    I am actually very surprised that there is another GM who believes that Rockets will win title.

    Chris Paul is the best point guard in the NBA.

    From last year's version of this survey:

    Which team made the best overall moves this offseason?

    1. Oklahoma City – 43% :eek::D

    2. Boston – 25%

    3. Minnesota – 14%

    4. Houston – 11%


    Which one player acquisition will make the biggest impact?

    1. Paul George, Oklahoma City – 59% o_O

    2. Jimmy Butler, Minnesota – 17%

    3. Chris Paul, Houston – 10%


    (Those who are against acquiring Butler should note that Minnesota's inclusion was based almost completely on their acquisition of him.)

    Have you seen some of the teams that GMs manage in the NBA? Just because they have the position doesn’t mean they’re competent.

    30 x 7% = 2? We need to know who these two heroic, insightful GMs are.

    Kyrie better than CP3 or Harden as a PG? Stop it.

    To be fair those 3 gms coulda classified Harden as a PG and voted for him there.

    I’m more shocked Capela got no love for his defense.

    Still getting from 1/3 of the total votes for best player to start a team with to zero is extreme in one year.
    Shows that noone trust him to improve his D anymore.

    This should be named appropriate, useful passer as Turnovers should count.

    Thanks !

    In about 2 decades, we've managed to attract a player who dominated his position for a long time with exception to the PF position.

    Does this mean that AD, is statistically destined to wear a Rocks jersey?
