Players should rate players..just like the nfl do..these analysts never played at this level before! Just being real

[Michael Lucky]

problem with player rankings is the bias towards teammates that goes into it.

[leeprettyp]

Just make it so players cant vote for anybody on their own team. I doubt that would be an issue

what an idiot.


anyway, pau at 29 is pretty damn generous. i hope he's worthy of that ranking.

I love Durant's game a ton but there might not be a worse tweeter in the league. Lpl

Thought about making the same thread as last year,to keep all discussions in here

It's more useful than seeing x amount of threads when the list is finished like "OMG,Kobe is not in the top 10 " or stuff like that

#25 Kobe Bryant
#29 Pau Gasol
#88 Steve Nash
#176 Chris Kaman
#228 Nick Young
#237 Jordan Hill
#253 Steve Blake
#276 Jodie Meeks
#305 Jordan Farmar
#336 Wes Johnson
#432 Robert Sacre
#451 Xavier Henry*
#460 Elias Harris*
#469 Darius Johnson Odom*
#477 Ryan Kelly*

*non guaranteed contracts

Damn.

Kobe will retire if he comes back a worse player than D-Will.

i dont understand how playing the game has anything to do with being able to analyze or rank players. Magic was one of the smartest players ever and he says the dumbest **** ever on ESPN/twitter and im pretty sure cant rank players for ****. Same for guys like Barkley and Shaq. the current guys in the league are no different.

[GeorgeDillion]

The same can be said about posting on a message board or writing a sports article its all opinion anyway. If the players feel they should be able to rank themselves its fine with me, its not like writers, bloggers or forum dwellers are beyond reproach or biases.

I was going to say this is the first time I'm seeing this list this season and I'm baffled by the idea that only 4 ratings separate Pau and Kobe. Pau has been on a downward spiral since 2011.
