Are Yao, Tmac, Melo and Iverson all top 15 players in the NBA?

Storm Surge · Post #2 » by **Storm Surge** » Sun Apr 27, 2008 5:40 pm

(in no order)

Kobe
LeBron
Duncan
Paul
Wade
KG
Dirk
Nash
Dwight
Deron
Bosh

Yao is definitely in the top 15.

McGrady depending on who you talk to can be in or out

Melo not in the top 15

Iverson is probably out IMO, but he is closer than Melo

I am 100% sure Yao is.

Yao is easily in the top 10..

as for the rest..

no order..The King, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, Wade, Paul, Dwight, Yao, D.Williams, Nash, Dirk, Pierce..IMO those guys are all ahead of Mac, Melo and AI..then you have to throw in arguables like Bosh, Amare and a few others that could be considered..

Mac and Yao are top 15 for sure

Yao is top 15, but with regards to the rest.

In no particular order
Lebron, Paul, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, Howard, Dirk, Nash, Deron, Boozer, and Wade are all better than those three.

You could also argue the following players are better than T-Mac, Melo, and Iverson:
Manu, Pau, Bosh, Billups,

Ignoring injuries (otherwise Yao and Tmac are gonna take hefty hits), in no particular order:

I would only have Yao in the top 12:
LeBron, Kobe, Paul, Deron, Nash, KG, Duncan, Brand, Dirk, Yao, Dwight, Wade

The next 3 are some combination of:
Tmac, Melo, AI, Bosh, Boozer, Amare, Al Jefferson, Gasol, Pierce, Butler, Chauncey, Baron Davis, Arenas, Manu

I would say AI is probably in there, but not Melo or Tmac.

melo for sure no, he's so overrated.

Melo is worthless crap, just Glenn Robinson taking more shots. T-Mac is top 20, Iverson is probably top 15, Yao is top 15.

So much Melo bashing lately, give him a break he's still young.

26. ppg on 49% shooting with 7.4 rebounds per game and 3.4 assists per game, while getting hated on by the media and ignorant fans. He is way to overrated, I mean you would think he was scoring 20ppg on 30% shooting while not grabbing any boards or ever passing if you listen to half of you.

T-Mac is grabage and I'm a Rockets fan. He is not top 15.

Carmelo is the only one not in... but he barely misses out... This is my personal ranking

1. Kobe Bryant
2. LeBron James
3. Tim Duncan
4. Kevin Garnett
5. Chris Paul
6. Dwight Howard
7. Dwyane Wade
8. Steve Nash
9. Dirk Nowitzki
10. Yao Ming
______________

11. Deron Williams
12. Amare Stoudemire
13. Tracy McGrady
14. Carlos Boozer
15. Allen Iverson
16. Carmelo Anthony

But also keep in mind Arenas and Brand could also break back in when healthy

Baron and Tmac 7th and 8th? I'm assuming this is a joke?

Yes, Iverson is still top 15 in the league.

1st in minutes, 3rd in scoring, 9th in assists, 4th in steals, 3rd in FTA, 2nd in FTM.

If that isn't a top 15 player in the league, then I don't know what is.
