Damian Lillard

[Mally_G]

If yall had to rank lillard, wall, irving, lawson, and holiday in order what would it be?

1. Damian Lillard

2. Jrue Holiday

3. John Wall

3a. Kyrie Irving

5. Ty Lawson

5a. Michael Carter Williams

This is a tough list solely on career so far or performance this year.

Lillard is clearly the one with an unlimited ceiling, and he's gelled with his teammates a lot easier than the rest.

Jrue Holiday is coming off an All Star season, considering that was by default because the other top PGs in the East were hurt. He's helping the Pelicans make some moves in the West, especially with some of the older teams falling off, and he's finding AD in the right spots to help his game. They are a healthy player or two from a legit team built around AD and Jrue, but right now they too young.

John Wall hasn't done anything in the league, but you can see that this past off season he's improved in areas where people complained the most about him. He's averaging 20 and 9 and he's finally shown a jumper and getting his teammates involved. The verdict is still out on his ceiling, which he moved up with his improved play this season. Irving is the same way, but he's come into the league an imposing 1on1 player with the ability to get the rack whenever he wants due to his handles, and that leads to him scoring often. He's in the same boat as Wall, except people are caught up in his And1 type handling and rate him higher solely on that, but he's just the same as Wall in many aspects of his game.

Ty Lawson is a solid PG, but I truly believe he's peaked at his game, unless he's put into pressure situations. I think he could be doing more for Denver, but that could be coaching. He plays like a veteran and I don't see his career peaking any higher. His career will be about the same as it is now, until he gets older and he's on a contending team and helps them out.

Michael Carter Williams should be in this discussion of top young PGs. the boy is a potential walking triple double, and a true game changer. Philly is 1-11 without him in the lineup. The only issue he will have to deal with is his health. i can see that he's injury prone and it's going to plague him his entire career.

^^Stop being a homer. Holiday ain't scoring enough to be ranked ahead of those guys. #5 is his right place in that list.

[Heavy In The Game]

easily top 10, there's so many good pgs so top 10 is damn near elite still

 

[Meta_Conscious]

Kyrie shits on Wall...

saw them in the preseason... Wall dont have that that killer instinct...

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

lol....

 

[Billy_Poncho]

Gimme Wall over Irving, better passer, defender, better in transition. Irving got the 3-ball over Wall, but he's even been a low % shooter this year...

 

[S2J]

His team is 20-5. Of course he's in the all star game. He's damn near an MVP candidate

 

[R.D.]

On second thought, he ain't a all star

Too deep, dnt see him getting in

 

[NothingButTheTruth]

Kyrie is the best player on his team, so the entire weight of the team is carried on his back. Kyrie is the franchise player. Lillard is another piece to the puzzle, and the 2nd best player on his team. A distant 2nd at that. Y'all have to learn how to keep shit in context.

Also, don't bring up stats for this year and act like it's official. The season is only a 3rd of the way finished.

Coaches n players vote for reserves. They reward winners. Its very rare that wining teams dotn at least get 2, let alone THE winningest team in the NBA.

I promise this is not a debate outside of the IC.

You saying Stephen Curry ain't gon make the All-Star team this year after not making it last year?

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

there are winning teams that end up with a snub all the time

Relax there. Aldridge is a more suitable MVP candidiate with his play and dominance this season. Keep the trolling to a minimum here.

Who do you have making it over him? Kobe may not play so there might be a vacancy there for a guard.

Name me the PG Portland had before drafting him and tell me what he's doing to help his current team? *waits for response and for u to google it*

Dame wasn't a top 5 pick in the draft. He led the league in mins as a rookie last season with no back up PG yet still put up good stats. There are games where LMA struggles and he becomes the 2nd option where Lillard takes over so the whole distant #2 option is void. Kyrie has a support system in Cleveland he hasn't grasped the whole concept of team bball. Check his shot slection it will tell you a lot.

This, wall has been more efficient nd a betta playmaker then kyrie dis year, while kyrie has had some huge scorin outburst, hes underachieved wit dis roster nd presses a lor too much at times

Here's the 2013 West Squad. Not many changes for 2014 imo, and i have Lillard as 1 of them

Kevin Durant

Blake Griffin (Clippers)

Dwight Howard (Lakers-Rockets)

Kobe Bryant (Lakers) Curry

Chris Paul (Clippers)

3 F-C

LaMarcus Aldridge (Trail Blazers)

David Lee (Warriors) Kevin Love

Tim Duncan (Spurs) Anthony Davis or Dirk or David Lee

3 G's

James Harden (Rockets)

Tony Parker (Spurs)

Russell Westbrook (Thunder)

1 Any Position

Zach Randolph (Grizzlies) Damion Lillard or Dirk, or David Lee

GS is barely .500 so i dnt think they'll get 2. Anthony Davis from a losin squad wont get in ahead of him. So I think Lillard will make it.
