I think Boozer has a bigger advantage over West than Paul has over Deron, so I take D-Will and Booze.

I'd go with Paul and West, just because Paul is so much better than everyone else.

Deron and Paul are equal and Boozer is better than West. Utah beats No if they meet in the playoffs.

Considering the responses given i would have expected the poll to be a runaway win for Boozer - Dwill.
Overall Paul has out played Dwill but head to head Deron owns Paul. I say that's this is makes this match up too close to call.
Boozer and West is an easy call Boozer.
So the Utah duo is my pick.

I would take Paul and West because I think that Chris Paul will go down as the greatest Point Guard to ever play the game.

I don't understand that argument.

If Paul is better against 28 teams than Deron is, but Deron's better against Paul... how is that in any way, shape, or form, "too close to call"? They play head-to-head far LESS often than they play other teams. Wouldn't you want the point guard who's putting up better numbers overall? It's like saying, "Oh, well, Team X beat Team Y, so even though Team Y has a higher seed... Team X is better." The whole head-to-head argument is poorly constructed, misleading, and seems nothing more than a justification to pick Deron over Paul.

That said, back on topic...

I agree with others; the gap between Boozer and West is far greater than that between Paul and Williams.

On 29 teams, I think that Boozer/Paul would be the best combo, but I've always felt that Deron was more of a "Sloan Player" than was Paul--which is why, even though I think Paul's a better player, Deron was the right draft choice.
Hello ladies. Look at your posts. Now back to mine. Now back at your posts now back to MINE. Sadly, they aren't mine. But if your posts started using Optimismâ„¢, they could sound like mine. This post is now diamonds.

I'm on a horse.

I'll take Paul and West. Paul has been amazing this year and West is the most underrated player in the league.

But Deron>Paul head to head, so Deron > All.
