Just an idea I had after the finals concluded last night. If you're unfamiliar with the Top 20 series I do occasionally for wrestling on this board here is how it works: You send me a list of your choices for the Top 10 current players in the NBA in order 1-10. Your #1 choice will receive 10 points, #2 will receive 9, and so on and so forth. After the voting is closed the totals will be added and we'll have the list for F.A.N's Top 25 current players in the NBA. Two things to make clear before you vote: 1) This is CURRENT players. Not 2005, not 2009, right now. As in if the season were tipping off next Monday, who are the 10 best players in the league. 2) The criteria for your choices is totally up to you. Box score stat lines, intangibles, leadership, rings, regular season vs post season, whatever you want to use to make your list. It's how you view the word best that will determine how your list is put together. I'm not sure how long I want to leave voting open for yet. I'll see how frequently I'm getting submissions and decide after the fact. So get going and send those lists to me in PMs. Have fun!

Well this won't have a knee-jerk reaction on a certain royal member of the NBA. I'll hit you up with my list later MGH
Edit: List Sent, looked at it as if I had to start a team tomorrow who would be the top ten guys I wanted on that team. I expect a large gap between the top 10 and the rest though.

sent mine, hard to create an exact order.
(hints: I have two pairs of teamates. I was fair to public enemy number 1)

Four quick lists in ad 15 players nominated. Not bad so far.

I'll just put a couple of hints out there for mine.
1. I did have a little homer bias though I didn't dominate the list with it and I think their positions on the list is fair. One of the two might not be on my list if he didn't play for my team, but the other definitely would.
2, I looked more at regular season than postseason performance. Save for one very specific player.

9 of my 10 guys were on a playoff team this season, and my #10 has been quietly great for two seasons and finally got his recognition this April and May.

I wanted to fit Monta Ellis in there, but it woulda been so guard heavy. Ugh. Difficult thing to do to choose 10.

We now have a full slate of 25 guys nominated. The top three are neck and neck with one another.

Alright, now the lists have begun to significantly slow down coming in. I'll leave this open until Sunday at midnight, then the list can go up Monday.
