Will John Wall be the Best PG ever?
He might not get a consistent spot up when he 1st gets into the League and everyone is in their prime, he might get it when CP3 and Deron Williams are over the hill. I dont think he will get one immediately, but IF he does you and bank that he will be an all-nba performer.
I feel like he is vastly overrated by people on here. Knicksboy you said he would takeover along with Rose and Jennings after CP3 and Dwill are over the hill, you do realize that he is only 2 years younger than both those point guards. People say "if he had a jumpshot" he doesn't have a jumpshot and it doesn't appear that he will develop one in the near future. I don't think he is bad, but I just don't see him as a top tier point guard in the NBA.
i thinks its pointless to dispute who or anybody will be the greatest players at all in any position at any given time period with every one lapping over having impact on the next you are going to have your hallmark players who have a tremendous impact on the game and about every ten years you truly see a revolutionary player ala wilt kareem shaq elgin baylor oscar robertson Julius Irving Michael Jordan and Lebron James basketball gets better every year because you have athletes competing to be the best player possible and the ones with the most determination best attitude always rise to the top. Leaving the "talented players" in thier wake and becoming the legends that we all love to watch in the present and in the past. Saying john wall will be the greatest pg ever is simply lame when the kid hasnt accomplished anything in regards to a college career or professional level.
I understand where you are coming from and that you can be at at totally different place in your career at 32 than at 30, but I guess I don't see Rondo as one of these new age point guards like Jennings, Rose and Wall. I would put him with the Paul, Williams, Felton class, not in terms of talent, but in terms of age.
Is he really a true 6'4? If so, he seems incredibly athletic for a guy with his size (great wing span too). If he is willing to work hard and not get derailed by all the bs, then it is definitely possible for him to become an all time great. Many of these kids have the talent, but will they put the time in to do so.
Best PG ever? No way. I can't see him being as good as Isiah or John Stockton. Both of these guys had better all around games than Wall does. I also can't see him being as good as Chris Paul, Derron Williams, Rondo, or Rose because they are more pass first point guards. I can see him being a being Tony Parker type player, who also is not a great shooter but can score a lot driving to the basket.
not another 6'9" pg again?
well, sun yue, but he's no magic johnson.
Magic was great, and no way wall will be better than him
