    There are not 264 players that are better than Clint Capela in the NBA.

    I think that Covington should be higher. He's a good 3+D wing.
    Ofcourse he plays in Philly and you can't take their players' stats at face value but still.
    He would start at at least five teams I can think of besides Philly. (Memphis, OKC, Lakers, Nuggets, Celtics). Shows also how shallow the wing positions are in the league atm.

    197. Jeremy Lin
    196. Anthony Morrow
    195. Trey Burke

    184. Devin Harris
    183. Evan Fournier
    182. O.J. Mayo

    No Rockets today, current list is as follows:

    Big jump from Dellavedova, I wonder if that is just his epic two games in the finals or body of work from last year.

    I refuse to believe in a world where Kevin Garnett, no matter how old he is, is worse than Frank Kaminsky, Devin Harris and Rodney Hood

    He's so old though, he was barely good for like 15 min a game in Minnesota. He's a 7/7 guy at most right now.

    At first I thought Brewer was a little low but 165 isn't that bad, there are 150 starters in the NBA.

    Varejao comes from an achilles. He is wayyy too high in this list. Also WCS. He's a rookie in a dysfunctional team who won't even get to start and isn't that polished.
    I also have some doubt how productive Winslow will be but we shall see. I would prefer Stanimal over him.

    So the majority of the Rockets roster is in the top 180. I wonder how that compares with last year.

    Randle no.155..Why? What has he shown exactly? That he can't finish over length in Summer League and taht he has tunnel vision?
    These ranks suck.
    Rookies shouldn't be even included.

    Kind of surprised Bev fell as much as he did but I will say defensively he was worse last season than two years ago. Although offensively I thought he was better.

    He was around 2-3 spots lower than Lin last year.

    Lin was 100 last year.

    Nurkic flew up the list... Well deserved though.
