ChewyParticipantdoes Team Early 2K win the PG match up. We are living in a golden age of PG power! Nash is the most overrated MVP in history and Curry is a better version of Nash.
Sure it is hard to argue against AI, but Westbrook has gone video game mode this season.
New Era easily wins PG matchup.

Sewok15ParticipantAlso AI was no longer a PG by the early 2000’s…Eric Snow would just bring up the ball and pass it to him but he was considered a SG.

Ahkasi ClayParticipantGive me the current Sg’s and SF’S (LeBron alone should win this)

mgreener_34ParticipantI agree with the SF, but come on…Kobe, Manu, Vince, Pierce, Allen, and TMac are better in a vacume than any of the modern SG’s. Wade, easily the best SG since that time, I don’t think anyone would clearly state is better than Kobe Bryant? And as much as I love James Harden, I think his talent level is on the same level as Tracy McGrady’s, and they’ve had earily similar careers thus far. Guys like Pierce, Manu, and Allen were just winners, and so many guys on the current era list wouldn’t be championship players if it was for these guys, in and out of their prime they still had the goods.

Ahkasi ClayParticipantI feel weird about Wade being included with the New Era players.

jjj10manParticipantUm.. strong disagreements with PGs. This is by far the best era ever for PGs. You named Iverson, Nash, and Kidd as 2000s PGs. Curry, Harden Westbrook, and CP3 are better than all of them. Westbrook is by far the most athletic ever, Curry is one of the best all time too. Curry, Harden, CP3, and Westbrook are all already Hall of Famers too, assuming Harden wins the MVP this year.
