    I agree Josh Howard should be in there too

    I don't understand the love for Paul Pierce. If this were my list, he'd be hanging out with Stojakovic at the end. Is he better than I give him credit for?

    If that's the case where is T-Mac's 2003 MVP when he put up 32, 6.5 and 5.5 on the sorriest team in the league.

    That being said, I could agree with the top 3 based on last season only. Pierce and Lebron had career years compared to T-Mac's worst season since he left Toronto. But on any given night not one of these dudes can be as unstoppable as T-Mac.

    He definitely is, and he can do everything. He is not afraid of throwing his body around to take some hits, not many players on that list can say that, including our own TMac.

    and lebron's team isn't very good outside of him. so if you want to put in qualifiers on his accomplishments then you need to give lebron respect for pushing his crappy team that was never supposed to have a chance.

    Don't worry guys, he put ANTAWN Jamison at #8 :rolleyes:

    Typical, "what have you done for me lately" sportswriter... Now that PP got his extension, we'll see if he's still ranked #2 a year from now... ;)

    I believe out of the 3 : Ball Handling, Court Vision, Rebounding T-mac is better than Lebron except when it comes to Rebounding. Lebron is an exceptional talent thats undeniable but the way he is overhyped is ridiculous.

    I think TMac should be #2. If healthy, he is much better than Paul Pierce.

    Some of the SF's higher on the scale are arguable. But the top 3, that's pretty solid. T-Mac got a generous rating considering last year. Paul Pierce, in my opinion, always gets shafted. That dude is a player. Lebron is an unbelievable talent. If he can keep it going, then he's legit, and living up to the crazy hype. T-Mac always has the phrase "if healthy" in anything ever written about him now. Writer already said, on raw talent alone he earned the 3 spot. That's saying a crap load.

    I don't care what they say, T-Mac will be better than LeBron next season and live up to his jersey number.

    i guess the only reason why ppl underrated paul pierce is he isn't explosive. he scores consistently but is not as explosive as tmac lebron or kobe.

    i think you're right but part of what worries people is that he's had the same problem more then once and in the same area. t-mac has actually had a fairly healthy career, a lot more than people give him credit for, so i expect him to be back to his dominant self this coming season.

    How can LeBron be "not a winner", he has gone farther than T-Mac ever had. Let's not forget, T-Mac played in the Eastern Conference for most of his career as well.

    LeBron put up a triple double while scoring nearly 50 points against Wade and the Heat, he is a serious talent. To say that T-Mac beats him at EVERYTHING except for rebounding is highly underrating James. You can say T-Mac is a better shooter, but what good is it if he shoots around 40% compared to James who has shot 47 and 48 the past two years?
