fleung22 1 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Allstar game all done. Predictions for All NBA Team?Seems like Kobe, Lebron and Dwight has locked SG, SF and C respectively. Paul is probably leading for PG but if Deron keeps up the way he's going he'll definitely challenge. The guys been amazing in the last month or two.PF? Duncan, Dirk?? hmm...probably Dirk for now.

Jadaki 0 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Kobe doesn't have SG locked, especially now that he doesn't have to put up the numbers he used to. Wade is putting up MVP numbers this year on both ends of the court. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 The All NBA team is made up of 2 guards, 2 forwards and one center. They don't break it down into point guards, power forwards etc.If you classify Kobe as a guard then one of Wade, Kobe and Paul won't be on the first team.If I could I would classify Kobe as a forward and my all NBA team would be PaulWadeKobeLebron SupermanIf Duncan is classified as a forward I will shit a brick and burn something down. He's a freaking center not a forward. The red rocket is not the starting center on the Spurs. Link to post Share on other sites

CaneBrain 95 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 if Wade is not on the All-NBA team it is a travesty. this is the best year he has ever had on an individual basis. it isn't close either. never seen a guard block so many shots (and usually at big times). Wade, Lebron, and Kobe have to be on there. It's a bum list without any of those three.My list:G: Wade and KobeF: Lebron and DuncanC: HowardI could live with Paul over Duncan if they can make Kobe a forward. Link to post Share on other sites

This debate has been beaten to death by John Hollinger and Bill Simmons. Deron Williams is a great player. Chris Paul is appreciably better. Both statistically and otherwise.

CaneBrain 95 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 for me it is a 11a sort of thing, both very, very goodI think its a 1 and 2 situation. Not knocking Deron Williams. Just there is a clear difference between them. There is also a clear difference between Deron and the #3 guy (take your pick from Parker, Billups, Harris, Nash, Nelson and maybe even Rondo). The third thru eighth best point guards in the NBA are really close, imo. Williams is a cut above them and Paul is a cut above that. Link to post Share on other sites
