Top 5 at each position

[Jukeman]

Yea Perk should be getting way more easy looks than he's getting.

He was damn near shooting 60% since becoming a starter and wasnt a punchline of a joke in those years with the Celtics.

This. Funny how people forget he was averaging 11 a game at 60% shooting.

Nothing to do with Rondo being a great PG though.

One could argue about Perk's injury tho.

..But if you watch the games, its obvious that he is not being used like he was in Boston.

Re: Top 5 at each position

That would be a really really weak argument.

Re: Top 5 at each position

LoL

what 3-4 shooters did the Celtics have this post season?

And I almost rolled over in my grave when someone compared Monta to AI...WTF?

I said he's a Allen Iverson clone, but I didn't say he's equal or better. His game is a mirror image of A.I. without the elite ball-handling but with (a little) better size and athleticism.

He'll never reach the level of accomplishments that Iverson did, but that doesn't mean his game (offense, defense and intangibles) can't be compared. Christ, people compare any big with a decent face-up+post game to Tim Duncan. I don't go "WTF" and that is far more deserved in that instance.

Idk, I'll agree that he could remind someone of AI...

But I also when I heard people saying Kobe is a Jordan clone.

As for intangibles?

AI's heart alone makes the DNA a non match.

So...

With the lack of SG and C's, SF's big enough to play the 4...

How long are we away from seeing teams going with a 3 guard lineup permanently?

Re: Top 5 at each position

If Miami keeps doing good, not long. Teams will start to take that model I think.

Chalmers, Wade, Battier, James, Bosh worked beautifully in the Finals against Westbrook, Harden, Sefolosha, Durant, and Ibaka. 2 small lineups in the NBA Finals.

Not saying they're the first to do it, just that it worked.

[iAM-IncReDiBLe-]

I feel like one of the main reasons that small lineup worked is be side Wade an LeBron are elite players at their position and LeBron can play all most every position on the court.

I agree with most of this except for Derrick Favors lol

I just don't see how you could rank him higher than Griffin, Aldridge, KG, Z-Bo, Paul Millsap, Bosh, Josh Smith, Boozer, David West...the list goes on.

Re: Top 5 at each position

Derrick Favors in a Top 5 list of "best" players?



The fuhhh!!??

Couldn't tell you who Al Hartford is either. Sounds like a NASCAR driver.

Re: Top 5 at each position

Lol I kind of went personal right there.

Should of actually be Paul Milsap

[ojandpizza]

lol @ the dude bashing Horford.. He may not be a top five center but he isn't that far off c'mon.

Re: Top 5 at each position

What is it with NBA fans and the incessant need to rank things every two weeks?
