Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players Many flaws, but thats in our opinion. That's his opinion.But come on... DWade 3?!?!?!
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players Exactly. Wade is WAY TOO HIGH.IMO he doesnt crack top 10.And you have heard my reasons why.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players this list is ridiculous... ron better than paul? give me a break. parker is 17? WAYYY too high. arenas should be higher.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players Exactly, this is the time of year where Arenas is playing out of his mind. He had 38, 8 and 8 against the Celtics tonight, Dogma. :winkglasses:Btw Wiz won 108-91
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players My top 25 (when healthy):1. Tim Duncan- Dude led team to 3 rings and when healthy puts up crazy numbers.2. Kobe Bryant- If he was the main leader instead of Shaq on those LA teams, would be my #1.3/4(tie) Tracy McGrady- Say what you want, when healthy is best scorer in league.3/4(tie) LeBron James- 32/7/7....yikes.5. Dwyane Wade- Extremely efficient player with amazing numbers and proven-ness.6. Allen Iverson- Led average team to Finals....33PPG and 8APG guy.7. Kevin Garnett- Ha sslowed down past 2 years, and still isn't a proven winner and can't lead a team.8. Dirk Nowitzki- Best shooting big man....possibly ever.9. Chauncey Billups- Very underrated. Unlike Nash, can perform both ends of court. 10. Amare Stoudemire- People forget just how good he was last year...he was SO good.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------11. Shaquille O'Neal12. Paul Pierce13. Elton Brand14/15 (tie). Jason Kidd14/15 (tie). Steve Nash16. Shawn Marion17. Carmelo Anthony18. Vince Carter19. Jermaine O'Neal20. Yao Ming21. Ron Artest22. Chris Bosh23. Gilbert Arenas24. Ray Allen25. Dwight HowardDWade definately deserves to be up there. IMO right behind bron. I can't believe people still overrate KG so much. Wade has done more in his career already than KG winning-wise, is a far better leader and at making teammates better, is more clutch, better scorer, etc... KG is a great player, but so fu*kin overrated. Chauncey Billuips and Kidd are also very underrated. Billuips is the best PG in the league. His team is #1 in whole league, his numbers are amazing, and he plays great D. Kidd is in same boat, except older. Nash still can't play D.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players Melo is at 10 being of how clutch he is, And hes a great player.I dont think shaq should be that high though

I'd put Brand over Stoudamire, b/c he may never be the same, in terms of athleticism after his surgery.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players Nah. VC is possibly a better scorer than Anthony and better passer, but that's about it. Anthony is better rebounder, defender, more efficient, and comes up every time in clutch.As for O'Neal, he has barely played in past few seasons, and he is very spurratic. Some games he plays terrificly, others he doesn't show up. Anthony this year is playing better than JO ever did.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players JO is actually really consistent. His injuries have been a problem, and you said when healthy. JO is easily a 20-10 player, and he leads the Pacers to the playoffs regularly. The suspension and the injury are the only times he hasn't played.I don't know, but I might put Nash ahead of Paul Pierce.

He said the Celtics sadi they would pick him with the 10th or 11th pick in the 2001 draft, but they didn't, so it motivates him more. Thank god we didn't.. where would this franchise be without Joe Johnson and Kendrick Brown (JJ got traded his rookie year)?

Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players I rank VC about as good as Pierce though, if not better, same with Ray Allen. There all on the same boat, to me.

Paul can do everything. VC can pass well, too, But Pierce's rebounding, defense and LEADERSHIP are all better.
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players ^good list. i don't know how anyone can say that Vince Carter is better than Paul Pierce. I remember last year i think on nbawire someone said Richard Jefferson was better than Pierce. :HAHAHA:
Re: HOOPSWORLD.com's Top 25 players I can see how people think Carter is better than Pierce. He is a more dangerous scorer when hot and a superior passer. I think Ray Allen isn't anywhere near Carter or Pierce. Ray Allen is a shooter. Period.

First of all his shooting puts him on the level of VC, ALONE. Ray Allen's defense i very underrated, Vince last time I check hardly played any. Ray's penetration game is very underrated as well. Ray Allen only a shooter. Smh....
