You guys are dumb. Here's how it goes. Current BEST 5 1. DJ MBenga 2. Josh Powell 3. Sasha Vujacic 4. Derek Fisher 5. Kobe Bryant Retired BEST 5 1. Rick Fox 2. Magic Johnson 3. Brian Shaw 4. Brian Grant 5. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar All-Time BEST 5 1. Mark Madsen 2. DJ MBenga 3. Kwame Brown 4. Smush Parker 5. Aaron McKie

1. Chris Paul 2. Deron Williams 3. Chauncey Billups 4. Tony Parker 5. Devin Harris 6. Steve Nash 7. Derrick Rose 8. Rajon Rondo 9. Jose Calderon I didn't include Gilbert Arenas because he was injured last season and doesn't play anything like a point guard.

Anthony Carter is a good defender and passer. He is unselfish, unlike Stephon Marbury, so he would be able to run the 2nd unit better than Marbury. With players like Rasheed Wallace, Eddie House, and Marquis Daniels coming off the bench, the Celtics need a distributer off the bench also. All he would cost is the veteran minimum.

I think the Lakers should consider trying to get Wally Szczerbiak for the veteran minimum. He would be cheap, and he is much better than Sasha Vujacic. He is a really good shooter, and can also post up. He could create more matchup problems, because teams used to put smaller players on Vladimir Radmanovic because he couldn't post up, but with Wally we wouldn't have that problem. He would be a better backup to Kobe than Sasha.
