I have Westbrooke in the SG's as thats what I think he is. Me being me. Others take the view he is a PG and thats OK but to me he plays more of the SG role.
So my top tier of SG's is made up of :
Harden ... Westy... Thompson..Butler...and DD.
With DD being at the lower end of the tier.
The Next Tier ..
Beal.. McCollum.. Reddick... Bradley .. Middleton... maybe .. maybe the ghost of Dwayne Wade subbed in for Reddick...
EDIT... I swore I would never get into the DD valuation religious wars and threads so I am stopping here.

Demographic Shift wrote: View PostThe tiering view is as broad as you want to make it..If you add to many defined parameters you don't get a tier you get a ranking system.Harden and Westbrook are in the top part of the tier for high usage high scoring shooting guards. Demar is thought of league wide as a good high usage high scoring SG and would fit in that tier. Most if not all think he wouldn't be viewed in the highest quadrant of the tier.
Hope you don't want to take a run at telling me how and what my opinions need to conform to. It's just a sports related discussion.
Since I used the tier as my example I am OK with it and don't think I am abusing my own thoughts.
If your not and prefer a numerical ranking crunched out of a relational db that's ok too...
I think DD is about 4 or 5. Be interested in where you think he ranks ..gut feel or statistically
Like even with PGs there are a lot of different ways you could do it. You could just go god-mode (2016-17) then elite PGs (CP3, Westbrook, Lowry, Lillard, Kyrie) or you could add in something to separate CP3 and RW from the other 3 and group them with Curry. Just depends on how you look at it.

DanH wrote: View PostIt's not really about a set number of guys in a tier, it's about where there is a significant difference in talent. Seriously, look at this list of names: Harden, Westbrook, Thompson, Butler, DeRozan. Is that really a group of similar players?
I could see the argument that DeRozan is on a similar tier to Thompson and Butler. Westbrook and Harden are on a different planet.
Per Hollinger's advanced stats on ESPN's site:
Player USG ASTr REBr VA PER
Westbrook 41.8 23.1 16.9 44.7 37.07
DeRozan 39.9 4.1 7.9 23.0 31.64
Harden 37.9 25.5 16.7 27.2 26.79
ASTr: Assist Ratio [the percentage of a player's possessions that ends in an assist.]
REBr: Rebounding Ratio [the percentage of missed shots that a player rebounds.]
VA: Value Added [the estimated number of points a player adds to a team’s season total above what a 'replacement player' (for instance, the 12th man on the roster) would produce.Last edited by Sinbad; Mon Oct 31, 2016, 07:22 PM.
