#1 is easy for me its Derrick Rose the MVP of last year. He is a dynamic scorer, incredible passer and is exciting to watch. He also is explosive enough to take over games and is great to watch. This year he's averaging 21.8 PPG 7.7 APG 3.4 RPG and 0.8 SPG
#2 Is just as easy for me to choose and he is as close to number one as you could be. Chris Paul is the ultimate play maker and has put the LA Clippers in the limelight. This year he is averaging 19.2 PPG 8.6 APG 3.6 RPG and 2.3 SPG
#3 Is Russel Westbrook. He is a dynamic scorer who could possible be the leading scorer for point guards in the league if he didn't play with the best player in the league (Kevin Durant.) Russel has an endless upside and just signed a 60 million dollar contract. This year he is averaging 23 PPG 5.5 APP 4.8 RPG and 1.8 SPG
#4 Is Derron Williams. This is were there is lots of parody, but Derron Williams is a great talent stuck on a very bad team. He can shoot anywhere on the court, make plays and also do well in the paint. This year on a terrible team he is averaging 22,2 PPG 8.2 APP 3.5 RPG and 1 SPG
#5 Is Rajon Rondo. This may be a bias pick to close out my top five NBA point guards, but I don't believe he gets the credit he deserves. He is impossible to stop from reaching the paint and plays as if he had eyes in the back of his head. Sure he plays with great players, but he creates in a masterful way. This year he has been out several games but is averaging 14.8 PPG 9.5 APG 4.8 RPG and 1.6 SPG
Here is my top five point guards, I will continue with Shooting guards next week I would like to here some comments because I know this is very arguable! Hope you like..
I like the topic choice Nick,
ReplyDeleteWhere's JLin on the list? haha.
The rondo bias comment was a great point, I definitely think he's under rated but he's an unselfish player who will continue to rise up in the NBA.

Ha, thought I love the comment about JLIN he will probably will never make this list.. Love your comment tho Thanks Aaron!
ReplyDeleteThere have been a couple comments made about Rondo and his improved ability to shoot. I tend to disagree because if he were improved at all people would not let an NBA player have so much room to shoot. However, what I have noticed with Rondo is whenever the shot clock is running down or the quarter is about to end he has the amazing knack to make buzzer beaters. I have personally seen him make over 10 buzzer beaters and I wonder why he can't seem to shoot a better percentage when the clock actually has time on it. He is a very clutch player, which I love, but he cannot move up the list right now. The next post will be my top 5 SGS in the game and number one played yesterday against the Celtics. One of my least favorite players in the league, but he continues to be an unstoppable force in the NBA. Can anyone guess who it is?
