Yea, KAT was literally my first thought of who shouldn't be on this list. I don't know who exactly should be ahead of him but there's no way the twolves have 2 top 22 players and presumably one of the best defenders in Gobert.
Watching that game last nite I was disgusted by him and by Rudy GET YOU BIG @SS UP AND DO SOMETHING . . .ANYTHING!!! They game was so far out of hand and he only had 4 pts. . . then made some meaningless effort to get to double digits. . . Rocket River
Didn’t see this posted yet and is the best existing thread I could find for this. The Ringers post finals top 125 : https://nbarankings.theringer.com/ Rockets 93. Sengun Notables 19. Harden 22. Brown 36. Mobley 40. Irving 42. Beal 51. FVV 54. Lopez 57. Barnes 60. Banchero 65. Cunningham 69. Giddey 84. Wagner 94. Cam Johnson 97. Westbrook(lol….STILL being overrated) 109. Reaves 124. Herb Jones 125. Brooks
The colors in the top 5 progress nicely, although I'd switch Giannis and KD's positions and it'd be perfect.
