It's been over 2 decades since a PG was the best player on a championship team.

3 of the past 5 years a team has taken a PG as the #1 pick. Nba teams have no idea what they are doing.

Tell me who the great players on those Allen Iverson teams that went to the Finals were?
Iverson's 76ers only made it once. No plural needed

A great PG is the absolute best asset a team can have. Even if the rest of your team sucks, you can beat anybody with a great PG.
Kyrie Irving is a great PG. Cavs suck.

Look at Chris Paul consistently getting the Hornets into the playoffs without much talent around him.
Chandler averaged like 12 and 12 while in NOLA.
West was an All-Star.
Peja was a sharpshooter. Pretty solid team.

I agree with you, but its basically a team with one of the top two players in the league that wins the championship, regardless of what position that player plays.

So you would say that the 76ers went to the NBA Final?

The turnout once the Hornets drafted CP3 was immediate and noticeable. Drafting him turned the Hornets into a good team.

this board seems to have an obsession with Irving.. he's going to be very good in a few years and possibly a top 5 player even, but right now his defense is too flammable.

Billups & tony parker have both been Finals MVP within the last 10 years

Pay attention

Parker was the best player on that team in the playoffs. And Billups was for sure the best player on the Pistons. He just wasnt a superstar

I'm just saying, he didnt do it on his own.
He had some really good players around him.

quote:I think you are confused. You are confusing scorers with "best player".
Again, Ben Wallace was the best player on that team. also that was a once in a generation defense. PGs do not matter in the NBA, it's a fill in position. It's going to be hard for a CP3 led team to ever win a championship. Bigs and wings reign supreme
Different positions have different roles.
And different teams have different roles for different positions.

Yes a pg needs players around him to win in the nba. Just like every other freaking position.
Look at how teams have drafted of late. And how good were the clippers before Paul went there. The cavs suck. They would probably have 3-4 wins without Irving.
This least valuable position bs is one of the dumbest arguments I've heard in a long time on here.
