I'm not saying he is a bad defender, I'm simply saying at times he makes some stupid decsions.

Actually, I'm dead serious. The only guy from your list I might prefer to Parker is Arenas, but he's no PG, not with that assist TO ratio. As for the others, I don't have to think about it twice.

And Matt, Parker may choke in the playoffs, (He didn't in his first year, when he humiliated Payton), but he's still very young, and at least, he makes the playoffs, and stays there long enough to look bad.

He's not PG? He plays PG so he must be a PG. You are just holding him to the sterotypical PG. He doesn't have to be a Jason Kidd or Steve Nash to play PG.

I guess it's a matter of opinion. And yes, I'm very conservative in the PG department :D . I'm not saying he's not a great player, I just dont think of him as a floor general, but rather as someone to play off the ball.

Marbury would be in my top 5 of Scoring PG's though.


Couldn't say it better myself.

Iverson is a guard . I don't see him as a position , he's just a guard.

But what is a floor general? A guy who goes out there and executes his offense? That's excatly what Gilbert Arenas does. Just because he shoots first doesn't mean he isn't a floor general.

Funny how you say Marbury isn't a point guard because he shoots first and then you put Gilbert Arenas and Dwyane Wade at #3 on your list.
