Top 25 Players out West-- Is KD top 12?

ex carrabba fan · 09-22-2009, 03:11 PM

For me, yes KD is a West All-Star. I know some don't think he is. Yao is exempt from this.

Best 12 Pound for Pound out West and they will be All-Stars:

1. Bryant
Duncan
Paul
Melo
Roy
Dirk
Pau
Deron
Kevin Durant
Tony Parker
Billups
12. Amare or AL

The rest of the bunch, which I won't rank because it's highly debatable.

13. AL or Amare
Nash
Kevin Martin
Aldridge
Jason Terry
Boozer
Manu
David West
Odom
Gay
Monta
Kidd
Artest

Just missed
Iverson, Josh Howard, Steph Jackson, Mayo, Biedrins, Baron, Nene, Okafor

No Okur? At least there w/ Nene and Biedrins right?

Im still taking AI over Jason Terry

ex carrabba fan · 09-22-2009, 03:33 PM

Sure throw Okur in there with the Nene's and Beidrins'

JBH3 · 09-22-2009, 03:34 PM

Greg Oden not in the top12 tsk tsk.

Greg Oden isn't in my top 40! Maybe even top 50

DC · 09-22-2009, 04:15 PM

As I said earlier, I won't compare players across positions. It makes no sense to do so.

2. Deron Williams
3. Chauncey Billups
4. Tony Parker
5. Steve Nash

SG
1. Lil Kobe
2. Brandon Roy
3. Manu
4. Iverson
5. Jason Terry

SF
1. Melo Anthony
2. Durant
3. Artest
4. Josh Howard
5. Stephen Jackson (I am sure I am missing someone)

PF
1. Duncan
2. Dirk
3. Pau
4. Amare
5. Boozer

C
1. Yao
2. Okur
3. Biedrins
4. NeNe
5. Emeka
5.

It's a pound for pound list. Try to understand DC

Sometimes when you break it down by position, it forces you to exclude better players off a top 25 list. You can most see this when you look at your center listing.

Listing inferior players like Biedrins, Okur, Emeka etc., forces you to omit superior players like Odom, Kevin Martin, Aldridge etc.

Not to mention guys like Odom/Aldridge can play multiple positions.
