    I have an honest question....

    Where do ya'll put Nash in your list of PGs? He is still out here playing at the same level he has his whole career.
  • wildcats20
    Iman Shumpert is on fire
  • Skyhook79
    Shumpert with a 3 not over yet. Melo 3-19, 1-4 from the line. smh

    Quick 10:

    Rose
    CP3
    Westbrook
    DWill
    Rondo
    Lawson
    Irving
    Nash
    Parker
    Lowry

    So still in the top 8 easy. 6-10 is pretty fluid

    He is def still top 10 because of his ability to make people better still and the fact that he shoots a high percentage from the field and takes good shots. He's never been a good defender. He's probably in that second tier behind Paul, D Will, Rose, Westbrook and Rondo. Throw him in their with guys like Wall, Kyrie, Parker. Somewhere 6-8 I would say

    Melo hits a huge 3 there to keep hope alive
  • wildcats20
    Shit lol
  • wildcats20
    Well that was good execution.

    Monta Ellis has to be on any list.

    PG? no way no how, he's a two guard

    I agree if you want to call him a PG. I consider him more of a SG when Curry is healthy.

    In terms of playing right this instance he's right behind

    Rose
    CP3
    DWill
    Westbrook
    Rondo

    That's all I have definitely above him. Haven't seen enough of Lowry play this season (only once this season, not enough to really judge outside of stats)
    After that its debatable to me. Really depends on what you want your PG to do. I know everyone is on the Rubio train but he doesn't have the shot that Nash does, and he might play less defense.

    Its amazing to me how just a few seasons ago say 2004 era there was a complete lack of elite/great of PGs in the league IMO. That position has really improved over the past 6 seasons or so.

    Back to the "Melo isnt top 15 in the league even though he does exactly what Kevin Durant(in everyones top 5) does" I do remember the pages of that argument, it was a long one. One I dont care to have again btw

    And Andre Miller had a flashback tonight, I like it. Hes solid off the bench for us, either him or Lawson seem to have a good game running the point on any given night.
  • Commander of Awesome
    Seeing any after effects from his "I want to start regardless where it is" attitude in Denver?
  • Commander of Awesome
    LMAO embarrassing steal by Joe Johnson. He stole it from behind a blazers player (didn't see the number) and ally ooped it to Teague for a sure fire SC top 10 play.

    Who, Andre Miller?
  • Hb31187
    He was pretty critical of Lawson and pretty much blew off questions about resigning next year. You can tell he wants to start and still thinks he has it(on some nights he sure does). But hes veteran enough I think to just shuttup and play ball the rest of the year.....I hope
  • Commander of Awesome
    Yes.

  • Hb31187
    Yeah, im hopin he just sucks it up and plays like he should. If not, fuck it...I have no problem with Rudy running as back up PG
  • Commander of Awesome
    Never mind, the article title is misleading. What he said is not nearly as severe.
  • Hb31187
    Yeah, I mean hes not happy about playin back up. But this article is def just stirring the pot by the writer lol

    What? From all reports Rubio has been, at worst, a solid defender this year. He won the DPOY in the ACB league a few years back too.

    lol Hubie. Shut up.

    Blake Girffin doesn't get more than .5 blocks a game because he doesn't play any defense. Has nothing to do with him being a freak athlete.
