And here I am defending your boy Connoly.

I have no idea why so many people are down on Conley on here.
Im not down on Conley. People don't realize Bledsoe's prowess on D because he's been relegated to backup PG duties thus far in his career.
If you take Bledsoe's averages from games where he played 30+ minutes last season (basically a stretch when CP3 went down), you are looking at the 2nd highest RPG, 5th best SPG, and best BPG amongst PGs.
In 12 games he started, here were some of his matchups
John Wall- 13 points, 33%FG
Lillard- 16 points, 35% FG
Jameer Nelson- 16 points, 37%
Rubio- 9 points, 44%
Avery Bradley- 4 points, 25%
Lin- 12 points, 45%
Conley, 5 points, 18%
Curry, 10 points, 36%
This doesn't mean Conley is a bad defender. I never said he was, nor did I say he wasn't any good.

Tony Parker continues to be underrated. Too bad he got hurt in the playoffs.

Parker is my #2 behind CP3.
Westbrook a distant 3rd.

In what world right now, are CP3 and Westbrook better than Tony Parker? Do explain.

I get Paul's efficiency, bball IQ, and intangibles, but someone help me here.
He has never been past the 2nd round of hte playoffs.
Rose got to an ECF. Westbrook helped OKC get to the Finals. Parker almost had his 4th ring last season.
How does the best PG in the league not at least have a Conference Finals appearance on his resume?
Just throwing this out there:
Paul has never beaten Derrick Rose head to head. He also got swept 2 years ago by Parker's Spurs, and lost 4 straight to Memphis last year.
JMO, Tony Parker is the best PG in the league. Not Chris Paul.
Team game, brah. You're going at this the wrong way, IMO.

No, its the same reason Lebron got so much shite before he won his 1st ring.
Except CP3 hasn't been to a Conference Finals, let alone an NBA Finals.
Heck, Lebron made 2 Finals at least before he won his first ring, so the "best player in the game" title had significant merit to it.
And for that matter, Lebron is a fricking freight trainish PG most of the time who makes everyone on his team better.
And thats a PG's job. I just can't say CP3 is the best PG in the NBA when he routinely gets abused by other top PGs and his teams haven't done well in the postseason.

So you are ranking PGs on the best teams or the top PGs in the league?
Chris Paul is going to go down as a top 3 PG ever. Over the body of their career, there is no other current PG who touches him.
The 2nd best player on his team has been David West and now Griffin. Those Hornet teams had terrible depth, coaching, and FO. The Clippers are in the midst of building something.
Lets act like Rondo has a title without 3 HOFs
Or Parker has one without the HOF players and coaches he had the luxury of playing with.
Or Lebron without 2 other stars.

whole lot of cp3 nut riders in here.
Westbrook and Parker are both much better players.
The only thing cp3 is #1 at is flopping

Hilarious to me how people constantly underrate rondo. And the criticism that he holds the ball for assists is lame and lazy.
Posted on 7/22/13 at 12:32 am to tgr4ever
I'm not going to read all of this but anyone whose doesn't have Parker and Paul 1 and 2 in either order is dumb as rocks.

If everyone is perfectly healthy and I need a pg for game 7 I choose Rondo all day.
He can absolutely control a game by himself. If he ever had a jump shot you'd be talking all time with him.

Anybody that doesn't have Parker in the top 2 just doesn't know basketball or is biased for their teams PG. This season he was the best player on the best team in the west. Seriously some ppl had Curry over him. What a joke.

Without reading the thread, lemme guess that the CP3 dickriders came out of the woodwork
Parker is better, btw.
