Do you think that might have something to do with Boozer getting the ball fed to him on every scoring possession, with 4 other scoring threats on the floor every game over the past 5 years, while Al was putting up the same/better numbers against double and triple teams with no point guard?
Give it a couple of weeks into the season for Al Jeff to pass up Boozer.
Putting Williams ahead of Dirk is a decent compliment, I'd say.

How can people say that Deron has consistently had more talent around him?
Chris Paul has had David West (legit scorer and has been All-Star) and Tyson Chandler (lob machine) and a few solid Peja seasons (dead eye three shooter). As if those guys didnt help with a lot of his numbers.
At some point someone has to point out that Deron puts up his numbers in a system with cuts and ball movement. Paul dribbles around until he scores or finds someone for a 3 or dunk. Deron wins more. Its a joke.

Rankings are so gay. It's almost as if 16 year old kids write them. I would seriously like to see GVC and kicky make a list of the top 50 players in the NBA. It would be much better than any dude on the internet besides me.
Wait, if I read the article correctly, it clearly said "we think Dwill is the #1 PG", but then they rank him as the #2. Am I reading correctly?
Id put Gasol over Dirk too, Gasol is the only player currently who demands a double team every time in post-up situations.

The writeups on Deron and Chrissy were written by 2 different guys.

Am I the only one who hopes CP3 has a tame and/or terribad/injured year?
I'm sick of all these "sure he has dealt with a ton of injuries recently, but he's still better."
Give them another year of that and we'll see what they think. Part of the reason D-Will was picked ahead of CP3 is because we knew CP3 was gonna get his **** smashed up while D-Will stays relatively healthy (knock on wood).
