Greatest PG ever?

[Hoopography]

My top 5...

1. Oscar Robertson
2. Magic Johnson
3. John Stockton
4. Jerry West
5. Jason Kidd

Cant really argue with those ranking too much tarheelsnipe. Cool sports card forum id too.

1. Magic Johnson
2. Oscar Robertson
3. John Stockton

Then maybe Kidd. After those three, it doesn't really matter.

And with how Chris Paul doing, if he can keep up this level of playing for another 6 or 7 years, he will win over Jason Kidd easily. 20ppg, 10assist, 5 reb, 50%, 85%FT, 40%3P, 2.0 steals. This is just crazy to have all those numbers within 1 person. All he just needs to win more games in playoff.

Yeah Chris Paul should be up there in time, if he keeps it up.

I'd put Nash pretty high, he was able to make average players look very, very good. He even gave a couple of guys contracts that didnt really deserve.

I just have a hard time saying Magic is an actual PG, yes he played PG, but he wasnt a "true PG". He was just a really tall guy that could pass great. Magic could play every position, he just played PG. Kidd, Nash, Robertson (I think, idk), and Stockton could only play PG, that was their position. I think my thought on it is just a little different. I think its like if you put Lebron James at pg, he scores, rebounds, and passes well. So if he played PG, then yeah he would be up there too, just like Magic. But Lebron isnt a PG, he's SG/SF that can pass really well.

Glad to see someone mention chris paul,I do think kidd,nash,magic,and stockton make a nice list.

Its just hard to put Paul up there, he hasnt played much. Yeah he has been great, but in that amount of time? You cant put him up there with Kidd, Magic, Stockton, Nash, Robertson, Thomas, and such. Give him time, and MAYBE he will be there.
