Who is the best point guard in the NBA today?

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Tony Parker pushes Chris Paul around and then steals his Halloween candy.

TP flat out owns CP3 when they play head to head.
From the moment Chris Paul joined the NBA he has been smacked around badly by Tony Parker.

Maybe Chris Paul has better all around skills, but he never shows them when he plays the Spurs.

Parker plays for a winner.
Paul always chokes in the playoffs.

Parker abuses Chris Paul on the court.

Reggie Miller got it right when he boldly said that Parker is the best point guard in the NBA.

I really do not think LBJ would want to handle that kind of stress on his body for a full season, nor should he want to.

You can say that again. He refuses to play like a man, even at SF, he's a flopper. No way could he survive the paint full-time.

Anyone that doesn't say CP3 is either an idiot or a homer...or both.

[NADAL2005RG]

Rose is #3? Based on which year? Not last year. Not this year. Impossible.

CP3 is the best PG in the NBA. No doubt about it.

Looking at the head-to-head numbers on Basketball Reference, the stats clearly favor CP3 (PPG, SPG, APG, RPG). The win/loss record favors Parker (18-9). Parker has been on the better team throughout his career. To say Parker flat out owns or abuses CP3 is a bit of a stretch.

It is like comparing apples to oranges:

During the 2012 regular season they played each other 3 games.

Parker 22 ppg 9.5 assists 6.3 assist/to ratio

Paul 22.3 ppg 8.3 assists 5.2 assist/to ratio

Then you have the 2013 regular season full stats:

They are 1 and 2 easy. It is mostly opinion who is better. Have to give the edge to Paul, but barely.

According to Charles Barkley it's tony Parker

David West
Tyson Chandler
Peja Stojakovich
Jamal Crawford
Blake Griffin
Chauncey Billups
Lamar Odom
Caron Butler

13 allstars, DPOY, 3 all NBA, and 2 6th men of the year..


They all agree that Chris Paul played with no talent.

No other player gets more hype with less success than the Teflon King.

And the kneejerk reaction is to say he played with scrubs.

But, the reality is he played with some exceptionally talented running mates....all of whom enjoyed better success without Chris Paul on their team.

Stephen Curry by the end of the year

 

[LeBronMonsterDunk]

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.

Watch him play and you won't sound so dumb...

 

[Bartman]

Anyone who doesn't put CP3 needs to have their head examined.

 

[LeBronMonsterDunk]

I've seen him play.

He's a loser.


All he does is lose, lose, and lose some more.


Oh and get injured, he's good at that too.

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!
