1. Dwill
2.Rondo
3.DRose
4.Nash
5.Paul.

The reverse order is actually closer to the real order than his list.

The best on ball defender in the last decade. The guy made himself into an NBA player and a world champion. Like him or not Bowen was a great defender. Id also put some value on his opinion. He has defended just about all of these guys.

It's not hard to argue that Chris Paul is better than Derrick Rose.

This is purely reflected on the playoffs. If CP3 makes the playoffs next year and has a solid series, people will be calling him the best PG in the game again.

Wrong...Deron Williams will always be better than Chris Paul

Paul and Nash should be at the top.

It's pretty fricking easy to argue with. Rondo is great, but no frickin way he is the second best PG in the NBA. He is putting up 16/10 in the playoffs. Really good, but nearly as good as everybody is making it out to be. People are acting like he is putting up the greatest postseason for a PG in a decade and it's bullshite.

In the playoffs

Rondo this year - 16/10
Paul in 08- 24/11
Paul last year - 16/10 (considered a major disapointment)
Williams this year - 24/10
Willaims last year - 20/11
Rose this year - 27/7

Make a couple flashy passes and crazy layups with Mo Williams guarding you and you become the best PG in the league

Lets face it, Paul is impossible to rank right now. He got whipped pretty good in his last playoffs then got injured, missed most of the season and looked average at best when he came back. (too early IMO) Next season will tell the tale for him.

Also, to piggy-back off of your strong post, of the PGs you listed, Rondo plays w/ the best teammates by far. Paul's were easily the worst.

PEople went nuts cause DWill dominated Portland freaking trail blazers and announted him the best PG in the world.

He then proceeded to shoot under 40 percent vs the lakers.

The best PG in the world does not shoot less than 40 percent and have his team swept in the biggest 4 games of the year.

Personally I'd take Rose over Paul just based on the style I'd play that I like to play. But that's just me..Paul is an overall better player. I just like my STAR player to be able to finish at the rim and be able to hit the off the dribble mid range jumper.

Rondo can't ever be a top 3 PG until he is able to hit a 15 foot jumpshot. His stats are also inflated cause of the personnel around him. Put Chris Paul on the celtics..that's just scary.

Yeah, Rondo did some amazing shite so far in the playoffs. But when you have Mo Williams guarding you and Pierce, Allen, and KG spotted up across the floor, it's pretty much an open invitation to make a highlight film.

He has had a great run but not nearly as great as the media is making it out to be. And when you look at regular season numbers, it isn't even a debate.

i'll put rondo in my top 3 as soon as he adds the midrange jumper to his game, i might even put him at number 1 but not till then.

How do you think he looked when he came back? I thought the team actually played better with Collison in there.

Paul was off to the best start of his career prior to the injury. He shot an insane 58% in the first 11 games before he went down. Obviously he wouldn't have maintained that, but it's still incredibly impressive for an undersized PG. Even in his "bad" season he shot 49% from the field and 41% from 3. There's one hell of a recency bias on this site.
