2009 mid to late 1st round PGs?

Sizzlehot · Post #1 » by **Sizzlehot** » Thu Mar 24, 2011 8:38 pm

So far it's been 2 seasons. One of the most talented class of PGs in awhile. I know they won't be franchise players but some listed above are good enough to be a championship 1. Which one do you see potential in/build around and why?

So basically you're asking who the best PG out of those is? It's Holiday easily.

I agree that Holiday is easily the best choice out of the group because he brings the whole package. Solid defense, excellent play making, and a good head on his shoulders. If he could improve his shot and be a great outside threat, he's pretty much the perfect PG for any team.

JRue is the only point guard on that list you can actually build around. He has the highest ceiling by far and is the best out of the bunch right now. Still can't believe he fell out of the top 10.

So last years champs were the Lakers. Lets fit the 1s there and see which one fits the best. Bingo the answer is Toney Douglas! He would fit in the triangle beautifully. Perfection, another Dfisher in the making.

I dont know what you implying here but that pick was pre-arranged and picked for NY not LA picking Douglas and not wanting him :-?

.......Just like Lawson was NEVER Minn pick, they picked him directly for Den.

Still scratching my head at how Flynn got picked ahead of Lawsome.

Or one that has the most potential. Lawson's been fairly spectacular since Chauncey left.

Hard call since Jrue is really good for a 20 year old, but I'm going with Lawson. His ability to get inside the paint is

lawson, to me, is the perfect change of pace player. you bring him off the bench and he immediately speeds the game up and gives energy to his teammates. it might just be me, but he gets into the paint faster than any other player in the league.

that said id take holiday every time. i like his size, defense, and offensive ability a lot more.

Maynor is definitely the best passer of the bunch, his ast/to ratio is crazy

So many talented young point guards in the league. The Raptors couldn’t even get one. smh.

I thought this was a Roddy Beaubois thread. Imagine my surprise when he wasn't even listed.
