    I voted Rose, but I have a feeling over the next decade, Wall will get traded or signed to a different team, maybe a contender, and just explode.

      Can we wait until Kyrie plays at least a quarter?

        John Wall, once he gets surrounded by decent players, and not idiots like Blatche, he will take off.

          I voted Wall, but I think Wall vs Rose is going to be a huge debate in the near future.

          Kyrie is a totally different player and not quite the level of Wall or Rose, unfortunately. I really hope I'm wrong though. Not to say he is a bad player, he does indeed have a good chance to be a top 5 PG, but I think his average athleticism vs the other two will never allow him to be the cream of the crop. He'll be like D-Will, a really good, maybe elite player but also has 2 or 3 PG's ahead of him.

            I think Wall had the best chance. Don't get me wrong Rose will be a great player and Kyrie will be good/great but Wall has a couple of things going good him.

            From what I've heard and seen Wall had seemingly grown an inch, inch and a half this past season which would possibly put him in a 6'5-6'6 height range which is quite scary when you consider his speed and athleticism. Couple that with his great floor vision and you've got a different animal. His jumpshot is suspect but one thing we've learned over the years is even a broken jumpshot can be fixed. Another thing I factored was Wall wasn't even completely healthy last season and posted 16.4/4.6/8.3 which are some pretty nice numbers when you consider who he was playing with and passing too. His defense is bad but most young players are bad defenders so it's only a matter of applying himself as he had the physical tools.

            I could see John Wall averaging 22/5/11 somewhere around there I'm being low on the rebounds but he could honestly post Dwayne Wade rebounds numbers or better if he users his height and athleticism to his advantage.

                I know that Derrick Rose is a hardworker and has the right attitude towards the game of Basketball, in terms of getting better.

                I don't really know much about Wall in those respects. He might have the tools to be better, but does he have the mindset? If anyone knows that part of his life/game, please share, I'd like to know.

                      Can't go against D. Rose. Never, ever.

                        Rose, without a doubt.

                        The other two will never win an MVP nor have the ability to.

                        Obviously it's tough to say that about Kyrie but you can already see physically he's not on Wall and Rose's level.

                          How exactly does Wall not have the ability to win an MVP???
                          He was more polished as a point guard than Rose was coming out of college and after he develops a Jumper like Rose did he has just as good a chance as anyone

                            If Wall can develop a consistent jumper, I'd watch out. Especially if he keeps growing, physically and mentally, he could eventually move to the 2 guard and flourish there. But that's just me, and I'm probably incorrect.

                              Wall will never be as an explosive a scorer as Rose.

                              Wall was a more polished pure point guard but Rose was the more polished basketball player. Obviously a better passer but Rose's ability to finish and get to the rim is second to none in the NBA as a PG. All Rondo had to do was develop a jumper too and we're still waiting on that.

                              Evans, Curry and Rose all had statistically better rookie seasons than Wall. I'm not saying he won't be good, but he won't be the superior of Rose.
