Who are your favorite players that are currently active in the NBA by position? Dont necessarily have to be the best players, but who do you like the best at each spot? And why? They can be a hometown guy or someone you played against. Doesnt matter. 2 per position. And if they are a tweener, just put them in 1 spot and not for both.

PG- Rondo and Tony Parker- Pass 1st score 2nd mindset is rare in todays game and Rondo has that. Love the way Parker plays and has been doing it for years. IMO, highest basketball IQ in the NBA.

SG- Paul Pierce and Kobe- Love Pierces "old man style game". Not the best athlete on the court, but a straight up baller. Kobe has the best mentality of anyone to play the game since MJ. Love the Mamba attitude and how he says whatever he wants to say. Doesnt give a shite about the media anymore.

SF- KD and Paul George- George is an up and coming big time player. Can score, reb, knock down 3s, and plays great D. KD is the only guy that reminds me of Larry Bird. Will knock it down from anywhere on the court with a defender all over him. And, I think KD will join the 90/50/40 club this season.

PF- David Lee and Tim Duncan- Like Pierce, Duncan has "old man style game" and its rare for todays jumper dunkers in the NBA. Most technically gifted basketball players ive ever seen. Nothing better than watching Duncan go to work with the hook shot and the 12 footer off the glass. David Lee is a double double animal and 1 of the more underrated players in the NBA.Love how physical he is in the paint and has great touch around the rim.

C- Marc Gasol and Joakim Noah- Love a big man that can pass the rock and thats what Gasol does. Also has a Tim Duncan style of game where he can shoot it from 15 ft and has great post moves. I get why some people hate Noah, and when he was at UF I did. But, hes 1 of the few guys that gives everything he has in every game. Rare for todays game. Also a great defender, passer, and rebounder. IMO, hes been the best center this season.

Honorable mention: Kyrie, Curry, Harden, Batum, Josh Smith, Al Jefferson, Monroe, Nikola Vucevic, Anthony Davis,Kenneth the Manimal Faried, Tyson Chandler.

With all due respect, I despise your list: Paul Pierce and Kobe and Parker:

For me:

PG: Norris Cole and Jeremy Lin

SG: Gordon Hayward and James Harden

SF: Kevin Durant and Danny Granger

PF: Kevin Love and Dirk Nowitzki

C: I don't know who the hell is a Center anymore besides Dwight Howard.
