Top 10 Shooting Guards of all time according to ESPN

[Mebert]

I don't care what he played, Allen Iverson WAS a PG.

I am trying this at work today. "I don't care what my job title says, I AM a Vice President!"

I will let you know how it goes.

Their PG list pissed me off yesterday, I can't take them seriously after that.

They put Curry ahead of Isiah Thomas....lol

How quickly they forget.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

They got #1 and #2 right but...man...its hard to debate the rest because PG play makes every team different.

Curry could end up being #3 by the time he retires. He could also fizzle pretty quickly and then what? Curry is on the list too soon. I think Curry and Thomas are the next 2 guys in terms of prime but Stockton's career and what Stockton's career could've been in THIS era of PG play is something thats hard to discount.

This^

Curry is fantastic.

But, his resume can't be graded on such a small sample size.

No pg that is currently playing in the NBA should be listed above Isiah Thomas.

I've always thought of AI as a PG, but good list overall.

Isiah Thomas seems to be more and more underrated as we get farther from his career. He flat out dominated and was tough as hell. I love watching Curry. He's playing some special basketball right now. But the longevity isn't there yet to put him so high on this list.

I feel the same way about Stockton, every time he is high up on one of these lists you are for sure to hear from people that they would rather have. I liked the point guard list minus Curry I felt everything else was close. Remove Curry from 4 and Isiah is right where he should be.

[bksballer89]

That looks pretty solid to me. I would bump Dr. J up to #4 if able to include his ABA days. I'd put Worthy over Pierce as well.

Yup. He needs to do this for several more years to get that high.

 

[Bolts]

Where the hell is Stauskas?

 

[Clayton]

Pierce is hard to place but Id agree that Id rather have Worthy. Pierce is somewhat underrated but not a guy that could take a team somewhere by himself which is what a lot of these other players could do.

Worthy vs Pierce is a close one. If you look at their career numbers side by side they are virtually identical. Pierce is the better 3 shooter, but I think that is a generation thing. I think you could put either ahead is the other and you are right

SG list is legit. Pretty sure AI was a point guard though.

Didn't he play SG a lot in Philly? I know when Eric Snow was there he did start at SG.

 

[wildturkey]

ESPN is genius for doing this immediately after CFB is over. They just manufactured their own story to fill gobs of airtime

 

[MiamiVice]

1. MJ
2. Kobe
3. West
4. D-Wade
5. Drexler
6. AI
7. George Garvin
8. Ray Allen
9. Reggie Miller
10. Earl Monroe

Agree or nah?

Yeah... AI was not a SG.

 

[trojanfan12]

I don't know, I always thought he was a PG. But then, when he was with Philly he did pretty much everything. He was about all they had.

I thought he was a pg too.

I guess this is like the Duncan debate.

I have him as the best PF of All-time.

Others have him as a top 10 Center.
