If you would have just put those names down i would have to argue with a few of your selections, But your comments about each player are spot on, so instead of debating your players i will just say nice job.
OK I can't let this go D-Will should be in Nashs spot but that's coming from a die hard Jazz fan so take it for what its worth.

Aren't centers meant for more rebounding and not scoring? Because if I am correct then Dwight Howard is a good center.
Oh and also he averages like 15 PPG game so i would say is a good scorer too.

A good center rebounds and provides low post scoring. Dwight Howard get 18.3 pts per game and 13 rebounds per game. I don't think that is an over paid role player. He is the most dominant big man in the game right now and plays good defense inside. Sure he can improve many parts to his game, but he is still a great center.

I think its hysterical how so many are so quick to try to tear down players and find their weaknesses. Can Dwight Howard score with the ease and ability of Tim Duncan, Shaq, or KG? I guess not, but can he do some things that any other human can't? yes.

As a Phoenix Suns fan i have listened to people trash Amare Stoudemire for years about how he can't play defense. Some gripe about it so much as to say the guy is barely average. Give me a break. Amare is the most physically gifted offensive big man in the game. I suppose if you could combine Amare's offensive game, and Howards defense game, you might then have that all around, great, dominant player.

But the guy who has that kind of talent is truly named Superman, not just nicknamed Superman.

This league is loaded with great players, few that are well rounded. Steve Nash is another example of a guy who is absolutely the best on one side of the ball, but gets trashed for his ability (or lack of) on the other side. Fact is, Nash takes a ton of charges, and the way the Suns play, more often than not he is not the guy matched up on the guard torching the Suns anyway. But anyone outside out of Phx looks at a box score, and sees an opposing PG score 27 against the Suns and assumes Nash got schooled.

Shaq and Duncan are great players, cant hit free throws.

This guy is too weak, this guy is too big, this guy is not as agile as this guy. All the while people want to annoint players who haven't even proven themselves yet as the next great player!

Why does it always have to come down to one guy, or 10 guys? Funny how in an effort to support "your" choice for who the best, or better player is, "you" are willing to trash great players to make your case. The NBA is loaded with the top 1% basketball players in the world. As Charles Barkely said, "nobody in the NBA sucks, nobody makes it to the NBA who can't play basketball".

If I werer starting a team today, Nash would probably be my 1st choice at PG...D Williams probably about 4th on my list...If I got "stuck" with D Wiliams...I would be plenty happy! I like Nash's game better, but no way would I trash a great player like Williams, Paul, Roy, Rose, etc to make my points about Nash.

True. You can't trash somebody for not playing defense, the only people that play defense in the NBA is like Ron Artest, Matt Barnes, used to be Bruce Bowen. lol. Nobody plays D.

Wow, now you trash the whole NBA. Lots of people play defense, I think you are thinking of the players who only play defense and not much offense. Matt Barnes isn't even a top 10 defender in the NBA.

College players play defense, its like when you get to the NBA its not required anymore. Looks like a bull fight out there, they play O'lay defense.

how many nba games have you watched 2, both Warrior games. You definitely didn't watch the celtics throughout the playoffs, or the Lakers, or the Spurs, or all the other teams. They all have good defenders on them.
