1
Top of the heap in the wake of The Decision; likely to stay a while
2
Will get love from some as the new No.1; it’s subjective at the least
3
Would take a truly epic drop-off in production to fall further in ranks
4
So consistently good and the set-up remains exactly the same
5
Less room on the down side than James; 3s/STLs/BLKs will be key
6
Tantalizing per-game numbers, but the bumps/bruises are a drag
7
Monta’s presence doesn’t impede, Lee’s presence should only help
8
Some serious mileage here, but it seems silly to expect a decline
9
The perfect big for the triangle; fantasy ranks and rings are evidence
10
A bit more competion for production, but clearly it’s a very good fit
11
You can argue upside from here, but can’t help but notice no Nash
12
Nothing but superlatives in 09-10… once you get past 62% FT, that is
13
Expanded 3PM and STL numbers are his keys to the next level
14
Statistically, a Yao Ming(notes) clone through their first two full seasons
15
His line will normalize as he comes down from a career-high 41 mpg
16
Premium numbers (AST, STL, 3PM) at a premium position
17
League’s STL leader will only see his role increase further in 10-11
18
Likely would produce similar stats anywhere, but situation not ideal
19
Mile-high storm clouds in the form of injuries and Melo’s discontent
20
Splitting the difference between H2H domination and roto liabilities
21
Moves to a great team setup, now he just needs to stay healthy
22
Nobody is happier that the Eddie Jordan era lasted a single season
23
Love the roto game but a true full season may be hard to come by
24
Goes from the man to third wheel; expect stats down, efficiency up
25
Further progression of skills will place him among elite C options
26
Quietly consistent roto rock won’t wow you but always produces
27
Great setup, but always a risk when it comes to health/motivation
28
He’s finally been able to showcase his unique skills over full seasons
29
It may seem crazy, but we’re looking at fewer minutes and no Amar’e
30
Happy to be home in NJ, where he looks like a great fit
