My list bruh. In the grand scheme of things what separates him from Russ Paul and Payton and team success. He's been in the league for nearly a decade so longevity isn't the problem. He has the individual accolades like they do minus a scoring or assist title so the raw numbers ain't it. I can't knock those who don't have him in the top 10 but he's on MY personal list.
Nah fukk yo list bruh,it’s no longer personal when you put it out in the open,Dame a dawg but he ain’t no top 10 PG of all time yet. Hell naw

Those are impressive accolades no doubt.

But it doesn't address any of my criticisms of him.


No, because he doesn't do what great PGs do, which is make his teammates better and translate that into winning.

Statistically he's a monster. But he's not a great shooter, doesn't have high IQ (another requirement to be a good PG), and despite his athleticism he's not a great defender.

You can criticize any player,but when you break down the accolades and stats he is a top 10 PG easily

Durant paul George Oladipo have all had some of their best seasons with him odd take.

You can just look at a list like this:
Magic
Isiah
Steph
Russ
Oscar
Nash
West
Kidd
CP3
Stockton

and see there's a clear divide in "winning" going on. The bottom half of tier 1 point guards had clear ceilings on how far they were taking teams in the playoffs. What he usually does with another elite player (first round with PG and Harden, second/third round with KD) would be in line with dudes like CP3 and Nash.

Rings shouldn't be a determinant outside of the top 3-4 on that list IMO. Magic was an "alpha" (hate that term) for some of his, Steph was for only one, Isiah got two, I think thats it.

Russ got everything needed to be labeled a top 6-10 PG of all time.
