Tom Nissalke postgame show

I'm not sayin I agree with Nisalke, just that I suspect he had some particular facet of Deron's game in mind, whatever it was. I have listened to many of his broadcasts and, although he often praises Deron, he aint no Deron fanboy. I have heard him be bluntly critical of Deron at times, too.
 
A lot of "experts" disagree with you here. Again, I don't know what Nisalke said, exactly, or why. But I'm sure he wasn't suggesting that Deron is better than Stockton.

Who has Deron has a top 10? What is, "a lot?" Who on this list does Deron beat out?

1. Lebron
2. Wade
3. Kobe
4. Durant
5. Dwight
6. Bosh
7. Dirk
8. Roy
9. Pau
10. Drose
 
Whatever Thriller. You make you list, others make theirs. I don't think guys like Rose, for example, has been named 2nd team all-NBA yet (which implies top 10). I've seen quite a few put Deron as a top 10 player in their lists. Larry Brown said Deron was a top 5 "player," emphasizin that he wasn't talkin about top 5 point guards, in the league, just for one example.
 
Deron was told by his doctors to rest this summer. He missed a lot of pre-season games, and is not in ideal condition. But everyone on this board seems to want to judge the whole year on the basis of the first 4-5 games. Whatever makes em happy, I guess. Just kinda funny that Deron gets discounted on a Jazzfan board while other fans and commentators around the country gush about him, ya know?

Roy and Rose certainly. Bosh probably. So I have him at 7 and that is the consensus from most fans around the league.
 
Guys, you're forgetting something; Tom Nissalke is ****ING OLD.

I appreciate that he's still around, but he needs to stop talking.
 
You are kidding right???? Drose and Bosh are not top 15.

Bosh is one of the best bigmen in the game. And Drose is nearly averaging EVERY SINGLE GAME what Deron just put up tonight.

Serious? Bosh (none of his success has translated to winning), Roy (bad knees, always has, not athletic and not particularly big or strong, I also don't sense a ton of passion out of him either), and Rose BY A MILE. Rose is quick off the dribble and can jump, what else? His court vision isn't great, he's not a great passer, and he's still a suspect shooter. Besides zooming to the hoop, what is it that is so great about this kid?
 
You may be able to put him ahead of Dirk on that list as well.

Deron ahead of Dirk? You seriously think that Deron is better than Dirk Nowitzki? I'm curious, Why? Other than Deron plays for the Jazz of course.
