great article, surprised Dirk was put over KG but he did lead his team to a chip. Iverson and Wade should be switched in my opinion.

Pierce : Is not better and is not as much as a game changer as Dirk or Nash has been over the last few years. Pierce would the "underrated" player of the decade had he not gotten KG and Ray.
Nash makes his players better... 2 MVPs. All-NBA teams. Led the league in Assists for how many years?
Wade doesn't have that many individual accolades -

He definitely did. But his career got a HUGE boost thanks to KG and Ray. He was falling fast the year before. I know you remember that. Doc was considered a bust as a coach, and Pierce was on his way out.
T-Mac was far superior than Pierce at the both of their heights.
Pierce would be the 11th guy on the list. -
Hold up, is this based only on skill or body of work, success, accolades, and skill? Cuz if its like that pierce bodies t-mac. And lol @dabull I knew axel wasnt gonna let that pierce ? slide neither.
If axel doesnt mention pierce his name wouldnt be brought up ever lol -
At least they got number 1 right.

I'm not holding anything against him. I never said anything about the losing streak. TMac's Magic had a 20 game losing streak too, so I can't bring that into an argument.
I was just sayin he wanted out and didn't have the best of seasons the year before they won. And, that he wasn't the hottest commodities after that. KG and Ray rejuvenated his career to what it is now.
TMac at the height if his game, was much better than Pierce at the height of his game, individually speaking. -
