If you go to Ball Don't Lie, you would have seen Kelly Dwyer's 1-30 player position rankings.
He has finished the small forwards and Danny Granger came in at #6. Please remember, this means he expect Granger to be the 6th best small forward NEXT year as these are projections. What he said:
"Indiana's go-to guy slipped a bit in 2009-10, dropping his points per game average down nearly two ticks and shooting the worst percentage of his NBA career. The good end to that is that Danny still dropped over 24 a game, and that at age 27 upon entering October's training camp, he'll be just about ready to enter his prime. Now all he needs is some help. Lots of it."
The small forwards ahead of Granger? Iggy, Gerald Wallace, Carmelo, Durant, and Lebron.
What say you IC... is this a fair ranking? Too high? Too low?
Personally I say he is at worst 6th best, but could easily be as high as number 4 and I think should be above Iggy at number 5. But he is definitely in that 2nd tier... you got Lebron/Durant/Carmelo, and then you got Wallace/Iggy/Granger/Pierce. (well to be honest, I think Carmelo is in tier 1.5... not near lebron and durant but better than the next 4.)
