Utah Jazz vs. San Antonio Spurs 7/7/2015 @7pm Mountain Time *Official SL Game Thread*

Going by PER, Hayward was 5th, Favors 6th, and Gobert 6th. But PER severely undervalues defense, which I think puts Gobert and Favors into the top 5.

Top SF
----------
1. Duh
2. KD
3. Melo
4. Kawhi
5. Draymond

Top PF
-----------
1. AD
2. Blake Griffin
3. Aldridge
4. Love
5. Bosh

C
-------
1. M. Gasol
2. D. Howard
3. Demarcus Cousins
4. Deandre Jordan
5. Drummond

Hayward is close to top 5

You're out of your god damned mind, lol
 
Putting Draymond Green above Gordon Hayward and DeAndre Jordan above Rudy Gobert isn't being realistic by any metric.

I wouldn't necessarily take Draymond over Hayward, but its close.

I would take Favors over both Love and Bosh next season and going forward and over Aldridge in 3.

I would place Gobert at 4 on that list. I wouldn't trade him for anyone on the list straight up (contracts included). I value D over O in a center and he is going to be the best defensive center in the NBA next year.

Draymond Green is not a small forward. He would be for the Jazz because they have a better C and PF, but he's not a small forward.

And it's just my opinion, but Melo and Bosh shouldn't be on the list until they can prove that they're healthy moving forward.

I'd easily take Hayward over Green, Favors and Green over Love and Bosh and Gobert over Drummond and Cousins. . . Horford should be on there somewhere. A number of the guys on your list are due to take a step back. I think it's entirely possible for Gobert, Favors and Hayward all to be in the top 5 for their position conversation next year if Burks, Hood and Exum play well. Team success goes a long way toward forming opinions on individual players.

Green isn't even a SF.....

He played the entire season at 4. He is much less effective as a 3.
