I'm sure we all know stats aren't everything, but they do tell a huge part of the story. John Wall is leading the league in APG, averaging just a little above 10. Rose? He's 23rd. Averaging just 4.8. That means Wall is dishing out at least 5 more assists than Rose is. That's a lot. Both guys are averaging the same number of points, but Wall's FG% is much higher. So let me ask you this... How exactly is Derrick Rose a better player than John Wall?

    I know that Rose isn't 100% because of his injuries, but if we're talking about who's the better player RIGHT NOW, then it's clearly Wall.

    it'll even out til the end of the year and i'll estimate he'll be around 10/9/7.

    If we're talking this season, Jeff Teague has been much better than Rondo, (or Rose for that matter).

    Wall is also a much better defensive player at this point.

    in no particular order:

    Curry
    Westbrook

    (and maybe Lillard)
    IM A BIG ROSE FAN.......BUT ROSE IS NOT A TOP FIVE PG.

    ill give him top 8

    same goes for westbrook...i just cant wrap my mind around them bring true pgs....because they still havent showed me true pg attributes..more like glorified monta ellises playing the point.

    top 5 in my humble opinion is

    rondo
    cp3
    curry
    lillard
    tony parker/mike conley/john wall

    Which has nothing to do with the argument you initially posed.

    Rondo and Westbrook, definitely are Playoff performers. But who's that other guy?

    Teague is probably an all star this year, but he is kind of up and down. He has stretches of great play followed by periods to where he seems disinterested in the game.
