This made me smile.

Then I remembered that ... wasn't this in the same context of him saying he was as good as Dwyane Wade. It was! :D

Otoh, I like Terry better than most, probably all of the above. Don't think impact stuff loves him but he was productive on good teams, could play two positions, seems less like an empty calories scorer than many of the alternatives.

Gordon during his bulls years was good. A beast in the playoffs.

Only J.R.Smith and Terry have positive career netrtg. So maybe these two are on TOP

As an offensive option? I'll say as a third option then cause these guys were mostly volume scores that could light it up.
