Mutumbo over Zo? Alonzo-13.6, 10, and 3.1 Dikembe(I'll even use the better ones from Atlanta)-9, 14.1, 2.8 And Zo played in a meager 13 games. He's a much better scorer, and almost as good a rebounder and defender.

Okay...Its obviously an opinion, just like your's. Center 1. Shaquille O'neal 2. Alonzo Mourning 3. Dikembe Mutumbo 4. Theo Ratliff 5. David Robinson Power Forward 1. Kevin Garnett 2. Tie-Tim Duncan and Chris Webber 3. Karl Malone 4. Antonio McDyess(Wallace probably takes in terms of talent, but I factored in attitude here) 5. Rasheed Wallace Small Forward 1. Shareef Abdur-Rahim 2. Grant Hill* 3. Shawn Marion 4. Dirk Nowitzki 5. Paul Pierce *Because of his injury, I have no idea how well he can play he could easily move up or down a couple spots. In which case Lamar Odom would take the #5 spot, and everone else would move up a spot. Shooting Guard 1. Tracy McGrady* 2. Kobe Bryant* 3. Vince Carter* 4. Allen Iverson* 5. Tie-Michael Finley and Ray Allen* *Michael Jordan will probably take one of these spots when(Or if) he comes back Point Guard 1. Gary Payton 2. Jason Kidd 3. Steve Francis 4. Stephon Marbury 5. Tie-Baron Davis, Sam Cassell, and Terrell Brandon
Based on where all of these players will play this season. Center 1. Shaq 2. Zo 3. Mutombo 4. DRob 5. Ratliff close: Divac Power Forward 1. Duncan 2. Garnett 3. Webber 4. Malone 5. McDyess close: Walker, Brand, & Sheed Small Forward 1. Hill 2. Nowitzki 3. Marion 4. Odom 5. SAR close: Pierce, Jamison Shooting Guard 1. McGrady 2. Jordan 3. Bryant 4. Carter 5. Iverson If MJ doesn't come back, Ray Allen takes spot 5. Each of these 6, however, are very close. Point Guard 1. Payton 2. Kidd 3. Marbury 4. Francis 5. B. Davis close: Stockton, Armstrong, Cassell 5.
I'm too lazy to list 5 players at each position so I'll just do the best players at each position. PG- Wink SG- Kobe SF- Vince Carter PF- Duncan C- Shaq
Top five players at each position...based on performance in critical situations and ability to create their own shots. Center Matt Geiger Raef LaFrentz Alonzo Mourning Dikembe Mutombo Shaquille O'Neil PF Tim Duncan Kevin Garnett Karl Malone Rasheed Wallace Chris Webber SF Shareef Abdur-Rahim Tracy McGrady Dirk Nowitzki Latrell Sprewell Pedra Stojakovic SG Kobe Bryant Vince Carter Allan Houston Allen Iverson Reggie Miller PG Sam Cassell Steve Francis Stephon Marbury Gary Payton Jason Williams University (Bibby Who?)
