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.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
