NBA Player Efficiency Rankings

Time for me to take that mid-season look at player efficiency to see which players are on the rise, which are underrated, etc.  This year, 6 of the top 20 are point guards, Lebron has started to age just a bit, and your boy Westbrook has taken a big leap up the rankings, ha.  Here are the top 20 if they are playing over 25 min per game:

Anthony Davis - 31.9
Kevin Durant - 28.7
James Harden - 28.0
Russell Westbrook - 27.3
Steph Curry - 27.0
Lebron - 26.2
Demarcus Cousins - 25.8
Chris Paul - 24.9
Blake Griffin - 22.9
Klay Thompson - 22.8
Marc Gasol - 22.7
Jeff Teague - 22.5
Dwayne Wade - 22.5
LaMarcus Aldridge - 22.5
Derrick Favors - 22.4
Pau Gasol - 22.3
Nikola Vucevic - 22.2
Tim Duncan - 22.1
Damian Lillard - 22.1
Kyle Lowry - 22.0

That's a huge number for Davis and a wide lead.  Too bad the "Unibrow" doesn't play for a good team.  Notice, no Dirk, no Kobe, no Dwight Howard.  Dynamic duos: Curry/Thompson, Paul/Griffin, Durant/Westbrook, Aldridge/Lillard.  Kudos to whoever was the youth coach of Marc and Pau Gasol!
