both this list, and and Kings GM's list are good, but  this one seems a little more indepth.

The only thing lacking IMO, is why are these players listed as they are?

What criteria are you using, or is it all opinion?

but well done to the both of you! :D

i think this one is much more accurate

It's all just opinion. A lot of them are just so close togethether, that they're interchangeable. So, it's not all that important...

yes, but Lebron is not SG and Dirk is not SF. even if he (dirk) is, i don't think he's better then kirilenko or marion. and no way billups is second best pg in the league IMO. i guess you gave an advantage to the players with better team records.

Then Baron, Peja and Mihm wouldn't be ranked where they are.

LeBron played SG half the year.  Dirk has played SF for the past 3 years.

but Dirk is listed as a PF for the last 2 seasons :?:

Doesn't matter, he has been played at SF for three seasons. Have you not noticed?

As for the point guards, most of them are so close together in terms of overall talent that they could be changed around and it wouldn't make a difference. Let's call it a 10 way tie for first place...  8)
Since Dirk is considered a SF, I would say that he is the best one in the league. His ratings are incredible. Marion isn't far behind though, and AK is a close 3rd.

as far as ratings goes, somehow, i always look at who would i want more on my team. i'd take both, marion and kirilenko over dirk if there is a chance for it. although, dirk is no doubt, fantastic player

I think that after I would become (I am not saying I am!) the SSBA Champion, people will still not give the Clippers any respect. Just like in the real NBA.

No Ben Gordon?? I can't believe it!!

What about some honerable mention for Maggette, Childress, Jones??

Yeah, Gordon deserves to be up there. He's remarkably putting up very nice assist numbers with only C+ handles. But there are a bunch of other players that I think I missed, too. Too many very good point guards, not enough spots. With Maggette, his defense is just too poor. Those in the honorable mention category are slightly better, in my opinion. Except for maybe Allan Houston, so Maggette could be placed there. Childress isn't there just yet, and Jones is not worth it playing the backup 2/3.

OK I understand... thanks for the props for Gordon though. He is playing very well. And indeed, I love his assists for a C+ handles.

Check the depth charts.

Hoffa = C
Dampier = PF
Dirk = SF
