Top 20 assists in the entire league. He averages the same assists a game as Curry, Nash, Lawson, and Jennings. So he's top 15 in scoring and top 20 in assists in the entire NBA. Those 2 stats right there make him a top 20 guard player in the NBA.

Oh also the Blazers haven't had a serviceable back up PG the entire season until now with addition of Maynor. He's been there for 15 games. And since Maynor has been there, Lilliard is averaging 21.6 pts, 48.5% FG, 44.5% 3s. And again, as a rookie. He will improve, just like every young player does.

Ha he's average? Ok so what does a player have to average for you to considering them great? 30 and 15 shooting 55% from field and 45% from 3? Or just a great PER?

You must have Monta Ellis penciled for the Hall of Fame

Yes, he's average. Do you understand he's a PG who averages 6.5 APG in 39mpg? Do you understand he's a pg who shoots 16 times a game inefficiently? Those numbers aren't good.

He can start by shooting less and passing more. He can have better shot selection. He's got the best scoring PF playing next to him and an up and coming SF. Use them.

CP is great. Parker is great. Nash is great. Rondo is great. They make their team better. They are the definition of great PGs.

Lillard is not great. Jennings is not great. Vasquez is not great. Conley isn't great.
