Nurkic is better than whiteside. Whiteside is just the product of playing on bad team and being the best player

Fixed. As a Pistons fan, what a disappointment he has been. Hopefully he turns it around, but I feel like if he doesn't improve this year, he never will. Honestly #53 is generous. Last year's #20 was a joke.

Rose and wade lo those 2 can be 99 and 100l. But parker and randle sould be on the list at least on the bottom 3rd. Rondo as well.

Here's what Sports Illustrated says about Derrick Rose. I'd agree with them (and this list). No way he's a top 100 player.

In New York last season, the former No. 1 pick did show flashes of the off-the-dribble burst and finishing that once made him a three-time All-Star. More importantly, though, the 28-year-old-old Rose lagged as a facilitator and leader, missed 15+ games for the sixth straight season, completely abandoned his three-point shot, and proved wholly incapable of handling his defensive responsibilities. As a result, he merely put up empty box-score numbers for a hopeless loser, ranking outside the top 300 in Real Plus-Minus and outside the top 200 in WARP. It’s no surprise that Rose was forced to settle for a minimum contract with Cleveland.

They did it before the season. I trust Embiid will be top 10-15 next year.

Right, because everyone knows Jae Crowder, Khris Middleton, and Paul Millsap are better than DeMar DeRozan...and who WOULDN'T take Mike Conley over Kyrie Irving? I truly believe that ESPN released this bogus list just to get some media attention. They certainly could use the help.

I definitely don't agree with the list, but that's ESPN for you.

Also can't believe I missed Durant. I was sitting there thinking "who's better than Curry, Thompson and Green?" and kept drawing blanks.
