    According to this:

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/blog/?p=1351

    So apparently Lebron, CP3, Wade, Ginobli, Duncan, and Roy are better than Kobe.

    Following immediately after Kobe, 8th best player in the league, is AK-47.

    And Ronny Turiaf > KG, Pierce. Damn we shouldn't have let him go.

    Who are the people who come up with these rankings? Just wondering, is this BG7? :confused:

    You're welcome.

    It was an eye opener for me. We overrate Kobe greatly. I shall now urge Mitch to trade him for Manu Ginobli.

    pg: Fisher
    sg: Ginobli
    sf: Walton
    pf: Gasol
    c: Bynum

    Dynasty.

    It's finally time we got a guard with some IQ, defense, and ball handling skills.

    True. All signs point to BG7.

    He made a smart move by not including Gordon as the #1 player. Unfortunately for him, we are not idiots.

    Not sure, I'm not a stat geek. I think they're pretty useless.

    I actually agree with Thrilla. I think stats are overrated for the most part. I think it is common sense when a player is better than another player. You can tell by the way they play and their impact of the game, stats = overrated.

    Stats are a good starting point, but Hollinger made a joke of himself last season after Kobe became the top PER player with his old formula. He decided to tweak the formula to drop Kobe down to #3 behind LeBron and Paul.
