    Ben McLemore just announced he'll declare for the 2013 NBA Draft. No surprise here. He's a likely Top 5 pick.

    Wow Davis needs to bulk up if he wants to play center. He looks so small trying to guard Pau Gasol tonight. It is quite comical

    Not a big fan of their list. Seems more like a popularity list then a top 30 players list.

    Can't be right on everything! Didn't see the huge amounts of injuries that would hit the Lakers

    I pretty much agree with the sentiments on the top 30. It's a useless list, largely based on popularity, but it is a pretty decent list, and it's a good subject for conversation. I think Irving's too high, being ranked over Rondo and Rose. I also think Brook Lopez is too high, as well as Tyson Chandler (probably the New York factor going on here). I also think that they let injuries play too much into it. Yeah, Bynum's a headcase and hasn't played in a while, but he's definitely a top 30 player, and Kevin Love should be higher than #27.

    -----

    On another note, everyone's looking at the #8 seed race right now, but there's an equally interesting race for the #3 seed out West going on. The Nuggets are 53-24, the Grizz are 53-25, but the Nuggets play their next game against a San Antonio team that's trying to hold onto #1. If there's a tie, the Nuggets would get the #3, having a 3-1 advantage over the Grizz during the regular season.

    With that said, here are the two teams remaining schedules -

    Nuggets:

    San Antonio
    @ Dallas
    Portland
    @ Milwaukee
    Phoenix

    Memphis:

    @ Houston
    Clippers
    @ Dallas
    Utah

    Looking at those schedules, and knowing the Grizz have to finish out 4-0 and the Nuggets have to go 3-2 for the Grizz to finish #3, I'm just getting ready as a Grizz fan to play the Clippers in the first round. There's still a chance though that the Nuggets take two consecutive losses here, with both San Antonio and Dallas laying their lives on the line. Then again, every game the Grizz play is against a playoff/seeding bubble team. Should be interesting to follow...
