Re: Tony Mejia ranks the top 50 current NBA players

Gilbert is low, but I don't think he's crazy low. He's exciting as hell to watch, but he's still a chucker. His shooting percentages aren't that great. His only saving grace in that regard is his ability to get to the line and he's an excellent free throw shooter.

Don't forget that Gilbert is still only 25 years old, and hes shown constant improvement throughout his career. He has shot right around 43% for his career, which isn't bad considering that he takes around 7 3s per game(takes about 20 total shots).
I think that hes everything Iverson was in his prime but better( more efficient, less assists, more rebounds, less steals).
BTW, this is totally out of nowhere but Allen Iverson's steal-to-fouls stats are very impressive. For two years in a row he put up 2.8 and 2.7 steals with only 1.7 and 1.8 fouls.
HMmmmmmm...actually I think its a very close comparison....lets do a poll!
