Who is the best point guard in the NBA today?

[LeBronMonsterDunk]

Yea he does get injured a lot I'll give you that. I suppose we put Norris cole on the list since he's such a winner!

Great players improve their teams, even bad teams.


LeBron was drafted to a terrible Cavaliers team and added large amounts of wins each of his first 3 years (+18, +7, +5) and turned them into a 50 win team in his 3rd year.

Irving was drafted to a terrible Cavaliers team and has done nothing (+2, +3, and likely not much better this year).

Every time I see 'Kyrie Irving' mentioned anywhere near a list of BEST anything it makes me quite furious.


The dude has done NOTHING, literally NOTHING that suggests he gets the hype he does.

What games occurring outside your imagination are you watching? ANY?

Rose when he's healthy. His athletic ability blows the competition away.

He isn't even as athletic as Westbrick and is much more fragile.

Imagine if Rose had a brain. I mean, all these months away from the game, watching the Bulls win without him, and he still thinks his silly little off-balanced drives and chucking is the way to go. I can see why he cheated on his SATs. Or, I guess doing that takes stupidity and poor morals.

You're comparing Kyrie Irving to one of the greatest basketball players to ever walk the earth. That's where your logic failed. Besides I remember Kevin Durants first 3 seasons were terrible and then once they built the team up they took that next step.

Kyrie Irving is a flat out baller, if you can't see that then you need to get your eyes checked.

Having said that the best is probably CP3.

Rose can get to the rim better than any pg in the league.

The team that drafted Irving was WORSE than the one that drafted LeBron.

And KD's 1st 3 season's his team had a starting C who's legs were shot and who's back-ups were lucky tobe in the league at all.

Rose can get to the rim better than any pg in the league.

Derrick Rose Average # of Attempts at the rim per game for his career - 5.975 @ 57.775%

Russell Westbrook Average # of Attempts at the rim per game for his career - 6.14 @ 56.66%


From this we can see that Westbrick as the #2 option gets more attempts at the rim than Rosie, the alleged #1 option.


You were saying?
