You listed 11 players so I had to leave the worst one out.

I dont think its fair to rank wall..he could be 1 or 9 (noway hes worse than kwame)

1. LeBron James
2. Dwight Howard
3. Derrick Rose
4. Yao Ming
5. Blake Griffin
6. Andrew Bogut
7. Kenyon Martin
8. John Wall
9. Andrea Bargnani

@ Raza: Andrea Bargnani ahead of Blake Griffin? Haha, don't get me started.

1. Lebron James
2. Dwight Howard
3. Derrick Rose
4. Yao Ming
5. Andrew Bogut
6. Blake Griffin
7. Andrea Bargnani
8. John Wall
9. Greg Oden
10. Kenyon Martin

I put Griffin and Wall (especially Griffin) so low because they've played about a quarter of one season...how can i compare them to these players when they've only played 20 games?

thats exactly what i was thinking too. griffin at 5 people? really?

and lmao@raza leaving the worst one out.

LeBron James
Dwight Howard
Derrick Rose
Yao Ming
Andrew Bogut
Kenyon Martin
Blake Griffin
John Wall
Andrea Bargnani
Greg Oden
Kwame Brown

I guess...

can griffin and wall even be put above bargnani yet? i really dont like bargs at all.. but he's lethal on O, and he's been like that for two or three years.

Simply because Blake is better than Bargs.

REALLY.

...

Yeah, idk why I ranked them there. I guess just based on talent...? W/e, put them right above Kwame and Greg.

Why not just the best draft pick players of the past 10 years?

Some of the #1 picks are butt.

Some are but that's it...

I'll rank my top picks as

1. Lebron James
2. Dwight Howard
3. Derrick Rose
4. Yao Ming
5. Andrew Bogut
6. Blake Griffin
7. John Wall
8. Kenyon Martin
9. Greg Oden
10. Kwame Brown

I'll need to see more of Wall and Griffin to rank them higher it's still their rookie year

Greg Oden is too injury prone for me to rank any higher has played just 82 career games

As for Kenyon Martin I really don't consider him that much of a bust as a matter of fact I don't consider him a bust at all. He was an all-star and intrical part of the Nets run in the early 2000s that saw 2 Eastern Conference titles and 2 NBA Finals appearances. He has been a bust for Denver after getting a max deal but for the Nets he was succesful and apart of their success. They haven't been the same type of quality team since KMart's departure

Great thoughts Konj

I agree that Oden is too much injury prone to get ranked higher.It's been a nice career for K-Mart
