Well he certainly has the size, speed, athleticism, skill set and work ethic to be one of the best pg's in the league...if not the best. Definitely not a stretch to have Wall in the conversation.

Until he plays a NBA game yes it is a stretch. Wish him well he's been exciting to watch as a college player.

Really? Because I could tell Durant was going to be great in the NBA before he played an NBA game.

Oh well, my opinion is that John Wall can be the best pg in the NBA 5 years from now. Or at the very least, in the talks about it.

Kyrie Irving.

We can all project til we are blue in the face ,but at the end of the day there is no way we can be sure until a player goes out and prove it. I for one dont think he will be as great as expected ,maybe even borderline bust.

I think it really depends on what you mean by saying the best
If the best pg is the guy who wins the most championships, I think it will be Rose
If the best pg is the guy with the best stats I think its Wall

...and one guy that i think will be a future allstar that no ones mentioned is Goran Dragic

The league has shifted to focus on the point guard position and they have been taking advantage (and putting up the numbers to back it up), but i don't think we REALLY have 20 all-star point guard studs like it seems we do.

I still think D-Will, CP3, and Nash are far and above the best point guards in the NBA, even if some guys are close statistically.

Rondo is horrendous in a half court set. If he's not fast breaking and playing park style, he's ineffective. It's amazing how people consider him an elite point guard when he's completely useless in half court offense. You don't even need to guard him, lol. He gets boards because it's hard to box him out when you're not defending him..besides, Boston isn't a good rebounding team anyway so he's able to snatch them.

Put it this way, if Dwill was on Boston, the Lakers would be in trouble and would have to focus a lot of their D on him. If you imagine them in different scenarios, I think you have to take into consideration their weaknesses. Rondo would be completely ineffective if he was on the Lakers triangle offense. Can't spot up, can't make free throws. Rose wouldn't have the green light every single possession either and doesn't have the IQ of a dwill or nash.
