Chris Paul or Deron Williams

[Phil Hellmuth]

who u take?

[NorCal510]

cp

deron is a bitch... hes black and looks whiter than milk

[Cry Havoc]

Deron.

By a longshot. He's got size and will be a fantastic defender someday. Better court vision than Paul as well, although not quite as athletic.

[kingsfan]

CP3 :elephant

[mardigan]

Either, both are studs. Still cant believe the Hawks passed on both of them

[schadenfreude52]

Chris Paul.

[Cry Havoc]

You guys are going to be so wrong in 3 years. :lol

[DOMINATOR]

about equal but Deron is a better shooter with more range. paul plays a little better D.

my pick Deron

[AZLouis]

Deron Williams.

The coaching and mentoring he had is much better. Which will elevate his game even further in the future.

[Pistons < Spurs]

D-Will

[ducks]

neither
tp

[L.I.T]

Marvin Williams...ooops dammit! Do-over! I said the wrong Williams. Deron Williams, he has shooting range, excellent court vision and as he matures is going to turn into a bulldog of a defender.

[bdictjames]

Marvin Williams sucks.

Id take Deron though, he's a proven winner

[Nbadan]

Deron, Deron, deron.....If I was starting a team.....

[Leetonidas]

Chris Paul for sure.

[Bruno]

Chris Paul.

[JamStone]

Chris Paul.

[jmard5]

Close. But I would take Chris Paul. He's quicker and I believe has better all around skills.

[Amare_32]

Chris Paul

[T-Pain]

Cp3

[tlongII]

I'd take Deron although I like both very much. Deron's size gives him the advantage in my opinion.

[BacktoBasics]

good thing this was a poll

[mabber]

neither
tp

TP's allstar days might be over with Williams & Paul coming on so strong now.

I'd take Williams over Paul but either would be nice to have. I'd take both over Parker.

[Lebowski Brickowski]

TP's better than so many Spurs fans realize. The only better player on the team is TD. I'd take TP over chris paul, deron williams, AND gilbert arenas. deron williams is the best of those 3, as good or maybe better than TP but I'd still take TP straight up. One can't put a value on his experience and winning tradition - especially at 24 yrs old.

[Tippecanoe]

deron williams = chris paul

but i'll take cp3 just because he went to wake

[Medvedenko]

Smush Parker....

Deron...more steady than CP3.

[J.T.]

Deron Williams for sure.

[mabber]

Front page article on Williams in Dallas Morning News sports section today. That guy has a huge chip on his shoulder. Reminds me of Josh Howard in that respect.

[TDMVPDPOY]

for the last 2 years, cp3 and the hornets have peakd to early and lookd like making the playoffs, and then they dissappeared after the ASB.

deron williams, that utah team is stackd, they go as far he and boozr goes, ak47 should be traded

[fitzgerald]

Give me Deron Williams. He is a pure point guard.

[baseline bum]

Chris Paul. You give Paul two all-star bigman like Boozer and Okur, and the Hornets would be title contenders and not 5-seeds.

And what's a team that's up 2-0 with a WCF berth waiting in the wings? Chicken soup?

[Horry For 3!]

I like both. Though I did like Deron Williams way better than Chris Paul before they started their NBA careers. But Chris Paul made me change my mind with his play. So I like them both equally. They are also pretty much equal on the NBA court. Though for the Spurs (If we didn't have Tony) I would like to have Chris Paul.

[RaGnaroK]

i'll probably choose cp3

[TheSanityAnnex]

Cp3.

[slayermin]

Deron Williams probably shoots threes better. But I would rather have Chris Paul. He has that relentless attitude a great point guard needs to be succesful.

[Texas_Ranger]

Paul.

All five of the Hornets starters missed extended time this season with injuries. In fact, just about everybody significant on the team missed significant time at some point or another. And they STILL almost made the playoffs.

Chris Paul

[Dro210]

CP3.... Not even close imo

[Fillmoe]

easily chris paul

[SpursIndonesia]

Deron Williams. CP's a better distributor, but Williams offensive game is more potent, and he's the better defender beetween those two.

Better defender? Are you for real? Have you been watching Baron Davis abuse him in the series?

[SpursIndonesia]

And you're saying that CP's a defensive monster @PG spot ? LOL.

Baron Davis is playing at another level in this post season, that wouldn't be a good indicator of Williams overall defensive ability. In the Rocket series -yes i got to see 3 games aired in my country through StarSport- i watch him guarding TMac on some instances, and he held his own quite well in those switches.

I'm not saying Deron is in a higher level compared to CP, but personally, if i have to choose as an armchair GM, Deron is my preferred player to have.

And yes, i value man to man defense more compared to stealing ball here and there, fact that that's exactly the philosophy used by my fav team.

Baron would absolutely destroy Cp3 right now. Don't think Paul would have a shot in hell at guarding him. There's not a PG in the league who could shut him down. Hell, he'd give Bowen fits the way he is playing.

I am not saying CP3 is a better defender but Deron is not exactly a shut down defender either. Davis would have his way with both of them. I still take Paul over Williams.
