    For the last time, Dwyane Wade is not better than Kobe Bryant....Blake ain't better than Dirk..And Chris Paul is the best PG in the league..

    PG: Chris Paul

    Deron Williams ... toss up b/w Westbrook, Rose, Parker, Rondo for #3-5

    SG: Kobe Bryant

    Wade, Ellis/Johnson, #5 is a toss up b/w everyone else

    SF: Lebron James/Durant

    Melo (he's falling the ? off right now, he use to be my #1 SF) #4-5 is a toss up b/w Rudy, Iggy, Pierce

    PF:Dirk/Bosh

    #3-5 is a toss up b/w Gasoft, Amare, Love, Aldridge, Griffin

    C: Howard

    Bynum, #3-5 is a toss up b/w everyone else

    Pierce always been kinda underrated....he has some of the best footwork in the game behind Kobe and hes not afraid of the last shot.....he's one drawing the foul ass ? tho almost every possession.....but hes def top 5 SF without question

    i'd Put Chris Bosh over Blake Griffin to , Griffin is a Elite Talent but his Skill set aint ? ' with Bosh , Bosh cant shoot like hell and he's better with the basketball

    ya'll keep getting caught up in Griffin Highlights, the talent is there and he puts up nice stats but he lacks a skill set , he cant shoot for ? and he damn sure cant hit FT's

    gimmie Bosh over Griffin (pause)

    Hate Leaving Noah out cuz i love his defensive effort and energy , he's so terrible with the basketball though i dont think the dude has one move Lol ..but damn he plays his heart out and brings it on defense.

    i Need People to Explain why Griffin over Pau Gasol???

    Gasol Rebounds just as much as him , and it's not even close who's better with the basketball in their hand , Griffin scores a little more but Gasol Skill set ? all over Griffins

    That 5 spot was just a personal preference, no knock on Gasol though

    Gasol lack of aggressiveness is why i put Blake over him, sure Gasol is more skilled but the ? lets little ? like Lebron beast him up.
