2019-2020: Most points scored in a loss
BRADLEY BEAL VS KHRIS MIDDLETON – 1/28/20
First off I just want to say I appreciate you for taking time for writing me. Well I do agree with Damian being one of the better athletes in the league I believe he has a loss a lot of his explosiveness over this past season/last playoff run. Due to his minor lower body injuries. But I personally enjoy Damian Lillard. He is one of the best deep shooters in the league.

I agree with the comment about Damian over Westbrook as shown last year in the Playoffs. You rated him fairly although I would be interested in your criteria for athleticism. Hasn’t Dame shown that he is one of the top athletes in the League rather than being rated below an A. Thanks for blogging.

No problem. I am looking to start a sports blog too, but mine is strictly about the Spurs so I probably won’t have a huge audience. I agree he doesn’t have stars, the broadcasters here talk about it a lot. I just think that for as skilled as he is, he should not disappear as much as he does. I know scoring is not everything, but he played 65 games this year. In 26 of them he didn’t crack 20 points, and in 8 of those he didn’t even reach 10 points. It is just hard for me to say he is top 5. Especially when Anthony Davis is out there wrecking havoc nightly.

I appreciate you checking out my top basketball players of 2019-2020. Jokic like many other superstars can disappear from games. But is overall impact on teams success is why i put him in the top 5. He has no other all star level players on his team.

I love your list but I am sorry, I live up here in Colorado and have seen some of Jokers games, and there is NO way he is top 5. He disappears way to much during games. I would for sure put him behind Anthony Davis, Russ, and Dame. Maybe like 9th or so. But the top 4 are spot on.

I would lower harden value to team. As much as a value he is also s hindrance to team success. I still give him an A but I say more like A- keep brook where he is at cuz I think at this stage he can lead team better based only on playing style. They both terrible leaders in my book but brook playing style proves otherwise
