Hi...

I agree with the top 3...
I disagree with Westbrook being #5 and Kobe being #25...

Bye...

Paradigm · 10-22-2013, 04:42 PM

Kobes rank is ridiculously hating

quick someone do a NC ranking jk jk

Allen Knight · 10-22-2013, 04:46 PM

Wow at 25 smh an having chris bosh ranked above him kobe is easily top 12 still

Certain · 10-22-2013, 04:51 PM

The rankings are for this season only. Kobe Bryant can't even run right now, with the season a week away.

The bigger issue is that they didn't adjust them for injuries, such as Russell Westbrook's.

Paradigm · 10-22-2013, 04:53 PM

james harden 4 lol... seriously.

Strikta · 10-22-2013, 05:03 PM

James Harden imo is the best SG in the league right now, next to a healthy Kobe.

Certain · 10-22-2013, 05:13 PM

When totally healthy, Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade are better than James Harden. But we already know Kobe is out probably at least the first two months of the season, and Wade has had knee problems for years that tend to act up most at the end of the season. Why wouldn't you project Harden to have a better 2012-13 season?

Harden averaged 25.9 points, 5.8 assists and 4.9 rebounds a game last season. He's really good.

His skillset > Kobe/Wade. Regardless of system. He's better. It's cool. We can disagree.

uh-oh · 10-22-2013, 07:58 PM

kyrie irving number 8 tho? really?

i'll take it i guess

CAVSSSSSSS

King Ra. · 10-22-2013, 08:02 PM

Thunder is my squad and I agree with Durant being 2nd being James. Westbrook at 5? I'd say between 8-10. I feel D-Rose is 3 or 4 though. The fuck.

King Ra. · 10-22-2013, 08:02 PM

Rose >>>> Harden, tbh.

uh-oh · 10-22-2013, 08:03 PM

Cake, your analysis on basketball is putrid.

Kobe has the best offensive skill set in the league...he's 35 scoring 27+ a game still.
Harden may actually deserve a better rank...
But definitely not based on being more skilled, just younger and more athletic
