Al Harrington
While Harrington may not be in the Knicks future plans, he’s certainly giving other teams something to talk about. His size and athleticism allows him to wreak havoc in the post; which complements his outside shot.

Chris Duhon
Mike D’Antoni doesn’t get enough credit for what he did in Phoenix. Now that he’s on a bigger stage in New York, his work with Chris Duhon is certainly turning a lot more heads. Duhon is having a career year and it’s no secret that D’Antoni’s offense holds the key to most of it.

Yi Jianlian
He may not be the next Yao Ming, but Yi Jianlian certainly belongs in this league. With his outside shooting touch he creates match up problems for bigger defenders. Until he learns to play within the paint, however, Yi won’t be much more than an average, off the bench, role player.

Nate Robinson
Nate’s having a great year - blossoming into a role player, winning his second slam-dunk title and actually looking like he’s having fun out there on the court. If he can keep his emotions in check, not to mention his jabbering to a minimum, Robinson could be the next coming of Steve Francis. Take that how you will - but you can’t deny Robinson has the talent to exceed expectations.

David Lee
David Lee has asserted himself as a nightly double-double this season and doesn’t plan on stopping there. While he is among the league leaders in double-double’s, Lee still has a bit of tuning to do on the offensive end. If he could up his free-throw percentage and develop some semblance of an outside shot; he would be almost unstoppable.

Brook Lopez
Brook Lopez isn’t a household name - but you can’t disagree with the potential he possesses. His aggressive post-style of play and his above average free-throw shooting percentage should make him a tough cover for most big men around the association. Lopez is still raw around the edges; but with some time, could be an important piece on a contending team.

Ray Allen
Ray Allen has one of the sweetest strokes in the game - and he’s now putting on a shooting display in Bean Town. Once considered a franchise player, Allen has given that title up and has dawned a new one: outside assassin.

Paul Pierce
The captain of the Celtics is back at it again. Pierce may not be putting up the career numbers he once was - but he’s above that. He wants to win. Piece elevated his game last year taking the reigns of the Celtics solidifying himself as one of the greatest C’s of all time.

Kevin Garnett
Kevin Garnett finally has a ring. It took him 12 mediocre seasons in Minnesota to get it, but you can no longer associate losing with KG. His defensive intensity and unique offensive skill set make him one of the best players of all time. Can he lead the Celts to another championship or is he one and done?

Vince Carter
The NBA knows who Vince Carter is. He’s a slam dunk champion, a deadly shooter and a former MVP candidate. What happened? He wasn’t voted into the all-star game this season even though the Nets are making headway in the East. An all-star game without Vince? Seems strange doesn’t it?
