    Williams. He can play any style and is a very physically strong player.

    Speaking oh which, what is up with Magic Johnson? He said, and I quote, Deron Williams is the best point guard in the league but Rondo is the best all around point guard in the league and it's not even close.

    What the fuck does that mean?

    DWill is just as good of a distributor as Rondo and he has a hell of a jumper. Rondo is much better on defense and a better rebounder. Therefore DWill is the best PG as far as leading a team and being able to shoulder a scoring load while Rondo is somewhat limited on offense but his all around game is better if you look at every aspect statistically....Thats the only way I can make sense of that comment.

    Rondo, since he plays defense. Williams is a sieve at the point, and it ends up hurting Utah.

    When healthy it's Chris Paul.

    Right now it's Deron Williams

    Rondo isn't far behind.

    Chris Paul.

    Although it's funny how many people are affected by the "what have you done for me lately" syndrome.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Chris Paul by a mile.

    Between Williams and Rondo, I'm not sure. I'd probably pick Rondo due to his impact on both ends of the court.

    It is only alllowed to judge players on the last 6 games they played. This I have learned since the Phoenix series. Unless, of course, you're Andre Miller. Then, your terrible play is excused.

    So hard to pick because each one of those brings something that is irreplaceable to their teams. I think Dwill is the best point guard at the moment because of his ability to take over games when he needs to. Rondo is playing so good on every aspect on the court that there is never a time you think "Man he is doing XXXX amazing if only he just wasn't getting blasted on XXXX". Nash is playing better then when he was in his prime but age is going to start having a huge impact soon. Chris Paul has the most talent of those four but he always seems to have something wrong with him.

    The best point guard in the league is D-Will. CP3 is close behind, but he just isn't big enough to be on the same level. Rondo is coming on, but his jumper is inconsistent and he benefits from having 3 future HOF'ers around him.

    The only guy who really even came all that close to CP isn't even on the list: Jason Kidd. He turned into a 3pt shooter and was still good at everything else. I'd take Rondo, Deron, and Nash after that for the top 5.
