Just to start things off, Chris Paul does not lead the league in steals and averages 21 pts a game. He is 2nd in steals behind the true best PG In the game, Baron Davis. Baron averages 23pts a game and 9assists a game. Baron is a guy that loves attacking the basket and getting fouled, but also kicks it out to set up 3's. Paul is more of a typical PG who likes to shoot and pass, while driving it in a couple times a game. But Baron is much more effective at what he does then Paul is. Paul has about 40 more assists on the year then Baron, which really isnt that much. But I looked deeper into it and found that about 32% of his assits go to Peja. That means that Paul really only looks for one guy to pass it to. Baron has a better team to work with, but none are nearly as good shooters as Peja. If Paul keeps that % up, teams will know to cover Peja tighter when Paul's got it ( which is most of the time since he's a PG), which will result in less assists and more t.o. Baron's favorite target to pass to on the court is Stephen Jackson at 16% and then Harrington at 14%. This means Baron knows how to spread the ball around more and is a more dominate force to stop. And showing you all that, I still must say that baron is a MUCH more complete player because he has recorded 24 blks on the season, compared to 1 for Paul, and baron has 62 more rebounds on the season.

man i thought i took the challenge this is so gay i did all that for nothing

I can name a couple PGs that are arguably better than Paul:
- Steve Nash
- Baron Davis
- possibly even Deron Williams (he is just underated)

relax jmoney, it will be alright

Vote T-Fo, Nash is the man

at least have something to laugh at to start the morning off....hahaha

vote goes to the

---------------------------------------->

I think this TD is premature, maybe in a couple of years it will be true, but not now

why would you wait a couple of years when eh TD says this year...

D Will is the best for a building team, but it has to go to Nash still. But D Will is ahead of Chris Paul. I will TD that one all day

marbury has career avg.'s of 20 and 10 dimes that doesnt mean he's the best point guard...paul is good but not yet the best

Paul is the best now. He's proving that this year.

Nash is still top dog

Paul is next best young PG

1-Nash
2-Kidd
3-Baron Davis
4-CP
5-Tony Parker

CP single handedly???

LOL

He has talent, David West (underrated PF), Peja Stojakovic (deadly 3-ball shooter), Tyson Chandler is a beast defensively and rebounding, Morris Peterson is a spot up shooter who has underachieved this year

I won't vote yet since T-fo hasn't posted his second argument.

Sorry had to go to school today missed my argument so here it is

You say Chris Paul hasn't siongle handedly turned the Hornetrs around the is Paul's 3rd year. He has led the Hornets to the 3rd best record in the NBA. If you take Paul away from the Hornets then they are not even a playoff team while if you take Nash away from the Suns then they are still a playoff team. Paul is the better all around PG and you have to remember that offense isn't everything.

Deron Williams and Chris Paul...that is a debate that is going to go on for years to come. As an Illini fan I am obviously bias, but I feel these 2 are equals as point guards.

indy, I'll say it again...he's one of the best and on the rise. But to definitively say he's the BEST? I'm not ready to go there yet. There's a lot of talent at PG in the NBA, and I'm not just talking Nash.

i really think kidd is the best.
