Baron getting some love

Baron has cracked Kelly Dwyer's of Si.com's top 20 player rankings, coming in at number 20.

Baron Davis
The Warriors are still very much in playoff contention, though they will fade a bit with Jason Richardson out with a broken hand, and we're still uneasy about Davis' approach to the game. With Steve Francis and Stephon Marbury whiling away in New York, Baron is the last of the over-dribblers. And though his production has been sound (21.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 8.6 assists), you get the feeling he can shoot you in and out of games. Case in point: Davis has missed 26 of his last 32 three-pointers over six games, but with games against Seattle and Phoenix lined up, do you think this will give him pause before firing up another one?

I worry about the minutes Baron's getting, but love the effort he's giving. Great to see him getting his due.
