Curry and it's not even close. The reason is that every PG listed is a shooter, not just a distributor. Paul would be the most pure form of a PG that does both well, but since the PG is the 1st option to shoot the ball (based on the fact they have the ball at the beginning of most possessions) the better they shoot the better they are. None of those shoot better than Curry. Any of those would run circles around anything on the Spurs roster with a "PG" after their name.

Curry is a gifted passer but he's too free to turn the ball over without extreme consequence because his team is good enough to compensate. So he'll sling the ball across the court and turn it over more than he should, but he has the ability to not do that and still be effective as long as he doesn't try to do too much. With KD on the floor as well, his passing is even more important.

John Wall is highly underrated. I'd like to see him on a team with a legit chance at winning.

1. Curry


(big gap)



2. Harden


3. J. Wall


4. Westbrook


5. CP3


6. Kyrie

[lebomb]

Curry is more SG than PG in my opinion.

[lebomb]

Pure PG goes to Kyrie, CP3 ( in his better days ), Wall, WB and Harden. Pure PGs typically look to run the offense and distribute first. SG's are given the green light to jack it when open and are typically your best shooter.

Kyrie often takes more shots than Lebron. I wouldn't call him a pass first PG. Harden is a more willing/better passer than Irving. Chris Paul is the best PG in the league if you factor in defense and passing like you should with every player assessment.

[HarlemHeat37]

In what universe is Kyrie a pass-first PG?:lol

Since Dominos' injury, Curry has been near 2016 form, tbh..nobody is even close to him when he's playing at that level..he's the only PG on this list who can kill without dominating the ball, which is a massive advantage..

1. Curry

2. Harden
3. Westbrook
4. Wall
5. Paul

[lebomb]

I also said run the offense. Kyrie also has the best handles by far of any of the PGs.

You really think Wall > CP3? Think Wall made huge strides this year, but not sure I can get on board with that...next year it could be true, though.

[Venti Quattro]

You really think Wall > CP3? Think Wall made huge strides this year, but not sure I can get on board with that

This season, yes. Overall, of course not.

[SpursFan86]

This season, yes. Overall, of course not.

I guess - if you dock CP3 for missing 20 games. When they were both on the court, I think CP3 was clearly the better player.

[140]

Why are there 3 SGs on the list?

[apalisoc_9]

Curry is so dangerous with or without the ball.

The best PG in tge league.

Even before Steve Kerr, he was already clearly the best offball player in the league.

But he also happens to be a fantastic on ball player and one of the top 5 all time in terms of dribbling the basketball.

[140]

From the PGs I'll say it's Curry, CP3, Wall...with Wall closing in fast tbh

[lebomb]

Kyrie is a better point than all of em. Everyone ignored my comment. In a 7 game series where they guarded each other Kyrie TORCHED Curry. How in the hell is Curry a better PG? He can shoot better from long range, but Kyrie crossed his ass up all series long and hit big time KEY shots on Curry. Including the game 7 winning 3pt shot in Currys crib. :claw

[skut_farkus]

Kyrie is one of the biggest ball stoppers in the NBA tbh. Had a great game 7 and amazing shot but for the first few games of the series was one of the main reasons the Cavs were down with his iso play style.

Not to mention not being able to make the playoffs in the shitty east until LeBron came :lol great robin but could never lead a team like the other guys

:lmao OH MY GOD!!!! Curry has the fucking dream team!!! You talking about Kyrie needing Lebron? Curry has fuggin KD, KT, Green.....WTF? He couldnt do it last year without KD also. :lmao

Gotdayum Todays NBA :lol

[skut_farkus]

Kyrie couldn't even make the playoffs lmao

[skut_farkus]

In the east :lol

[lebomb]

In the east :lol


How come he torches Curry every time they play?

[lebomb]

Look at who stepped it up in the finals. Look who had the better stats across the board guarding each other 1 on 1. Look who won the championship. If I wanted the most accurate 3pt shooter, I would take Curry. If I want the best PG, its Kyrie.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/4q0ii1/kyrie_irving_and_steph_curry_regular_season_vs/

Curry did not have one single anything better than Kyrie against each other 1 on 1 in 7 total games. Kyrie torched Curry........... its not even debatable. Kyrie shot better from everywhere, had a better scoring average, less turnovers, and more steals. If 7 games against each other doesnt prove anything, nothing will.

