Deron Williams

Deron is great, but Paul is better.

I disagree, Deron is the best young point guard in the NBA but imo Nash is still the best until he retires.

Paul is super overrated, they have done nothing the past couple years and like I Am said, Collison has been just as good if not better.

This. Watch Nash play. He might be the best point guard i have ever seen play. He is amazing to watch lead a team. He is older but he still has it. Kidd is above those guys too. Dallas wouldn't be doing the things they are doing without Kidd.

Thats true, Im really surprised that both Kidd and Nash have played so well this year.

Imo the best pure point guard of all time is John Stockton. He is the all time NBA leader in assists and steals and he is so far ahead of number 2 in each stat its not even funny.

Of course many consider Magic the best point guard but imo he wasnt a pure point guard and he had some many advantages over Stockton like his size and strength.

Naw. CP3 doesnt turn the ball over nearly as much as Collison, dude's a turnover machine. It understanding right now, he's still a rookie, but I wouldnt put him near Paul. Paul has a much better shot, passes the ball better, etc. The Hornets need Paul to be successful. Collison is still balling, though.

You mention that Paul hasnt done anything with his team the past couple years, well look at who he's playing with, and look at who Deron is playing with. Paul's working with basically a bunch of scrubs; aside Thornton and Collison(he hasnt got to play with them much this year), and he's working with West but West is overrated. If Paul had the players Deron's working with, I feel Paul would be head and shoulders above the rest of the pack of young PG's. Right now, I have both CP and Deron about equal.

Paul is the most efficient PG the NBA has ever seen and puts up ridiculously guady numbers at the same time. The only PG even remotely close statistically is Magic. Plus the kid is already extremely clutch. As long as injuries or his team/owner doesn't get in his way, since people tend to judge much of a players worth on rings, he will likely go down as the best player under 6'4 to ever play the game.

The only thing Collison's play in Paul's absence proves is that Collinson is a very good player.

As for Nash, it is unbelievable how good he is at his age. A lot of people like to say that he didn't deserve his two MVP's and that he was a product of Pringles system. However that has been proven false since he went to NY and Nash is still doing his thing in. Steve is truly one of the all time great PG's. Hollinger has an article up now about how he ranks at the top of the league in shooting all time.

    • I also didnt think that Tepper was too involved. I think he liked to be engaged in the process but never did he seem to influence anything.  If Im an owner Im in the draft room as well. Hell I get excited about draft season in Madden if I can do it in real life.... 
    • I realize it about the expectations, but on paper, we drafted players who would have a chance to compete at positions where any could realistically step in and take the job---Freeling?  Yup.  Hunter?  Yup.  Brazzell?  Yup.  It is likely that all three see the field early and often.  Day 3:  Lee?  I see him as the #3 CB and the job is his when they are ready for him--and it is his to lose.  Hecht?  I loved him in mock research and called him the best C in the draft.  He might play a year behind Fortson or he could take the job--regardless, he is the obvious front runner for the 2027 season.  Wheatley?  I see Ransom and Moehrig as basically the same "in the box" type S.  If Wheatley can learn for a season behind Scott, he has the tools to be a serviceable FS, something this team needs.  Finally, Kuwatch seemed to be a PS pick, and he could be--but to win the 4th ILB job, he needs to beat out Bam Morris-Scott and with a 46.5 vertical (I can't do that on the triple jump) and a superior RAS rating, he looks like a special teamer and depth piece.....I forgot about Morgan's comment about giving up the 5th--probably to get ahead of Detroit.  Freeling has the athleticism and the tools to be the best OT in this draft.  The others lacked arm length or something like that--Freeling simply lacks a ton of experience.
