    Dude, He's gunning at over 40% from three point land - the only way for him to be less streaky would be if he missed more.

    Exactly. He has Chris Paul's moves, Dwight Howard's power, Lebron James' crab dribble, Dwayne Wade's intensity, Reggie Miller's shooting stroke, and Ron Artest's salary. Truly the greatest ever... and we should retire his jersey next game, even though he is still playing.

    OK, name the 12 small fowards that you would rather have over Artest.

    Tracy McGrady was a superstar in the playoffs. No one in their right mind could argue that. When it mattered. As much as we hate him now, he always came through when we needed him: The playoffs.

    These will all be debatable, and I'm not suggesting that I want to get rid of Artest, but I just thought I'd throw out some food for discussion. Here's my list, in a fairly descending order.

    LeBron James
    Kevin Durant
    Danny Granger
    Andre Iguodala
    Joe Johnson
    Carmelo Anthony
    Paul Pierce
    Vince Carter
    Caron Butler
    --------- (it drops off about right here)
    Stephen Jackson
    Gerald Wallace
    Rashard Lewis
    Corey Maggette
    Shawn Marion
    Charlie Villanueva
    Josh Smith
    Hedo Turkoglu
    Tayshaun Prince
    Lamar Odom
    John Salmons
    Jeff Green

    Maybeit was those games where he would just chuck away or his decision-making during crunch time that left a sour taste in my mouth, but I do admit he's shooting better than I thought.

    In no particular order (I do have some combo guards listed):
    Lebron James
    Hedo Turkoglu
    Danny Granger
    Paul Pierce
    *healthy* Tracy McGrady
    Kevin Durant
    Caron Butler
    Vince Carter
    Josh Smith
    Joe Johnson
    Carmelo Anthony

    Basically a toss-up depending on the circumstances:
    Andre Iguodala
    Gerald Wallace
