Who is the best Point Guard in the league as of now?

First topic message reminder :

?

Rose isn't the best PG yet.
But I don't think its a stretch to say that he is capable of achieving elite status in the near future.

Its a toss-up between D-Will and CP3.

You can make a case for either of them..but i'll go with CP3 cuz....well cuz I don't like Utah

hes not kidd..but he plays like kidd to me..his pg vision and passing ability cant be taught imo and thats what kidds knwon for..not his jumpshot and rondo has other stars on his team..put him in a tyreke evans type situation and i have no doubt hed be 22,11,9

9 rebounds for Rondo? Um...

He can be taught it very easily, but we're not talking about the future, we're talking about now, where Jason Kidd shoots in the 40s for both FG% and 3P%, in the 80s for FT%, puts up a decent amount of points, almost 10 assists, and 6 rebounds.

All as a 96 year old PG

Oh i know. im just annoyed of everybody being in love with westbrook and the thunder out of nowhere. so much so that they're getting overrated.


saying this shit about my 2nd favorite team, my favorite player ... god damn lol

Hey, don't diss my 2nd favorite team!

I guess I am a Thunder bandwagoner, but Westbrook was a star at UCLA and Durant was a star at Texas...how can I not root for them?

And Westbrook definitely is not the best PG in the NBA, but he has the potential to be (I think).

Wait a minute...Westbrook is my PG in the fantasy draft...what am I saying?

WESTBROOK IS THE BEST PG IN THE NBA GUYZ LULZ

I'm not really a big OKC fan..because they're gonna take the Northwest Division Title from the Nuggets soon

Me, Sk and Dwayne liked the thunder the season before last when they sucked

I never LIKED them..but I knew they would be good.

However, they did surprise me a bit with 50 wins this year

Me too! That was Westbrook's rookie year.

Healthy Blazers,have strong chances to overcome that

As far for the question,Williams or Rondo,it can go either way

I wont say who's the best..Just some facts.

Defense : Rondo is no doubt the best defensive PG. Steals, and Defensive ratings, shares show it and there's no doubt. Deron is nowhere near nor is Nash or Paul

Passing : He's better passer than Deron and Paul to me and as good passer as Nash.
While he got more assists this year cuz of Pierce's good 3pt season he lost many assists cuz of Allen's mediocre shooting season, and believe me he lost way more other than he got.*Note* Deron's team-mates shoot a higher percentage of the shots than what Rondo's team-mates.

Offense : In O, he lacks a shot but he can still score 14 with 11fgs ONLY, that's almost like KG's.
While Deron scores 3pts more with 3fgs MORE.And don't forget Deron is 1-2 option in his team while Rondo 2-3 and rarely 1.

These are the most important things for a PG imo.
If you count Rebounds this is a blow out.
Not to mention Rondo's ball handling (3topg) in comparison to Derons(3.3).

PLAYOFFS? No contest just don't ask..

So just cuz of a jump shot a player can't be considered the best at his position?

You Judge.

I still pick CP3.

Deron Williams. Big. Fast. Range. Leadership. Defense. Clutch shooter. Rebounder... I think if you're looking for the complete skill set in a point guard you can't go wrong with DWill.

I won't discount CP3, but I can't really include him to the list with playing a little over half a season.

Rondo is really solid defensively, but his lack of a jumper, 3 pt range and terrible FT% for a point guard makes him susceptible to being pulled out in late game situations or to not be use as the receiver of the inbounds pass and a target for getting fouled late in games.

I have a feeling that Rondo will be making his FT's next year..At least.

Honestly.... if he was a better FT shooter and had a little more range I'd probably put him over DWill...

It's really tight between the three Chris, Deron and Rajon all effect the game in various ways.

That's what puts him above every other PG to me (besides Nash of course but he still is better IMO)

Nick does it again

D-Will is fantastic,a beast who has complete skill set and can score,dish,defend,rebound,lead and make clutch plays.When he got to those games of 27 points/17 assists type of ones,he played at his best

When Rondo gets more consistent on shooting from mid range,three point and free throws,he will be there with Paul
