Big difference when you have Durant on your team compared to the offensive help Rose has. Easier to game plan for the Bulls.

Aldridge is better then Griffin easily so far in their careers. Deron was a beast in Utah, but shouldn't be top 10 after his play the last 2 years.

Bulls had the #1 defense that year and held down the fort without Rose like 15-20 games I think

Thunder not winning without Russ Playoffs was evidence

Yeah let's see how far Chicago goes without Rose this year. OKC could still get a top 4 spot out West without Littlefoot. Chicago would be lottery bound or first round and done without Derrick Rose

If I was saying during the year he won MVP he wasn't top 5 you expect me to say it coming off a ripped up knee? I'm consistent with mine brehs

Wade's the better scorer, defender and rebounder and at least equal as a passer. Wade put up 22/5/5 in 4 mins less than normal. People gonna be talking about how Wade "came back" this year when all he'll be doing is playing his regular minutes.

CP3 is just the best pg in the game

at least you're consistent with your delusion...

there'd be a small amount of players who won the mvp that wouldn't be considered top 5 players that season.... rose certainly ain't one of those players

:rudy:

Dwill is not better than Westbrook and how is Rose still top 10 after an injury season

WHAT???? In damn near every aspect of the game besides athleticism. I'm just putting Rose in there assuming ESPN has him in their top 10. He wouldn't be in MY top 10

Rondo is the best Pure PG in the league. I'm pretty sure he lead all PG's in rebounds and assists. He had that double digit assist streak and lead all players in triple doubles. When he wants to score, he can....and that's with his lack of a jumpshot.

Also he's a solid defender and a far better leader than all other PG's. You can hear him talking through the TV basically the whole game. Only Chris Paul is debatable. But Rondo does so many little things on the court I don't think people realize it.

Plus Rondo lead his team further this year than any of these other PG's above him.

Russel Westbrook is not a pure PG. He's a top ten player though.
