i agree with ya. i almost didnt even want to add him to the list because of that reason but when he is on his game he is fun to watch. same with Davis. but really who else is out there....Kidd? same boat, often injured. Jamal Crawford? def not top 10.

and are we ranking them as players as a whole or ranking them whether they are good at their position, because tony parker does not play like a true point guard, i.e. passing the ball and running his teams offense, but he is a great player overall, so what exactly are we ranking them on

I disagree. He's a classic drive and kick point guard. The offense doesn't run through him all the time because he has Timmy. When you have a post presence like that, you have to run your offense from the inside out. Plus the Spurs are based on ball movement, so even if he initiates the offense/runs the play, he may not always get the assist. Doesn't mean he's not a great floor general.

yea i guess you're right, im probably just judging him because he doesnt get near as many assists as the other top PGs, but i honestly havent watched the spurs play this year so i probably shouldnt be talking

I've seen some serious omissions from most of these lists so far, so here's mine.

1) Chris Paul   -  straight up pimp
2) Deron Williams   -   takes over, does it all
3) Chauncey Billups  -  strokes 3's, physical
4) Steve Nash  -   when healthy no one makes their team better, even with horrible D
5) Jose Calderon  -  true point guard, never turns it over
6) Devin Harris   -   slasher, good defender
7) Jason Kidd  -  still gets it done, clutch
8) Monta Ellis  -  crazy fast scorer, if he shoots better gonna be a stud
9) Rajon Rondo  -  on any night can explode in pts, rbs, stls, asts...needs to learn to shoot more than layups
10) Baron Davis  -  extremely physical, can take over games still
11) Gilbert Arenas  -  streaky.  when he's on, 40pts, when he's off 12TOs
12) Mo Williams  -  Shoot 3's, get it to LeBron
13) Tony Parker  -  FAST.  hurt a lot, put up better numbers on shittier team.  Sexy Wife
14) Jameer Nelson  -  only seen one real good half season out of him, lots of potential
15) Derrick Rose  -  decent all year, was awesome in playoffs, still young will move up a lot
