I get that they were younger, but a rookie is a rookie.

Lilllard isn't as explosive as Westbrook, but who in the NBA besides LBJ and a healthy DRose is? Nobody. And Lillard is already putting up the same #s as Jennings, but with a better FG and 3pt %, which is what people are knocking on him for.

In a few years, Lillard will become a top 5 PG IMO. Westbrook, Rose, Curry, Kyrie, and Holiday. Lillard is right in this pack of young PGs. Who would you have over Lillard from PGs that are 24 and younger that I didn't list? I'd rather him than JWall and Knight, I put Rose on that list because he is a stud, but we don't know how he will come back from that knee injury.

I'm not arguing that Lillard can't become a top 5-10 PG, but that does not equal elite/superstar.

Davis is gonna be a top PF next season.

Paul, Rondo, D. Williams, Parker, Conley, and Rubio aren't going anywhere for a while.

You are skewing the argument to make your point. A more relevant list would be a list of all players more explosive than Lillard. That list is much longer.
