    Who are the top 5 PGs next year?

    Who are your top 5?

    I know Raymond Felton is up there. He can score, pass, shoot, and play D. I think he will come out next year as the best PG in the country.

    Chris Thomas? Jameer Nelson? Chris Duhon?

    I'd say Ben Gordon, Jameer Nelson, Chris Thomas, Chris Duhon, you basically named them...

    Gordon is really a SG though. He may be a PG in the NBA, but he is playing 2 guard now, especially with Taliek Brown there.

    Duhon over Thomas, Flores, Horton, and Nelson is a stretch. And Gordon "btw it's Gordon not Gordan" plays only SG.

    Jameer Nelson #1? He is 5-8, and this isn't based on your NBA future, but I would rather have a few guys run my team.

    Luis Flores definately isn't #2. I've seen him play a bunch of times and he can score, but in a conference like, and the competition? He isn't worthy of that spot.

    I want to see GMac play with Melo and Duanny, and have the defense focus on him and Warrick.

    Chris Duhon really needs to step up and have a big year. He plays well, just not what people think he can do. He needs to put up TJ Ford numbers, 15, 8, 4.

    Not many people know how good Horton is, even me. I saw a game I had on tape a few weeks ago, and then watched the McDs game and I think this kid is real good.

    Ray Felton, definatley top 5. IMO, the number 1 PG in the country (unbiased) He can play D, shoot, drive, dish and run a team. Sometimes I would say, he is good, and then I saw him other times, where he would take over the game, and I would say "Holy Sh!t" he is good.

    Julius Hodge isn't really a true PG, he plays all three spots.

    Aaron Miles is good, needs a jumpshot.

    It's nice to know that someone else appreciates Luis Flores, but you ranked McNamara too high. He is very easy to figure out. He always head fakes, takes a dribble, then pulls up. BC told me this.

    Duhon is top five. He just needs to work on his long range shot he plays his heart out every game. He pretty welled played every minute in March Madness. Gordan is really good too. I have never seen Luis Flores play. Duhon is much better than Aaron Miles. Duhon had an off year. Watch out next year.

    Duhon is not top five. Having heart doesn't win games. Having basketball talent wins big games. How could Duhon have had an off year if he has never had a better one? Bottom line is that he isn't any better than Chris Hill.

    No, Duhon is NOT better than Chris Thomas, and the way you worded the sentance made it sound like you thought Chris Thomas was on the Spartans, FYI he plays for Notre Dame.

    He was asking Spartanfan if anyone on Mich St. was bad because he thinks that Spartanfan thinks no one on Mich St. can do wrong.

    Tell that to Willis Reed and the NY Knicks
    Tell that to Scottie Pippen and the 98 Championship(with his back injury)
    Tell that to the Nuggets(who won some 20 odd games just on pure heart).


    I know you are talking about college basketball, but heart does win games.
