    Michael Redd, lol. I'd put all the 2nd and 3rd team guards ahead of him, plus a few others besides.

    I like how he moved Ben Wallace from center to forward and McGrady from guard to forward. What happened to "positions they play regularly"? Terrible list.

    T-Mac is easily the most overrated player in the league, while Redd might be the most underrated.

    T-Mac's lack of talent in Orl isn't that much worse than Redd's in Mil. Yet Redd's team is way above T-Mac's in the standings.

    I love how T-Mac is immune of criticism. Yet, Kobe gets dogged by the "haters" ASAP.

    I find something which is very laughable, David Moore of Dallas Morning News nominate Yao to All-NBA Third Team as a FORWARD.

    THIRD TEAM
    FORWARDS
    Yao Ming, Houston: 17.5 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 1.91 bpg

    Ron Artest, Indiana: 3rd in league with 2.1 steals; 18.4 ppg

    CENTER
    Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas: NBA's 9th-leading scorer (22.2 ppg)

    GUARDS
    Paul Pierce, Boston: 23.0 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 5.1 apg
    Baron Davis, New Orleans: 2.4 steals per game leads league
