Yea Arenas is amazing, I've been pulling for the Wizards due to my loyalty to all UConn players since they have Caron Butler.

LeBron = the best player in the NBA

Kobe, Dirk, Wade = the 2nd tier (Arenas will join this group if he keeps playing like he did in the playoffs + Dwight Howard will be top 5 in a year or 2)


Best young talent in the NBA since the late 80's, IMO

there was some good ass young talent in 93/94/95 with Ghill, Cwebb, Jkidd (namin a quick few, def. way more), they just fell apart/got injured to ruin their careers. Even Jordan said he felt Hill was the most challenging to himself and hten he got hurt :(

LeBron is NOT the best player in the NBA, you have to play defense to be considered the best player.

And Dan, that man shoots like a girl, he gets no respect.

so true, if i was building a top team id want Artest minus the psycho over Lebron. He can score, pass and defend like no other. Tim Duncan's Spurs always dominate cuz he shuts down opposing PF/Cs too. A ball hog scorer can carry a team to the playoffs, but it takes the true all around players to carry a team thru the playoffs. Look at Spurs and Pistons the last 5 years...

LeBron may not be a great man defender, yet, but he is already an excellent help defender, a good defensive rebounder, and a decent shotblocker. He has all the tools to be a lockdown defender and is way ahead of the average 21-year-old in terms of D.
As far as not being the best player, then who is? Obviously short, slow Steve Nash is no better a defender than LeBron, and Kobe just got his ass torn apart by Barbosa. Dirk's not known for effort on D. The only other top guys that are far better on D than LeBron are guys like Duncan and KG, and they're just not as good as LeBron with the ball in their hands. I mean, obviously LeBron's game still has some flaws, but I don't know how you can say you'd take someone else over him.

As much as I hate him, it's Duncan. Kobe is a better defender than LeBron too, and I consider Kobe better than LeBron. I also agree with Thurman that Artest has the potential to be a top player in the NBA if he wasn't so fucking crazy, although he was pretty laid back in his time in Sacramento, and that suspension he got in the playoffs was bullshit.

Of course this could all change as soon as next season but for now I don't think so. Let's also wait to see how he does against the Pistons before we anoint him best player in the NBA.

I hate him just because of that shot. It's so awkward looking, even though he's a decent shooter, it just looks so wrong. It's like a quick chuck up or something.

This series could go either way. I wouldn't just leave suns with no chance. I bet it goes down to 6 or 7.
