It was in one of the threads from the summer. I will try and remember. Zach Randolph. Faried. Griffith. Ibaka. Bosh. Milsap. Aldridge. Duncan. Davis. Gortat. Lee. Love. Thaddeus Young. Favors. David West. Nowitzki. That's about sixteen for now

Yeah that's 16.

Gortat is a textbook center. He's off the list.

Favors and Thad Young arent close. They're out too.

Lee's offense isn't as good as it used to be and his defense is atrocious. He's out.

Fairied is your energy guy, except he can't play a lick of defense and Taj is one of the best in the world defensively. Faried is out too.

So you have 11 guys, and Dirk, Duncan, and Randolph are near the end and Taj is in his prime.

so that leaves 8 guys I could see making a case for having over Taj for the next 2-3 years.

Consider this the dissenting opinion you said you would not get.

Just so you didn't think I was ducking your dissent I was trying to give you an out. Fareed is better than Taj. The fact that he was one of the better players on the Fiba team while Taj could not even get a tryout kills you there. And please don't find a guy whose really good that also didn't get a tryout to support your argument. that's a message board trick and it's weak. If Gortat your Center then Nene is your four no way he is better than Nene. The aforementioned Josh Smith is a better player than Taj. Gibson. The only person that you discounted that I may agree with is Favors not a big fan but I think he is better than Taj. I also want to reiterate that you used the Rev. Watkins like Taj doesn't have to get better the other guys simply have to get worst in order to knock off three guys. Also if there are only 8 guys better at the three which u suggest then Taj. should be in consideration for an all star spot come Feb. What are the chances that happens? And you say that I have bad sports thoughts.

Bad is an understatement when it comes to your basketball thoughts. Your stubbornness is impressive though.

At the sake of overkill or obsession as you call it even this is Bernstein and Boers like. Whenever someone makes a valid or legitimate point they holler bad as a way of not addressing the point. It's one of their oldest tricks and it works because they have the bully pulpit. I have been an outlier in this battle. This even you would have to concede.

I will admit that you address some of them. I was laying in the bushes for the NBA season to start so I could address some of this stuff. Hot stove arguments really don't get it done. The Bears are done so the Bulls should take center stage.

Yeah you do. I think you might have missed on Stephenson Taj and Pau though. That's what the season is for. It will sort itself out. I really got some crazy rose theories on why he refuses to play he is hurt. Its kind of out there but I will save it for a later date.

Yes, yes you do. Sometimes you respond with official documents.
