Kobe isn't a top 5 player. Rondo is okay, but Love? Come on OP, you should know better than to question Flip Saunders
Those doesn't really belong... Rondo and Kobe shouldn't be in the top 5 anyway. Even if Kobe is scoring tons of points, his team is struggling so much. Rondo is a good PG but he's not top 5. But I am surprised that Flip puts Melo ahead of Lebron... I don't care what anyone else says but Melo is not on the same class as Lebron.
You misinterpret what I saying. I wasn't agreeing with the op. I questioned him having rondo and Kobe on his wishlist.
What's the problem with Durant being ranked no1 player in the league. Either in an MVP race, or a 'pure talent' race, the guy is unbelievably good. Sure, Lebron is a heckuva basketball player as well, but there's a struck match between Lebron and Durant in terms of ability. And Durant is playing slightly better ball at the moment. Ok, Melo at 2 is a stretch, but no doubt he's in the top 5 right now.
