I forgot a few people, here is my fixed list PG 1. Paul 2. Rose 3. Rondo 4. Parker 5. Williams/Westbrook SG 1. Kobe 2. Wade 3. Gordon 4. Harden 5. Manu/Johnson SF 1. Lebron 2. Durant 3. Carmelo 4. Pierce 5. Gay PF 1. Dirk 2. Aldridge 3. Love 4. Bosh 5. Griffin C 1. Howard 2. Bynum 3. Cousins 4. Gasol 5. Jefferson
Derrick Rose is not top 5 point guard right now. Even without injury. He averaged 23.4 points on 35% shooting, 4 rebounds and 6.6 assists vs. Miami Heat in last year's ECF. He shot 18% in the clutch and missed many clutch free throws. Nothing new: <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pDvbTrE8VBo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I agree with everything, but I think Joe Johnson is 3rd best SG. Harden, no hate as he's one of my favorite players in the L, is not the 4th best SG. Garnering way too much credit. He's a tremendous SG and soon can be the 3rd best, but right now he's not better than Joe Johnson.
Harden is way better than Johnson. He is basically a point guard, which he played in college. His efficency was ridiculous. He was most efficent guard in past 13 seasons.
Our 2011-12 starters in comparison...not bad, just a star away. Now it has been blown up, ready for the rebuild.
PG Paul, Rondo SG Kobe, Wade SF Lebron, Durant PF LaMarcus Aldridge, Nowitzki, Duncan C: Howard, Bynum, KG

I can honestly say . .. originally I wanted to see if any of them were possible for the Rockets. [I knew none were on the Rockets] Most look like they probably locked up on their teams I guess we need to look at 5~10 and see if it is possible for them to grow into a 1-5 type player Rocket River thanks for the education guys
