Francis and J-Rich are there for entertainment value... They are exciting players, just like Carter. You never know whats gonna happen next. And when it does, you can't wait for the next highlight reel moment.
Francis has had a couple of really off-seasons, but I bet he's gonna be better this year. Knicks were as bad as they were because Larry Brown couldn't work with the guys and I think Isaiah as a bad boy him self, will get through better to the likes of Marbury, Francis, Crawford etc. Knicks have the talent, they just haven't had any chemistry in recent years. If Isaiah can get the guys on the same page, there might be some surprises coming from NY this winter. But that's a big IF.
I don't think the list of the top ten shooting guards is anything too scientific or based on any real study of game footage, stats etc. but more of a feel for the guys by the writer or the whole bunch of guys at RealGM... Don't take it too personally that your favorite player wasn't on the list.
