          @NBAonESPN Chris Paul is fantastic and a thief on D, but he's not a great defender. I've seen him get litup by some subpar pgs.Tue Oct 18 16:22:53 via webWesley Brown

          How did we rank the players?

          We asked 91 experts to rate each player on a 0-to-10 scale, in terms of "the current quality of each player."

          Here is the full list of voters from ESPN.com, the TrueHoop Network, TrueHoop TV, Daily Dime Live, ESPN TV, ESPN Radio, ESPN Deportes, espnW, ESPN The Magazine, ESPN Insider, ESPN Fantasy, ESPN Games, ESPN Dallas, ESPN Los Angeles, ESPN Chicago, ESPN New York, ESPN Stats & Information, ESPN Topics and ESPN Analytics.

          * Score: Tiebreakers are first based on percentage points; scores have been rounded off. The second tiebreaker is based on John Hollinger's estimated wins added for the 2010-11 NBA season (rookies were given an EWA of zero).
