This is the second of five installments of my position-by-position rankings, where I consider the four major factors that affect a player's total value: talent (statistical performance), affordability, age and potential. To see a more detailed explanation of my approach, give my point guard rankings a gander. To summarize a player's stats, I'll use the NBA Efficiency statistic, which is defined as: EFF = ((Points + Rebounds + Assists + Steals + Blocks) - ((Field Goals Att. -...

    Peitrus was looking pretty good at the end of the season. If he gets consistent burn there is some serious potential there.
    He is just kind of a spaz though. He will make an amazing block or dunk or something & then set a screen out of bounds.
    Can't decide how I feel about him.
    Good list though.

      Do you think he will come back to the warriors next season?

    Maybe I missed something but you have 'Buke and Peitrus on this list but no Monta Ellis?? are you just making up numbers?

      He had him on the pg list.

        My mistake then must have missed him on that list

          I think he does play the 2 more often i think. Hard to tell on the Warriors what position anyone is playing, though. lol.

          i think i should proof read so i don't say i think a hundred times. lol.

          Ellis will *probably* play PG if he signs with a new team or if Baron Davis doesn't re-sign. I think most teams see Monta as a scoring point guard.

          I'm hoping neither of those come true ;-)

    Again, proud to be a Clippers fan..........

    I take more issue with who he actually classifies as a shooting guard than the actual ranking of the players.

      I get my stats (and positions) from DougStats.com. That said, there is room for improvement with how players are classified. Who would you move out of SG? I'll definitely move Kyle Lowry to PG next time I do these lists.
  • phillyfitz
    that list is crap, t-mac and ray allen are WAY WAY WAY too low
    • JohnPaulsen
      Placard_complete_small
      You understand that age and salary are a part of these rankings, right?
      • phillyfitz
        so you would rather see mike miller or stephen jackson on your team than tracy mcgrady for less money?
  • RocketFan13
    I think McGrady is probaly a solid three man...

    Kevin Martin at number 5!!

    • JohnPaulsen
      Placard_complete_small
      He's a great value at that salary level.
  • Reds1214
    Placard_complete_small
    wow the money these guys make...
    All though Tony Parker is old for his salary he is decent and I would put him much higher
    • JohnPaulsen
      Placard_complete_small
      I like him, but there's not much upside there or longevity left, so his value isn't too high.
