Total joke. Lillard was near All Star last season. He was 12th in the league in scoring. 12th!! What's this 55 crap?
Ok it was actually #42 and it was SBNation. There was a huge thread here on it. Still a terrible ranking for Lillard in 2017. ESPN has him in the the top40 today! http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2013/8/19/4618154/top-100-nba-players-2017-damian-lillard
With only 33 coming up and still two guys not mentioned, it looks like they think very highly of Dame and Aldridge. If Aldridge is an all star, I suppose he should be top 20.
They have Khawai Leonard at #34 and Mike Conley at #32.… I must be crazy! Maybe I think there are better players in the league than there really is because this seems way to high for both! Sent from my baller ass iPhone 5 FAMS!
So Dame and LMA are top 30! We have our 1a and 1b... in case none of the Blazer fans didn't already know =]
Khawai (toughest short name to type ever?) might actually be ranked too low. Conley is probably reasonable, but it's crazy to think that he's in the #10-15 range for point guards and #32 overall.
I love that Lillard is going to be in the top 30 but I worry expectations are now ridiculously high for him and he won't be able to reach them which will lead to lots of overreactions in the media. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk now Free
Woohoo! Trade him fast before GMs hear that this is the opinion of a few writers, not scouts. The same writers who get all their Blazer information from the local Portland media. So we read nothing but glowing reviews about Pritchard in the national media.
