My PG ranking :
1. Stephon Marbury - With Kidd out, he's going to be the man! Needs to show that he can be a leader and make others around him better.
2. Tony Parker - He's a great PG, and he's improved dramatically in the past 2 seasons. But he's got Duncan and Manu. Lucky guy.
3. Baron Davis - Too selfish, but he's a dominant player. Needs to stay healthy
4. Dwayne Wade - Superstar of the future, but needs to be more consistent with his shots. Tandem with Shaq is going to be fun to watch (when they're not playing the Knicks
)
5. Sam Cassell - He had one of the highest FG% and 3P% of all PGs last yr. Age doesn't seem to slow this guy. Again, he's got Garnett & Spree. That'll make your #s look good...
6. Steve Nash - Great PG, fun to watch. but not sure if he can stay healthy. Not good defensively. Can he gel with Amare & Matrix?
7. Mike Bibby - Another great PG. Consistent with high shooting %. Not a good defender.
8. Chauncey Billups - Good player, but not a fan of his game. If he goes down, will Detroit play Prince as Point Forward?
9. Steve Francis - Too selfish. Time to prove that he can be coached, and that he can carry a team on his back
10. Andre Miller - He came back quietly last season logging good numbers
Kidd - He's not going to be the same player after the knee surgery... I hope!
Payton - He's still good, but age is catching up with him. Remember how he got humiliated by Parker in the playoff series against Spurs? And he's not happy to be in Boston... what a p
ssy
Iverson - He's a SG. Doubt he can be an effective PG to run an offense. His FG & 3P%s are way too low.
My only concern with Marbury is his stamina & conditioning after playoffs and olympic games. Man, I can't wait for the season to start...!
