    Heart? dude was a baller to the extreme, one of the most memorable and talented players to grace the court. I'd take a prime Iverson over a lot of these guys not named Kobe or Wade.

    People are forgetting how good A.I. and Vince were in the early to mid 2000s. As good as Manu was and Harden now, Iverson and Carter could be unstoppable at times.

    VC and T-Mac should be listed as SFs. Rip Hamilton, Allen, AI, Kobe, Wade, Harden, Manu are all true SGs.

    Wade has been a better player than Kobe arguably. Defensively Wade has been far better.

    I can see the argument for Wade. There were moments where I couldn't believe what I was seeing. contrary to what many think, he is still a great player. He just knows how good Lebron is and how much of his game he will have to sacrifice in order to win a ring.

    T-Mac interchanged between SG and SF on the fly. Heck, you could say he was playing both positions simultaneously. He was that talented.

    Alot of the good SFs are very versatile and can play the 2 position just as well. It's not like there's a big difference between a 2 and a 3 anyways.

    And if that isn't enough to ignore the article.. he also said.

    "It’s no secret that shooting guard is the most shallow position in the National Basketball Association."​

    The most "shallow position" since the "Jordan Era" is Center. by Far.

    No way Wade is over Kobe.

    Kobe is top 10 all time, wade is not.

    I don't get it. Someone posted this link from some random site, and it has Kobe as #1. This seems implausible that people on this site would promote Kobe. What is going on around here?

    What is Wall St Cheat Sheet? Is this the BleacherReport of stock trading? With a sports article thrown in?

    It's downright laughable and this website/author should lose all credibility when he can remember the pseudo-greatness of Vince Carter but fail to remember Dwyane Wade.

    Although Wade is a crybaby bi*tch, he does deserve to be on this list without a doubt.

    OT: I'm figuring out how some people are actually arguing that Ginobili was a better player than Gervin ... people are so much a prisoner of the moment.

    He probably means "now". There's Harden, a banged up Wade... The rest of them would hardly even be top 10 SGs 10 years ago.

    Wade is a top 5 SG of all time. In discussion for top 3.
