I think Chris Paul over Durantula is a wild one, c'mon Joe, Durant's not better than Paul? And where's the love for Russel Westbrook? Josh Smith of the Hawks? C'mon Joe, they sould easily be 14~15's. Derrick Rose? O.J. Mayo? I think Mayo should at least be over Curry. It's your list though, everybody have their own opinions.

Mayo isn't really all that great, and I need to see more out of Westbrook. With Durant, he just doesn't play defense at all. CP3 is a point guard- that carries more weight. I am not a fan of Derrick Rose, while Josh Smith never shows up offensively as much as you would like him to. Smith is overrated, he just makes highlight-reel plays.

For being stuck on a terrible team, O.J. still puts up his stats. Westbrook has pretty much proved himself helping Durant, and he doesn't need to score 30 every game when you can just hand it to Durant really. Durant doesn't really need to play a whole lot of defense, save your energy for offense. CP really is overrated, he gets injured too much and all he really has is the nasty shot. Not being a fan of somebody shouldn't get him off the list. C'mon man, I thought we were writing unbiased posts man! But either way, Josh Smith isn't known for his offense, he's known for his defense really. That's like saying you expect Durant to be the best defensive player in the league since he's the best offensive and he's overrated. If that's the case, LeBron's way way way way way overrated.

Josh Smith sucks. Kevin Durant is not overrated- I am no Colin Cowherd- but Paul is better. CP3 is a great defender, passer, and scorer off the dribble. Unlike some other point guards, he actually has a shot. LeBron is a monster at offensive and defensive so no idea on that. Biased? Point guards get more weight because they are usually the most important players on the team. They are quarterbacks. Actually, it is easier to play better on bad teams as a star. People just pass you the ball and you own the court. Look at AI in the early 2000s. Mayo gets assists because of the offense Memphis plays. Plus, Rudy Gay is there and he plays a great catch and shoot game. I wouldn't exactly call Memphis terrible. They had a winning record.

Paul is amazing, but I just think Durant's better, but that's my opinion. LeBron's only thing on defense is the block from behind on fastbreaks, which really doesn't count as defense. He's not a good defender. I was talking about Rose and Smith when I wrote the unbiased thing, my bad for not clearifying. Actually, you'd say that, but it's harder to play when everybody knows you're getting the ball, it's like giving the RB the ball on every play, everybody's gunning for you. AI's AI though, nobody could really stop him in his prime. I wouldn't call Memphis a good team. But hey, I'm only here for posting about football, this is your territory, I was just giving my opinion. My bad if I sounded like I was questioning you.

No man, your great. I probably should have stuck Rose in there. Your opinions are fine, and I think they are right on. You can post basketball stuff if you want to, there are no limits.

Thanks, but I think I won't really post about basketball too much. Maybe a little from time to time I guess.
