Houston home to: the 7th and 15th best players in the League

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting PlaTsanity:</div><div class="quote_post">My top 10:

1) Tim Duncan
2) Shaquille O'Neal
3) Kevin Garnett
4) Allen Iverson
5) Tracy Mcgrady
6) Kobe Bryant
7) Lebron James
8) Dwayne Wade
9) Jason Kidd
10) Manu</div>

Where is Jermaine O'neal? I'm not singling you out, but do people not like him or something?

1. Duncan
2. Shaq
3. Garnett
4. Kobe
5. McGrady
6. Iverson
7. Lebron
8. Amare
9. Wade
10. J. O'neal

The Last 4 are toss-ups IMO, and I am being unbiased. Yao can easily make that list this year.

 

man, Iverson is so overrated. He shouldn't be in the top 5. Here's My ranking...

1. TD
2. Shaq
3. KG
4. Kobe
5. T-Mac
6. Lebron
7. Wade
8. AI <--- yup that's right.
9. Amare
10. Nash

 

ya i can see that but who knows what will happen to wade and lebron with their new found teamates. their numbers can take a considerable fall

 

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TMacAttack:</div><div class="quote_post">But what made him a "GREAT" player? The championships? And what do you attribute to those rings he has? All Kobe has proved he can do by himself is average 27 points per game while leading his team to a 34-48 record. No he does dont deserve to be in the top 5; nor does anyone else who averages 25+ points and can't get their team above .500.</div>


Whoa Whoa. Im not a Kobe lover or anything, but wait a second. Tmac didnt do squat by himself. In fact all he did was average a couple more points. If you are trying to make a case for T-mac that is completely invalid. By teh way, what happened to Kevin last year? Its hard to go anywhere with a team like Kobes, or even a team that Mac had in Orlando. Every player needs some good players around him.
And ALSO, Kobe had a "below-average" year last year, because he shot a percentage similar to Tmac and Iverson shoots, which is not characteristic of him ,YET he still had stats that mirrored Tmacs, except a couple more points a game. Keep this in mind folks

Top Ten

1. KG
2. TD
3. KOBE
4. TMAC
5. SHAQ- People, he is way past his prime, this season it will show more, hes gained lots of weight back. He averaged about 23 and 10 last year.
6. AMARE
7. IVERSON
8. LEBRON
9. WADE
10. JERMAINE

Nowitzki was horrible in the playoffs thats why I didn't put him onm there. And JOneal was somehow forgotten because he was suspended for a portion of the season but hell put up Nowitzki Numbers except with more toughness (better rebounder/defense).
