Baron Davis is disrespected once again. No surprise.

*edit, never mind it's just the All-Star player rankings.

It's actually mid season rankings, and i actually do think Baron Davis should be in the top 20.

As long as his shooting percentages are in the basement he won't ever be up on that top 20 list.

It is simply a look at how these 26 All-Stars (24 original picks and two injury replacements) stand right now.

And we should.

But it's okay, because any list that has Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson in front of Tim Duncan doesn't deserve to be acknowledged.

So field goal percentage is now the end all of determining which players are superior? :roll:

Might I remind you, obnoxious Jazz fan, that Ason Kidd is on that list as well.

You do realize that this is based on this year's statistical performance, right? Not who is actually a better player, right?

So, KG should have been completely ignored for the last 10 years, on and off, but now that he's in Boston he's SUDDENLY become a good player?

Boy, Doc really should be credited for player development, because that's a hell of a turnaround. Funny how KG could just develop talent instantly like that, while he was such a loser of a player before coming to Boston.
