Best NBA Basketball Point Guards to Ever Play the Game

After reading the above title, Michael Jordan’s smooth bald head probably was the first to jump into your head, but let’s take a step back and see who else fits into this coveted listed of the best NBA point guards to ever play.

The below list of players was determined by comparing player stats, rule changes, and lots of time spent viewing YouTube highlights.

Top 5 Point Guards to Play in the NBA

1)      Michael Jordan – The man in whom all current superstars are measured against. If Michael Jordan does not top your list for being the best point guard to ever play the game, you must have been watching him play baseball.

2)      Kobe Bryant – Michael Jordan in training. Enough said.

3)      Lebron James – Despite what you think of his decision to sign with the Miami Heat,  you have to admit that Lebron is very talented and he can take over any game regardless of the jersey on his back, but it takes more than 1 player to win a Championship.

4)      Magic Johnson – Whether he actually had HIV or not, he was the best play-maker to ever play in the NBA.

5)      Steve Nash – The White Magic Johnson won two MVP awards in back to back seasons. If he wasn’t playing in Phoenix, he would have had a championship ring by now.

The above list of the top 5 greatest point guards to ever play in the NBA may be as controversial as George W. Bush’s “ A Hole is a Hole” view on bestiality, but such arguments arise when you have to rank players as talented as the ones above.
