    In case anyone needs proof that this player ranking system is a complete fraud just look at who occupies the number 17 slot.

    Shaq behind such notables as Brad Miller and Micheal Redd.

    If sportsline is not going to take the time to at least make it realistic then why print it at all.

    The biggest flaw in this ranking is that it did not take each player's team ranking into consideration. No one on a team that has a record of 1-19 should be on this list.

    That's even better. Shaq #47.:D :D :D

    I think the least evil rating system being widely used so far is nba.com's effeciency rating system. Although it still weighs too much on scoring. Scoring is the most overrated stats these days.

    Yeah, isn't this fantasy tracking? Fantasy tracking is completely different from trying to determine who is the more highly ranked player on an objective basis.

    Not sure about the ESPN ranking. This sportline ranking does not seem to be for fantasy basketball. Yao's ranking dropped more than 8 points while his stats almost all gone up from last season. Fantasy basketball follows tightly to the statistics.

    So what are the ranking criteria? Do they look at the teams or just individual records? That's not very fair for team players. Selfish players of course will have better numbers

    Well, I'm sure they're not hurting my feelings. Our stats may be down, but our wins are up...and wins are definitely not an overrated stat.
