Top 10 Small Forwards
Guess what? It’s Saturday morning and I am at the office. You’d probably wonder, if I am at the office on a Saturday morning then I’d probably be busy working right? Then why am I here writing this blog? Well, it makes me wonder too.
Anyway, here are my Top 10 Small Forwards in the NBA:
10. Robert Horry: 3 seconds left in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, who’s hands do you want the ball to be in? Jordan or Horry? (if you thought about it for more than 2 seconds, then Horry’s place in this list is justified)
9. Carmelo Anthony: Of the Big 3 from the 2003 Draft (Lebron, D-Wade), Melo has been the least explosive. Not to say the dude hasn’t got skillz, he’s just up against tough competition.
8. Glen Rice: 3-point shooutout champ, All-Star MVP…Not much, but good enough to make my list.
7. Shawn Marion: Poor-man’s Scottie Pippen, but with the potential to become better than the man himself.
6. Peja Stojakovic: The most ugly (literally too) jumpshot in the league.
5. Ron Artest: Coz he’s G-A-N-G-S-T-A.
4. Paul Pierce: I decided to put him in the Small Forwards list instead of the Shooting Guards list simply because he ranks much higher here.
3. Grant Hill: The first half of his career he was the most complete player the NBA had ever seen.
2. LeBron James: No no he’s not #1. Not yet, at least.
1. Scottie Pippen: He’s #1 here because he would have been in the Top 10 for at least 3 other positions.
