It's a toss up between Williams and Paul.

Wow, Underrate Billups/Kidd much?

Especially considering they are proven PGs and play 2-way basketball at extremely high levels.

Kidd has always been really overrated in my eyes, and I think Nash and Billups are fairly close but I give Nash the edge.

Kidd lead his team to two finals appearances and is one of the all time leader in assists, didn't he also have 15 assists at halftime at the last Suns-Mavericks game?

Billups lead his team to the finals in 2004 and won a championship, when he was traded to the Nuggets he took that team to the WCF and the Pistons fell apart.

Billups plays both ends of the court as a true and smart leader, and Kidd is not nearly the offensive threat that the other elite PGs are.

Paul/DWill
Billups
Nash
Kidd

the end.

Another site, non-Suns related, had a "who are the Top 5 PGs" poll and Nash was consistently in the mix.
He;s still very highly regarded around the league, with good reason

Yeah, this poll asks is Nash still one of the NBA's elite point guards. 63% said yes.

Kidd led his tea to two finals appearances in a terribly weak Eastern conference. He epically failed in the playoffs when he was with US, in the Western Conference.

Billups is really, really good, but I value Nash just a bit higher.

Ok you said the east was weak than but when Kidd was with the Suns the west was much stronger. The Lakers had a young Shaq and Kobe, Spurs had a young Duncan, Jazz were still good, Kings were good, Mavericks were good, etc...
