Best PG in the league

[KingSpeed]

I gotta go with Rondo.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Williams. He can play any style and is a very physically strong player.

Speaking oh which, what is up with Magic Johnson? He said, and I quote, Deron Williams is the best point guard in the league but Rondo is the best all around point guard in the league and it's not even close.

What the fuck does that mean?

 

[Luther]

DWill is just as good of a distributor as Rondo and he has a hell of a jumper. Rondo is much better on defense and a better rebounder. Therefore DWill is the best PG as far as leading a team and being able to shoulder a scoring load while Rondo is somewhat limited on offense but his all around game is better if you look at every aspect statistically....Thats the only way I can make sense of that comment.

It means Magic had aides.

 

[Blaze01]

Deron Williams, but man Rondo is really coming on....

 

[BGrantFan]

Rondo, since he plays defense. Williams is a sieve at the point, and it ends up hurting Utah.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

When healthy it's Chris Paul.

Right now it's Deron Williams

Rondo isn't far behind.

 

[B-Roy]

Chris Paul.

Although it's funny how many people are affected by the "what have you done for me lately" syndrome.

 

[Minstrel]

Chris Paul by a mile.

Between Williams and Rondo, I'm not sure. I'd probably pick Rondo due to his impact on both ends of the court.

 

[BGrantFan]

Chris Paul.

It is only alllowed to judge players on the last 6 games they played. This I have learned since the Phoenix series. Unless, of course, you're Andre Miller. Then, your terrible play is excused.

 

[THE HCP]

DWILL! Big and fast! Just like BeerBoy's sister!

 

[Rhal]

So hard to pick because each one of those brings something that is irreplaceable to their teams. I think Dwill is the best point guard at the moment because of his ability to take over games when he needs to. Rondo is playing so good on every aspect on the court that there is never a time you think "Man he is doing XXXX amazing if only he just wasn't getting blasted on XXXX". Nash is playing better then when he was in his prime but age is going to start having a huge impact soon. Chris Paul has the most talent of those four but he always seems to have something wrong with him.

 

[LameR]

Congrats on having another flavor of the week. What about Yi!?!?

 

[SpamKing]

Imagine any of those guys in a Blazer uni...

(BTW, I picked Chris Paul...)

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Dwill

 

[Ed O]

Chris Paul. By a lot.

The best point guard in the league is D-Will. CP3 is close behind, but he just isn't big enough to be on the same level. Rondo is coming on, but his jumper is inconsistent and he benefits from having 3 future HOF'ers around him.

 

[FeloniusThunk]

The only guy who really even came all that close to CP isn't even on the list: Jason Kidd. He turned into a 3pt shooter and was still good at everything else. I'd take Rondo, Deron, and Nash after that for the top 5.

 

[tlongII]

Jason Kidd sucks.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Wait, so 61% of the board doesn't think CP3 is the best PG in the league?

 

[Draco]

CP3.

If this question was asked last year he'd probably have 90% of the vote.

 

[B-Roy]

CP3.

If this question was asked last year he'd probably have 90% of the vote.

The guy was injured for most of the year and his team ended up missing the playoffs.

It seems that was enough to make half the entire board forget about him.

 

[huevonkiller]

Chris Paul by a mile.

This. Too dominant when healthy.

In 10 career games vs. Utah, Paul averages 13.8 points while shooting a pathetic 35 percent from the field. Deron, on the other hand, averaged 17.5 points while shooting a fantastic 54 percent from the field in 11 career games vs. New Orleans.

I don't see the relevance of that though. Since Chris has better numbers against other teams.

And Jarret Jack had better head-to-head games against Chris Paul in college. Draft Jarret Jack!

 

[THE HCP]

I think he is trying to compare their head to head matchups....... a very popular way to judge players against eachother.

where was that ability when his team was getting swept?

Actually, it's Pierce/Allen/KG who benefit from HIM. Rondo has arguably been the best player in the playoffs. He completely runs the show for a team that is one win away from the Finals.
