The Most Surprising Players Of The 2006-2007 Season

The thing I dont like about this article is that guys like Carmelo Anthony, Joe Johnson, Z-Bo, Carlos Boozer (when healthy) have been putting up big numbers for the past few seasons, so why are they just now getting recognition as "break out players" 
Steve Nash has to be the greatest "system player" of recent memory. Any pre 1990 NBA fans remember a guy winning 2 MVPs knowing he wouldnt put up half the numbers in another offense?
Deron Williams is on his way to the top. As a matter of fact, Williams and Boozer are carrying the Jazz making "franchise player" Andrei Kirelenko take a back seat.
The 2005 draft PG trio of Williams, Paul, and Jack are going to get a few all star bids under their belt before their careers are over.
Seen Beidrins and not impressed with him. Garbage player than benefits from Don Nelson's O.
I am impressed with Monta Ellis's ability to score and how quickly he grasped the pro game coming out of highschool (although he has a long way to go).
Kevin Martin has improved his offensive game a lot and now that he has the opportunity to get minutes, he is certainly making the most of it... Despite that unorthodox J he has

The reason people are finally noticing Melo this year (other than the fight) is he is leading the league in scoring. The problem for him is that he was unfortunate enough to come out in the same draft class as LeBron who was already the chosen one. It took winning a ring for Dwayne Wade to get out of his shadow.
The closest thing I could think of to a great system player is Stockton. He wouldn't survive on another team.
..and yeah, Kevin Martin's J is type ugly..lol
