[Washington Post] The Top 40 players since the ABA/NBA merger (Harden #38)

CHEESUS!

Nash, Stockton, The Glove, all buried at the bottom. Why does this league hate point guards so much?

 

Harden #38
Drexler #29

... recognize... lol

 

McGrady in top 40 despite never making the 2nd round!?!?!?!

A guy who is known as a scorer, yet is a career 19ppg guy, gets top 40 because 'he could have made it in the playoffs if he had maybe perhaps been healthy, maybe'. Oh dear. At least Carmello Anthony scored points more consistently over a longer period of time?


On a side note: agree with Tim Duncan as a top 5 guy. San Antonio's franchise history with and without Duncan is amazing reading.

 

What a bizarre list! All sorts of rankings that I disagree with. Too many to list. (Dirk in the Top Ten??) At least they're trying to "cover" the league. Ouch.

 

To me, the most skilled and could easily be no.1 had he landed in N.Y is Dream. He moved like a guard. Magic Johnson also could be number one. Did Jordan ever play center and drop 40 pts in doing so?

Don't get me wrong I know that Jordan was the face of basketball around the world and transcended the sport, his persona reached myth status, that's what the kobes and lebrons fans will never get. Jordan had shoes with Bugs bunny and world terrorist marvin the martian, you can't beat that.
But 5th for dream seems too low considering all the things he could do with a bol.

 

What a **** list.

 

where hakeem y'all?

nvm 5th

 

I like that Hakeem is the first center. He was the best, I just didn't think the general media thought so. I don't think Scottie Quitten should even be on the list. He just gravy trained off Jordan.

 

what's your favorite news source? IF you say fake Fox News then you have no leg to stand on.

 

Definitely not neocon Faux News.

 

how is chris bosh and tmac ahead of harden, and lol at dwight
