    you answered your own question.

    Thus far Kobe is on track to put up a 0-0-0 given his current return date of "maybe maybe no"

    These rankings don't make sense. Last year Derrick Rose was ranked 5th and he didn't play a single game. They should be more consistent when they are talking about "expected" contributions. Other than that I don't see a real big issue with the rankings, while I do believe both Kobe and Wade are pretty low, Harden is younger and has much more upside then the aging stars.

    OK TS% matters a lot too. Harden leads that stat by a fair margin also.

    Look at the leaders in free throws attempted. It's all the best players in the league. Great players get to the line.

    lol ESPN ratings.

    John Wall does not have the basketball acumen to beat Kobe in Paul Pierce's body...

    Harden is better than Bryant, regardless of health. Bryant was healthy last year and the teams had about the same record, the difference being Harden didn't have a DH or a Nash on his team, unlike Bryant.

    So we're not allowed to use TS%, or team record. Please tell us Cari Champion, what can we use to gauge who the better player is here?
