    It has to be Harden with Gordon and Ginobili injured most of the season.

    Good poll.

    I'd rather have Paul George over Wes Matthews, guy is hurting me in fantasy basketball!

    And George is a stud on both ends.

    Manu.

    Manu has been one of the most underrated players of the past decade. He is a flopper-extreme but the guy can flat out play and is clutch.

    Duncan should be thankful he has had Manu and Parker on his team, two guys that IMO just dont get enough credit.

    It would be Manu Ginobili, but he's just not healthy enough.

    Then on talent alone, it's a tossup between Gordon and Harden, but since only one is healthy, I'll go with Harden.

    If you're going to include Demar Derozan, Monta Ellis, Evan Turner, Wes Matthews, etc etc, then you might as well include Kevin Martin too.

    The fact that guys like this can even be included in such a poll shows how weak the SG position has become in the NBA. It's shocking to realize that the only sure thing, every-season all-star SGs in the NBA right now are Kobe and Wade. I feel like there are a LOT more all-star level PGs, SFs, and PFs.

    Anyway... getting off topic. In my opinion, it's VERY close between Manu and Harden. Manu's age has been catching up with him the last few years, and his inability to stay healthy is starting to really hurt his value... but if he were 100% healthy all the time then he would win easily.

    A healthy Manu is still a very, very good player. Him and Harden are virtually on the same level if he is healthy. But you can't say he's distinctively better than Harden.

    There should be no argument really with the statement that Harden is the 3rd best SG in the NBA.

    I am actually surprised that Reke is getting a tie for third in this poll. I suspect if you take away a certain person's double vote and if you had all the SGs in the poll, such as Vince Carter, Courtney Lee, RayRay, and KMart, that Reke actually would rate down around 10. And that is too high for him. He's one of the absolute worst SGs in the NBA with his inefficiency. In fact, his teammate, Marcus Thornton is a better SG than he is....on offense....and defensively.

    Reke reaks.
