Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
I think Jamal Crawford on the list is bullshit. He aint a point guard and he aint proven anything yet as a point guard. I think Brevin Knight is way underrated as a point guard.
I also think that Luke Ridnour should be higher up the list. No way Jamal Crawford, Chris Paul and Jason Terry are above him. Settle's success last season was also in a big part due to him.
And Billups as usual is underrated.

Baron Davis and Jason Kidd were nowhere near the #3 and #4 spot last year. They barely played enough games! And no way is Kirk Heinrich and Mike Bibby better then Chauncy Billups...a guy who's Finals MVP, second team ALL defensive unit, and has managed to take his team to the Finals twice and win once
No shit...Chauncey got robbed. Also, IMO, I don't think Kirk Heinrich is top 10. Just my .02
Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
Yeah, over at Pistons.com we had a bit of a hissy fit over Chauncey's rating. But we're used to it. Chauncey's numbers aren't spectacular so I guess he isn't that good :rolleyes:
Parker's ranking seems about right, except for the fact that Hinrich should be at about 12. So here's my top 10:
1. Nash
2. Iverson
3. Billups
4. Kidd
5. Davis
6. Bibby
7. Arenas
8. Parker
9. Tinsley
10. Johnson (PG? Okay, have fun in the ATL :D)
Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
1. Steve Nash - THE MVP. Nuff said daddy o.
2. Allen Iverson - Former MVP, shoot 1st, 2nd, and 3rd but his talent is unedniable.
3. Jason Kidd - Best passing, defending, and rebounding point guard in the league.
4. Stephon Marbury - Most underrated and disrespected player in the league?
5. Baron Davis - Fantastic overall game.
6. Gilbert Arenas - The 2nd best scoring point guard in the league, great steals, just a poro rebounder and passer.
7. Mike Bibby - A bit of a stat padder, his stats only increased when talent left the Kings and the wins plummeted.
8. Chauncey Billups - Mediocre passing, handling, and rebounding. Lives off of his shooting and low t/o's.
9. Jamaal Tinsley - Top-3 in passing, rebounding, and steals. Only knock against him is injuries.
10. Kirk Hinrich - Good overall game, a slightly better defender than Tinsley but Tinsleys better in all other areas.

^^^the hate continues. :rolleyes
Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
Out of the 20 players mentioned, 3 aren't PG's, 3 are rookies or 2nd year players who have proved nothing, 3 were injured for majority of last season and 3 pretty much suck.
Good list.

Once again, you prove why women should stay in the kitchen and off of basketball websites.
People aren't overlooking Chauncey Billups, they just relieze he's not that good. They know it's more the teams system and overall skill that wins, and not Chaunceys ability. Chaunceys probably the best shooting point guard in the league outside of Steve Nash, however no other part of his game is even above average.
Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
Are you saying Billups doesn't play great defense?
Re: CBS SportsLine.com | Positional Rankings: Point Guards
Yes I am. He was considered a mediocre defender his entire career up untill this past season. His All-Defensive 2nd team selection was a huge crock of sh*t. It was all Detroits team defense and the Wallace's.

Once again, you prove why dumbass Pacers fans should stay in the Pacers forum and off other winning teams basketball sites since they clearly know SHIT about the game outside of their homeristic views on their own team.
People ARE overlooking Chauncey Billups when a PG who has made all defensive second unit, Finals MVP, and helped carry his team to the NBA Finals 2 years in a row gets bumped down all the way to the #8 spot after guys like Kirk Henrich (who by the way isn't even a PG!) and Baron Davis (who has yet to make it through a full season to warrant his talent, yet alone the postseason). How many of those guys listed above Chancey Billups have an NBA ring or a MVP trophy in their name?
If it really is all about the "team system" and the "overall skills that win games" then Chaucey should be #1 on that list because his team's system and overall skills has gotten him the ultimate win---an NBA Championship. None of the others on that list (aside from Parker) have that.
As for the comment about there being "no other aspect of his game above average," I am not even going to bother getting into that. Stick with watching your dumbass Pacers.
Oh and tell your wife/girlfriend/mom or whoever is in your "kitchen" right now......that I feel sorry for them being stuck with an ass like you.
