US media reorders the 20-point guards in history: Westbrook ranked 12th, Paul won the championship without the championship and Curry is second!

On July 24, as the offseason deepened, the operation of the league teams is getting less and less. In this case, in order to maintain attention, the US media will make some rankings. Today, TA made a strength list and caused quite a lot of controversy. I posted an article about this strength list. Friends who are interested can go and take a look. In addition, today the US media HoopsHype reordered the top 20 stars in history. Here we mainly talk about the top ten.

10th Jason Kidd

Kidd's strength has always been underestimated. He is the third in the steal and assist list in the history, and has led the team to the finals twice. At the end of his career, Zunno won a championship. Kidd is one of the most versatile point guards in history. I think the main reason why he is only ranked tenth is that his scoring data is not good enough. Now, the measurement of backcourt players no longer only considers organizational ability and honors like before.

Ninth Bob Cousey

, this person is known as the originator of point guards. Although his era is long, the great honor is here. He led the team to win 6 championships with Bill Russell. He is the second player in history to win the regular season MVP. He pioneered the traditional point guard style and is also an epoch-making figure. So he entered this list. Cousey was selected into the Best Team 10 times and won the league assist king 8 times. If it weren't for the honor in the 1960s, his ranking would be higher.

The eighth Nash

Nash may find it unreasonable for many fans to rank in this position. After all, he has not proved himself in the playoffs. He has never led the team to the finals with an absolute core. However, Nash's influence is still very outstanding. He is the first foreign player in history to win the MVP again. Nash also created a running and bombing system. In the 2000s, his deterrence of ball holding is comparable to Curry. He has made 180 three shots in many seasons.

Seventh Stockton

One of the best traditional point guards in history. He is the king of total assists and steals in history. He has won the king of league assists nine times. Stockton rarely missed games in his career. He has also led the team in his career and has never missed the playoffs. This is amazing. Stockton has led the Jazz to the finals twice, but when he met Jordan, he ended up with a championship-free end. The reason why he did not enter the top five is probably the same as Kidd, because of his personal offensive ability.

Sixth Paul

Handy Gun has no championship in his career. He is second only to Stockton's total assists and steals. If it is normal, a traditional point guard is comparable to assists and steals. It seems that Paul should rank behind Stockton, but Paul's personal offensive ability is better. He is one of the most versatile point guards in history. He has won the steals 6 times and was selected into the Best Defense Team for 9 times.

The Fifth Smiling Assassin

The Smiling Assassin is actually Paul's template, and he is also Irving's template, a point guard who is both attacking and passing. Before Bird and Magic Laomai and Jordan grew up, the Smiling Assassin led the team to dominate the league. He led the Pistons to the Finals for three consecutive years and won two championships. Although they were questioning the Bad Boys Legion at the time, no one questioned the Smiling Assassin's personal abilities. He has been selected into the All-Star 12 times.

Fourth Jerry West

West is sometimes considered a point guard and sometimes a point guard. He is actually one of the best ball-holding cores in history. He can serve as the No. 1 position and the No. 2 position. West is the only player in history to win the FMVP. His scoring ability is so excellent. He has performed 40+ per game in a series of games. He is also the top scorer in the finals. He has led the team to the finals 9 times and won one championship.

The third Oscar Robertson

Big O is worthy of this position in both his personal ability and his contribution to the league. He is the first point guard in history to average triple-double per game, and he has averaged 30+ per game in six seasons and won a regular season MVP. His greatest contribution is to strive for racial equality for black players. It is precisely because many black stars are always unable to avoid it when discussing the best in history. He has made great contributions to this sport.

Second Curry still failed to surpass the Magician, which is understandable. After all, Magicians still have the advantage in terms of great honors. Curry has 2 regular season MVPs, and he is the only unanimous MVP in history. He has led the team to win 4 championships with the first core and has an FMVP trophy. Curry is the strongest scorer in history. He has pushed the league to the era of small ball. After Curry retires, he may shake the Magician's position, right?

The First Magician

The Magician's hard honors discouraged many players. He has 5 championships, 3 finals MVPs, and 3 regular season MVPs. His personal honors are the most among all point guards. With these honors, he has also become the top five stars in history, and he has a highest assists per game in his career. If the Magician is not AIDS, he may be the first person in history.

11-20 are: Gary Payton, Westbrook, Lillard, Ferrazier, Archibald, Malawich, Parker, Irving, Doncic and Lanny Wilkens. Speaking of matching, what do you want to say about this ranking?
