Rank the top 6 players in the series 

Post#1 » by Spin Move » Sun Jun 1, 2008 10:17 pm

Here is my ranking of the top 6 players in the series

1. Kobe, without question top 3 player in the nba
2. KG, Best defensive big in the series
3. Pierce, Very good but not kobe
4. Pau- Soft on D but a real scoring threat
5. Odom can really disaper at times but works on D and a talented passer
6. Ray Ray...Crazy inconsistent this offseason but perhaps the best pure shooter of the bunch.

I think 123 is pretty clear (you can argue KG for #1) 4 vs 5 is very debatable imop.

Scary how Odom and Allen can go either way at this point -- might be the key to the series.

Lakers fans are complaining about Odom... but then again, we've been complaining about Ray.

As far as Bryant>KG>Pierce, there's no question.

Now that I think of it

I'd take Rondo over Odom every day of the week

Also, Posey has out performed Ray Allen and probably will (ya know defense is just as valuable as offense)

Kobe
KG
Pierce
Gasol
Odom
Allen

Fairly simple I think.

Don't know how you can rank Ray over Odom. Odom is putting up 15 and 10 in the playoffs on 48 percent shooting, and he's not even presumed to be playing well. Ray is averaging 15, not shooting well, and not doing much else. But if he plays the way he did the last two games, the edge may swing to Ray.

If Ray plays like he has the past 2 games he challenges Pau for 4th

Yea, but if Ray plays he like has for the majority of the playoffs, he's somewhere around Sasha Vujacic and Jordan Farmar.

More importantly if Ray allen is hitting his shots. The Celtics will win easily.

not historically.... ray is far superior. He doesnt have a history of playing bad.. odom is marginally talented compared to ray.

He's so far beyond everyone else that he wears a suit on the bench. A SUIT ON THE BENCH! Imagine that...
