Any ideas for how we can get more voters for this poll? Especially when you get this deep into the rankings - there's a lot of different players getting votes and this round we could have someone take the spot despite only having 2 people vote for them in their top spot. I feel like we'd get much better accuracy of the rankings with more of a consensus.

I mean, there's tons of active posters on here, right? But only 9 people voted this round..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

I have Paul Pierce slightly ahead of Pau Gasol.

It usually happens in the top 100 project. People have a lot of interest in the 1st spots but it really goes away as go deeper.

I guess people really don't care much who is top 40 or top 50 and so on.

I feel like the accuracy aspect at this point is more about the range guys get in at than the actual number ranking.

Alright, Pierce takes this spot (and well deserved spot in the top 50, imo). I'll get the next up.....

Just linking a couple of on-topic threads going on around the same time:

Paul Pierce vs Ray Allen

Adrian Dantley vs Alex English vs Paul Pierce
