Articles: Best trio's in the NBA, and best players.

#1
Always fun looking at articles that have a few Kings players ranked :).

First article is best trio's

Second, Best players in the NBA, I don't really agree with the end, but its fun seeing where everyone else is ranked anyways.

Look at the spoiler for the exact ranking, I overall find it more enjoyable going through every player.

It's been puzzling to me why Stephen Curry is getting more love this pre-season than Tyreke. Even if you look at the fantasy drafts thus far, Curry is ranked as a first round pick while Tyreke usually goes late second-early third round. What gives?

Team USA ?

The style in which Golden State plays also makes it more likely Curry will thrive, thus the fantasy impact.

Steph Curry is a poor man's John Salmons... the infatuation will fade.

At this point Curry is definitely the more valuable fantasy player. Just because he fills out the 3pt category and also has such a good FT%. Good thing for us Tyreke is the better real world player.

This list is complete bogus, I didn't know Chris Bosh is better than Kevin Durant? I didn't know D Wade is better than LBJ? What a waste of a read. As for that trio list, pretty lame as well.

Oh come on -- when you read those its just so..unprofessional. It bothers me. Its obvious which guys the guy (probably a kid) has watched, and which he really hasn't and is just trying to fake by reading stat sheets. If you don't know, you don't know, but don't go trotting out mega articles trying to rank guys who's game you don't understand and expose your lack of knowledge to everyone.

We also get this:

Jason Kidd is arguably the greatest point guard in NBA history

just...bah!

P.S. followed by this: "Defensively Kidd remains one of the better defenders at his position" -- note to kid: get league pass! Watch the games! Get back to me!

I don't know, we could give him the benefit of the doubt: perhaps he actually said "Jason Kidd is arguably the greatest point guard in the history of Dallas Mavericks," and the editors made him change it?

But... it's Bleacher Report. It's the place where people go to see pics of scantily clad hotties, and laugh at the occasional sports article by someone who doesn't know "to" from "too."

No way man, Curry is legit. Say what you want about the system that Nellie runs in GS, it doesnt take away from the fact that his shooting and vision/playmaking are elite. With a better jumper Evans is by far the better player, but right now I think its a lot closer than many of us here at Kingsfans would like to admit. (I still take Reke 10 times out of 10 based on his size and higher potential).

As for that list....Made me lolz. Lakers big 3 is not Kobe/Pau/Artest. It is Kobe/Pau/Bynum. Bynum is just always busted up. And I'd rank em above Miami still. Bosh = overrated. And I dont think we have a big 3 yet. When we do I imagine it would be Reke/Cuz/Greene or Omri.. I'm hoping we trade Landry (I like the guy, he's just gonna want to get paid more than he's worth). But thats a few seasons away.

Fantasy teams are about simple numbers, mostly offensive. HE PLAYS FOR NELLIE. His numbers might be higher than Tyreke's. No one in their right mind would put them in the same class of player, though.

Curry is more marketable right now, and he's on Team USA. He also is in a huge Bay Area media market. It's almost like a baby NY.

A Bleacher Report "article" is equivalent to any random forum post.
Not going to argue with that. They are usually nice and long, and have lots of people complaining about them.

I also saw the Michael Beasley ranking, and thought it was way out there, but still I couldn't really argue with most of the mid level rankings. At the end I didn't agree with just about any of them.
