This is probably a tad bit premature but who do you think the best players have been so far in this first round?
 
I've moved some PFs to SF because the post players have been dominant so far.

First Team:
G. Dragic
Harden
Faried
Davis
P. Gasol

Second Team:
Rubio
Fernandez
Garcia
Blatche
Dieng

Third Team:
Prigioni
Bojan Bogdanovic
Saric
Scola
Ayon

Honorable Mention: Bourousis, Baynes (a lot of good centers in this tournament)

Too many good big men - hard to leave off Dieng, Haddadi and Blatche, but their teams did poorly, and they played a huge number of minutes, and Blatche was quite inefficient. And Moreira, Saric and Kaimakaglou were just slightly less productive.

After the first round, the efficiency leaders were:
Dieng 22.8 EFF/g, -14.2 +-/g
Blatche: 22.4, -2.6
Scola: 22.4, +4.0
P. Gasol: 22.2, +18.6
Faried: 21.6, +20.6
Garcia: 20.8, -2.3
Davis: 20.7, +19.6
Bourousis 20.4, +17.6
Haddadi 20.2, -8.6
Moreira 20.2, -0.8
Ayon 18.8, -2.8
M. Gasol 18.6, +24
Saric 17.6, +0.2
Barea 17, -13
G. Dragic 16.8, +4.8
Kaimakoglou 16.0, +4.8
Baynes 16.0 +8.5
Harden 15.8+21.2
Koponen 15.2, -8.6
Bojan B. 15.0, +5.2
Z. Dragic 15.0, +10.2
Valanciunus 15.0, -1.2
Ingles 14.0, +7.8
Bjelica 13.8, -2.6
Omic 13.8, +7.8
Rubio 13.6, +24.6
Tomic 13.6, +8.2
Preldzic 13.4, +2.2

I think the point he was making was that there have been many good performances by post players and not so many good performances by guards.

So what? If you want to post best 5 players then you are welcome, but do not add fake positions to their names.

And if you have positions then it means you post a list of one best player in each position.

Interestingly though by the end of the first round, some guards did step up and play well. Rubio, Barea, Calathes, even Barbosa. I think guards will play a bigger role in the knockout phase. :)

Certain teams better hope you're right about that if they want to advance.