:lmao This is a joke to argue.

[unleashbaynes]

Curry is far and away a better PG than Kyrie Irving.

And i fucking hate the guy, but i have to give props.

I think he is a better long range shooter, but not PG. Just my opinion.

Curry really is a SG.

John wall is pretty underrated

Kylie doesn't even run his team, LeBron does :lol

LOL........ok. Lebron is the Kang, but I guarantee you he would not have ranged in Cleveland without Kyrie. Kyrie was arguably MVP in the finals.

[DMC]

LOL........ok. Lebron is the Kang, but I guarantee you he would not have ranged in Cleveland without Kyrie. Kyrie was arguably MVP in the finals.

Funny how Lebron needs all the guys who never made the fucking playoffs just to ring, after he comes from Miami where he just made 4 consecutive Finals and 2 rings.

So you coach eh? lol

I don't recall the Cavs completing a huge comeback win with Lebron on the bench the entire 4th quarter.

[140]

LOL........ok. Lebron is the Kang, but I guarantee you he would not have ranged in Cleveland without Kyrie.
I agree, but that was thanks to Kylie's scoring not his point guard abilities. He doesn't know how to properly run a team, he needs LeBron to do that otherwise he's stuck missing the playoffs in the shitty east tbh

[140]

Also if Kylie was such a great point guard LeBron wouldn't have spent the whole fucking season bitching about needing another playmaker, tbh :lol

[lebomb]

I give up.......I give yall solid actual facts on this one and ya still talk shit. Kyrie outplayed Curry in 7 games head to head and WON the championship. He was arguably MVP.

Lebron was bitching about a play maker because GSW now has 4 of them. So why should Lebron think they can win it all with just 3. :rolleyes

Todays NBA :lol

[TD 21]

I'd still classify Harden as a shooting guard because he's a wing defensively, the same way James and Antetokounmpo function as de facto point guards offensively, but are combo forwards defensively.

1. Curry
2. Paul
3. Westbrook
4. Wall
5. Lowry

Regular season Lowry is better than regular season Wall, but the latter has repeatedly proven to be better in the playoffs and is still trending up, while the former has plateaued.

The facts are that LeBron led the team in every category and Kyrie was able to contribute because of all the attention on LeBron. This thing where you cherry pick 7 games and ignore everything else is not very convincing.

But yeah, kyrie was "arguably the MVP". :rolleyes

Lebron will always lead the team he is on basically. Until he is just old and busted. Kyrie avg 27 pts, 4 stls a game, and he made Curry look average at best, so dont act like he wasnt in the MVP conversation. You make it seem like he didnt do shit. He hit the winning 3 right in Currys piehole :rolleyes:rolleyes

[Clipper Nation]

Kyrie is absolute garbage. He would be out of the league already if not for LeBron.

[unleashbaynes]

Cavs would've swept if you switched Irving and Curry.

Only ST NBA feels this way. Can't take any of these comments seriously.

This is hyperbole and wrong. Kyrie would be a good PG on a good team. He's far from being "out of the league without Lebron". He's as good as Lillard.

[LkrFan]

For me it's Kyrie. I said back in 2012, when LeHype was coat tailing D-Whistle, that by the end of 2013 season Kyrie would surpass CP0 as the premier PG in the NBA.

His assist totals won't wow you because LeHype's usage rate is so astronomically high. LeHype dominates the ball like no other. Take LeHype off the Cavs and Kyrie gets 8-10 dimes a game to go with about 27ppg.

That's obvious asswipe. You take the best player in the NBA away, of course your team gets worst.

I'm stating my case why Kyrie is the best. Curry is a very close 2nd.

[lebomb]

Also, Kyrie comes through when it matters. In the finals (2016), and also when Lebron has a mediocre game and the Cavs need someone to step up.

Curry though overrated is largely responsible for making the best system in the history of basketball. Westbrook's stat-padding ass can carry a team to 45+ wins and Chris fall at age 32 can still easily turn a 40 win franchise into 50.

But he dribbles good :cry
but he can have one good quarter in 10 total quarters played. :cry

I do like Curry, he is the best tough shot maker in the league. BUT!!! Ive seen him at 0-7 from 3pt land during games a couple of times and guess what? He kept chucking to end up 1-11, 2-12, 0-11. So he has bad chuckified games as much as anyone else.
