perkins, Dikembe, Kaman, Maxiell, Camby

Ought to get things started, look forward to debating these! Other lists I'd love to see: TT lockdown defenders, TT skilled dribblers, TT *in-game* dunkers, TT passers (maybe differentiate b/w pinpoint and flashy?), TT skilled scorers in the post (and their counterparts--skilled post defenders), TT ironmen/war machines, TT china dolls, TT offensive/defensive bbiq guys, TT fastest (end to end), TT quickest (laterally), TT scoreres off the dribble, TT hustlers

Fats and Slam, feel free to kill the thread if it's too OT, but I think this could generate some traffic/discussion that isn't draft related...

i love the idea walt. as you can see by my 5 things i'd rather do that watch a Cavs - Pistons list, i enjoy making lists.

i'll give one a shot.

top 10 in game dunkers (currently) - based on quantity, power, nastiness, style and timing

1. dwight howard
2. lebron james
3. amare stoudamire
4. andre iguodala
5. josh smith
6. tyson chandler (thank you chris paul)
7. kobe bryant
8. gerald wallace
9. rudy gay
10. monta ellis

hm: shawn marion, chris wilcox, richard jefferson, shaq, kevin garnett, jamario moon

I love it.

4) Jose Calderon
5) Deron Williams
6) Brandon Roy
7)Chauncey Billups

3) Eddy Curry
4) Shaq
5) Andrew Bynum
6) Carlos Boozer
7) Yao Ming

nice.....

eddies is an awesome place for breakfast. i live fairly close to cotswold so i hit this place up a few times a year. o to live at the new mega-castle across the street.

the shun lee palace? really? is that the one on colwick behind the chik-fil-a? OMG, that place has been there for like 30 years. i ate there a few months ago. i thought chef ramsey would pop out of the kitchen at any moment with a kitchen nightmares film crew behind him.

tres peso! LOL. thats so random. i used to work off old pineville. i've eaten at that place about 100 times. love the view... food is ok.

a couple more....

1. woodbutcher's deli - old pineville - LOVE that place. its like home.
2. middle east deli - independence - eat at your own risk
3. sante - matthews - when you are in the mood for fancy

my 10 favorite bobcats moments (my memory is shady at best, so forgive me if i leave out some great moments).


10. jrich going for 42 vs the warriors this year
9. bernie getting ejected vs the nets. that game was HILARIOUS!
8. the last few minutes of the infamous lakers game (i missed most of the game due to work)
7. wallace's block vs shaq
6. wallace's block vs al harrington
5. felton's 30ish game vs the cavs his rookie year.
4. wallace's 42 point game vs the hawks
3. walter's 30ish point game vs the hawks
2. wallace's follow-up slam for a win vs the warriors
1. ammo's 27 point explosion vs the t-wolves

No matter what I think of putting as a top 10 list, it's all going to make me look like a smart ass... and rightfully so.

My list:
Best Handles
1. Iverson
2. Alston
3. Nash
4. Paul
5. Marbury
6. Deron
7. Jason Williams
8. Crawford
9. Baron Davis
10. TJ Ford

HM: Wade, Parker, Melo and LeBron- all of these guys have great handle highlights, but to me it's b/c of their athleticism vs. some of the skill required for the guys above.

[quote="Walt Cronkite"][/quote]

Good list...I was thinking about switching Alston and AI like yours and was tempted to put in Parker in my top 10.

Like fats, I questioned the inclusion of Crawford, but wow, he has some sick youtube clips!!

Anyone want to take a stab at fastest?

I'm thinking (off the top of my head). No idea really what order I'd put them in, these are my tiers though...

1-3.Ellis, Barbosa, Ford
4-6: Parker, Iverson, Harris
7-10: Marcus Banks, Arenas, Paul...Ronnie Brewer? Jordan Farmar?
