Nash is alright. but picking Gilbert Arenas over Steph is a slight.

Thought it was well known that Paul isn't a fan of Steph so it's not surprising.

Personally i prefer a John Stockton type over all of them. I don't need my point guard to lead the team in scoring or carry the offense on his back. I just want him to facilitate and play great perimeter d and have a good enough shot to keep the d honest. Steph has the shooting aspect down, best of all time easily. But he still a career 6 assist per night guy. That's a shooting guard to me, a true point should get close double digit assists.

i'd rather my point guard average 18 and 10, than 27 and 5.

bad way to look at it. Steph opens up scoring opportunities for his teammates through his off ball movement and the threat of his shooting. He does a lot to help his teammates succeed on the floor.

The Jazz needed Stockton to shoulder more scoring responsibility alongside Karl. This was one of their issues in the playoffs.

You expect that from all your scorers though. At point guard is different, his job in literally to orchestrate.

That is an arbitrary description for a point guard. His job is to help his team win. The Warriors structured one of the greatest offenses in NBA history around the threat of Curry's shooting. If Curry were a more ball dominant player you'd see him approach double digit assists as he did in 2014 under Mark Jackson, but that's not helping his team reach their potential.

doesn't align with "6 apg"

Reggie Miller isn't a point guard but still relevant to the topic - averaged around 3apg for his career. Never much of a focal point as a playmaker. But the Pacers structured their offense around the attention Miller received as a shooter and were regularly top ten in the league as a result. He did a ton to help players succeed.

Rep all facts

Also dude gets doubled hard off the pnr and dumps it to draymond who’s then running a 4 on 3 with the rim protecting center 30 feet away from the basket.
You can basically attribute at least half of drays assists to Steph :wow:

nikkas talkin bout Westbrook makes his teammates better because of his inflated ball dominant assist numbers :mjlol:
