They have Granger on there, and Brand has been crap for the 76ers. Just racist against the Wolves.

Re: WT: No Wolves in NBA's top 50
We need to remember a bunch of old players and other old farts voted. Half of them probably don't even realize that Minnesota has had a team since the Lakers. They probobaly thought KG played for the Bucks or Canada or something.
IF realgm did a poll like this, it's pretty safe to say big Al would be top 25 (my moneys around 18 give or take a few).
I could care less what Bob Macadoo, Earl the Pearl, and Bad Bad Leroy Brown think of the current best players.

^exactly
It just goes to show that being a former player or involved with the league doesn't mean you can evaluate talent. People always post those coaches polls, GM polls, etc. as if they mean something, but they really don't. It's also clear that some of the players polled were voting based on career accomplishments, some based on current skill, and some based on trade value/potential. What a botch job!

Al Jefferson is a 4-5 player, then he must be between the ten better centers or power-forwards of the NBA. Quickly ..
Howard, Bynum, Bogut, Gasol, Garnett, Duncan. Nowitzki, Ming, Stoudemire and Bosh are a lot of better than Jefferson.
End of the discussion.

You cant say 'end of discussion' in a forum. Have you seen the length of some of these horrible threads. There is always more discussion.

Is your list based on current or past accomplishments? Or talent? Looks like you got a little of everything in that list. I question based on accomplishments that Bynum and Bogut being better than Jefferson. But I guess if you think they are more talented than thats a different story.

I question whether Stoudemire is a lot better than a healthy Al also.

I'd even question CB4. Hasn't lead his team anywhere the last couple years.
And they'll miss this years playoffs again although they signed Turkoglu for big $
