Seconded the Millsap vote, he and Jokic should be great to watch this next season.

It's a tough spot for sure. Damien Lillard/IT are more of the first option and Millsap is the man making the best impact. Love belongs to the list too

Why is Conley so high? Not judging just curious.

My guess is the way he balled out in the playoffs against the Spurs. He really showcased his ability for someone who isn't super flashy.

Point taken, if we get enough votes on this one then I will put him in the next one.

He had a great playoff run and was quite impressive during the regular season. Relative to other PGs he's also a pretty good defensive player as well, which can not be said for most of the perimeter guys on this list.

Yeah, Conley's defense is what gives him the edge over guys like Lillard, Irving, IT as the 6th best PG behind the elites like Curry, WB, Harden, CP3 and Wall.

I think it's between Gasol, Lillard, Millsap..picked Gasol. He's been leading Memphis to the playoffs with Conley for a while now with a revolving door of mediocre wings and PF's

Irving, Lowry, Jokic, Conley, Blake, AD are slightly high. KD should be ahead of Curry.
