Manu is better than Tony Parker IMO.

Jose Calderon is in the top 10 for sure if it's this year.

IMO this season, Manu is top 2 on this list...

1. Dirk
2. Yao
3. Manu
4. Parker
5. Gasol
6. Hedo
7. Deng
8. Calderon
9. Okur
10. Peja

Uh, how are Peja, Deng, Calderon, AK or Okur ranked above Bogut on any of those lists? After his coach admitted he made a mistake not using bogut in the past and started going to him a bit he averaged 16/10.5/3/1.8 blocks in the last 50 games of the season. He finished the season as the second best center in the east, although I understand not many people watch Bucks games.

You guys should check out the 'trade values' thread on the Trades board, he's listed at about 26 and none of those guys i mentioned earlier have even been brought up yet.

Mine for this season would be -

1. Dirk
2. Yao
3. Manu
4. Parker
5. Hedo
6. Pao
7. Bogut
8. Memo
9. Deng
10. Calderon

Yeah you have a point I actually was going to include him but forgot about him while ranking the players... but I would probably rank him a bit lower maybe replace Deng... btw people showing some love to Calderon. I like him too but I doubt he has outplayed AK47 or some other players... yet atleast.
