Rondo is imo a top-tier PG, but this isn't the place to discuss that. :)

well i cant argue cuz everyone thinks i slight rondo... very few people feel the way i do about him...

hopefully after this season, when the big 3 is dispanded, we will find out...

my take on rondo is he is a really good PG great passer, average on ball defender great off ball defender and great at driving but he is not in the mold of PG's that you simply can build around..

like rose, westbrook, williams, paul, even tony parker and such...

hes not a guy you build around and can win with... hes a guy you have to have multiple other great pieces for him to be great with his passing

theres never been a superstar in this league that teams best defense against him was NOT guarding him

and yes, harden is going to be a beast if he ever starts on OKC, or if he goes to another team.. he will be a top 5 scorer year in and year out

Harden a top 10 player? He is really good (was 2nd on my SG list) but he's not top 10 yet. He might be someday, but right now he's the 3rd best guy on his own team.

you gotta look down the line man... hes playing a backup role like ginobili does for SA...

did you see where 14 out of 22 GMS said they would trade westbrook before losing harden?

harden has to share shots with 2 other superstars who put up a TON of shots... imagine what harden is going to do when he becomes option number 1...

thats what im doing here.. dude will be top 5 in scoring every year if he ever gets off OKC

in only 31 mpg this year... harden averaged basically 17 ppg on 39% three point shooting and 49% overall

imagine that as the first option and getting a regular 37 to 38 minutes... man i hope the sixers find a way to pry this guy away somehow

Just in case anyone missed it in all the Rondo/Harden chatter, Wall was taken...

I'm still a little shocked that my boy Dirk went unnoticed for that long. Remains top 3 PF in the game, and one of the most dominant postseason players at the moment. During an unhealthy year for him, he STILL managed to average 27/6 against a championship contender. Looking forward to building around him 8-)

Dirk is good an all, but I see him majorly dropping off in 2 seasons. Isn't the goal for building your team, to be the best team possible over the next 5 years? To build your team for now and the future?

Lol, that's exactly what I"m doing, but I'm also going to try to build for many years into the future. Built a VERY young team last year...Trying to go a different route this time around. Plus, I messed up by not drafting anyone with legit postseason experience.

Yea, that's the main goal in this game, but you also have to look at how many rings you feel will be possible to obtain in those few years. If we can win a championship in one of those 2 years (although I feel that it's more like 3-4 years for him), we would be MORE than happy.

Keep on the lookout for one that comes open. Might have to drop Turner4MVP & Sixerlover if they don't make their picks soon.
