He's higher than that. At least top 15. At the point guard position only Paul and Westbrook are better IMO.

Deron Williams says hello. I love Steve Nash - especially on our team with the veterans and Dwight, but he's not in his prime any more. Even though I dislike him, I don't see how you would not have Rondo above him as well.

But man, am I ecstatic about getting Nash. He was the perfect guy to get in this scenario to go along with Pau and Howard. Our pick and roll is going to be absurd.

So, in terms of pure 1s, it's CP3, Deron, Rondo, Nash and Parker. You can arrange them in pretty much any order, except that CP3 will end up being #1 for most people. Rondo is the best defender and rebounder, Nash the best shooter in addition to having the highest BB IQ, Parker the best defense 'penetrator' and Deron is the "jack of all trades" in this group.

How is Williams better? He doesn't play any defense, isn't as efficient as Nash, and not nearly the playmaker Nash is. Rondo can't shoot and is an overrated defender.

Hmm......

1. Chris Paul
2. Derrick Rose (When healthy)
3. Deron Williams
4. Rajon Rondo
5. Russell Westbrook

I don't wanna trade him either, but it's very difficult to pass up Deron Williams who's argurably the best point guard in the league. The days of needing an elite center to win are over.

He's not even a top 5 guard. I wouldn't trade obviously Kobe or Bynum either.

1. Kobe
2. CP3
3. D-Wade
4. D-Will
5. Rondo
