1.) Chris Paul | New Orleans Hornets | 2 yrs $8.19 million
No point guard runs a team better or means more to his team's success than Nash.

Could have been the best point guard in NBA history if he had a deadly jumper.

Another two years and he'll be the best point guard in the NBA.

4.) Steve Nash | Phoenix Suns | 3 yrs $36.75 million

5.) Baron Davis | Golden State Warriors | 2 yrs $33.62 million

Most entertaining PG off the court. Great swag on the court.

He may end up being a "if only he hadn't been injured" type of player.

7.) Chauncey Billups | Detroit Pistons | 5 yrs $60 million

Speaking of, what if he wasn't injured every year?

8.) Jose Calderon | Toronto Raptors | 1 yr $2.47 million

Most overrated point guard. Hasn't had more than 2 good seasons.

9.) Rajon Rondo | Boston Celtics | 3 yrs $5.64 million

Fewer PGs that are better passers....in league history.

11.) Jason Kidd | Dallas Mavericks | 2 yrs $41.1 million

He might have a drug problem.

12.) Devin Harris | New Jersey Nets | 1 yr $3.99 million

Best defensive point guard in all of basketball. Can lock down Dwyane Wade anytime.

13.)Mike Bibby | Atlanta Hawks | 2 yrs $28 million

The ultimate locker room guy. He made the right decision by playing in a city that could accomodate his daughter's needs.

14.) T.J. Ford | Toronto Raptors | 4 yrs $33 million

This guy is scary good already and is going to be a fantastic point guard.

15.) Monta Ellis | Golden State Warriors | 1 yr $770kSteve Francis | Houston Rockets | 1 yr $3 million

5 years ago, if you had told me that Steve Francis couldn't find playing time and/or a job, I'd have laughed in your face.

16.) Maurice Williams | Milwaukee Bucks | 6 yrs, $52 million

Emerged that last few years as a good point guard that is tough to guard.

17.) Derek Fisher | Los Angeles Lakers | 3 yrs $18 millionSam Cassell | Los Angeles Clippers | 1 yr $6.15 million

His body has failed him, but he's still the guy I'd want running my team in the 4th quarter.

18.) Kyle Lowry | Memphis Grizzlies | 3 yrs $4.28 million

Needs a bounce back season in a big way to earn a big contract extension.

19.) Raymond Felton | Charlotte Bobcats | 2 yrs $7.42 million

Should be the starter in Toronto.

20.) Kirk Hinrich | Chicago Bulls | 5 yrs $47.5 millionJason Terry | Dallas Mavericks | 5 yrs $49.31 million

His contract is more of a killer than he is. Not the scorer he used to be.

21.) Beno Udrih | Sacramento Kings | 1 yr. $1.74 million

Had a tough season last year but should have more weapons to utilize this year.

22.) Delonte West | Cleveland Cavaliers | 1 yr $1.89 million

Is a fine point guard but shouldn't be ahead of Calderon.

23.) Derrick Rose | Chicago Bulls | 1 yr $1.89 million

What is that thing on his lip? Did he always have that or did he pick it up in college?

24.) Antonio Daniels | Washington Wizards | 3 yrs $18.6 million

Has a lot of competition now for the starting job in Portland.

25.) Rafer Alston | Houston Rockets | 3 yrs $14.7 million

Scott Skiles has a hard time keeping him off the court.

26.) Jameer Nelson | Orlando Magic | 1 yr $1.96 million

Needs to learn how to create offense for other people.

27.) Rodney Stuckey | Detroit Pistons | 4 yrs $7.83 million

This is a guy with all the talent in the world but just doesn't care about sacrificing his own wants and needs for his team.

28.) Jamaal Tinsley | indiana Pacers | 4 yrs $27.75 million

Still has a lot of basketball maturing to do but will be a very good point guard for years to come.

29.) Jarrett Jack | Portland Trailblazers | 2 yrs $3.22 million

His knees have betrayed him, but he can still run a team and a fastbreak.

30.) Russell Westbrook | Oklahoma City Thunder |

Will have his first year as the full-time point guard, and should be able to create a lot of offense.

31.) Luke Ridnour | Seattle Supersonics | 3 yrs $19.5 million

The most NBA ready point guard in his draft class and will challenge for the starting job by mid-season.

32.) Chucky Atkins | Denver Nuggets | 2 yrs. $6.6 million

Luke doesn't play much defense, but he can shoot the lights out and is one of the flashiest passers in the game.

33.) Stephon Marbury | New York Knicks | 2 yrs $42.04 million

Probably the best rebounding point guard besides Jason Kidd. Has health issues constantly and will probably never play a complete season.

34.) Earl Watson | Seattle Supersonics | 3 yrs $18.6 million

A very underrated backup point guard who has the speed and composure to cause lots of matchup problems.

35.) Jerryd Bayless | Portland Trailblazers |

Was TERRIBLE for the Wolves last year after having his breakout year in Toronto. Should be much better back in Houston this year.

36.) Randy Foye | Minnesota Timberwolves | 3 yrs $9.02 million

Is a great floor general that doesn't get frazzled. Will be a starter for years.

37.) Mike Conley | Memphis Grizzlies | 4 yrs $15.79 million

He's just about ready to take over for Jason Kidd, as soon as Kidd is ready to relinquish it.

38.) Daniel Gibson | Cleveland Cavaliers | 1 yr $687k

He's looking like a backup now with the way Conley has played so far in Summer League.

39.) Mario Chalmers | Miami Heat |

A streetball legend that hasn't quite been able to adjust to dominate in the NBA. He's a bad shooter but a great playmaker.

40.) Sebastian Telfair | Minnesota Timberwolves | 1 yr $2.56 million

Is high on everyone's list since his breakout playoff season. But I have to ask, why didn't he show this until then? Is it THAT hard to beat out Damon Jones and Eric Snow?

41.) Chris Duhon | Chicago Bulls | 1 yr $3.25 million

One of the best point guard defenders and distributors in the league.

42.) Jordan Farmar | Los Angeles Lakers | 3 yrs $6.91 million

He was a bust last year after working so hard to get his big contract.

43.) Mike James | New Orleans Hornets | 3 yrs $18.14 million

Good shooter, good defender but not a great point guard. Great backup though.

44.) Bobby Jackson | Houston Rockets | 2 yrs $11.76 millionMarko Jaric | Minnesota Timberwolves | 4 yrs $27.35 million

Kevin McHale thought that Sam Cassell and a first round pick was a fair trade for this guy. Wolves fans would probably disagree.

45.) Brevin Knight | Los Angeles Clippers | 2 yrs. $4 million

Dumbest question that this guy hears all the time, "Is it hard adjusting to players this big in the NBA?" He's been this tall for a long time. I'm sure it's just the same as it's always been for him.

46.) Marcus Williams | New Jersey Nets | 3 yrs $4.52 million Shaun Livingston | Los Angeles Clippers | 1 yr $4.4 million

He has so much potential but his horrid knee injury will probably ruin his career.

47.) Eddie House | Boston Celtics |

Talkhoops.net writer, Cory Elfrink, is big on this guy as possibly the best point guard in this draft. I disagree, but so far in Summer League, he's proven Cory right and me wrong.

48.) Acie Law IV | Atlanta Hawks | 4 yrs $9.15 million

One of the best 4th quarter shooters from outside in the NBA.

49.) Luther Head | Houston Rockets | 2 yrs $3.08 millionDamon Stoudamire | San Antonio Spurs | 2 yrs $9 million

When he isn't getting pulled over for speeding and weed or when he isn't getting stopped in an airport for trying to smuggle weed onto a plane, he makes pretty good decisions.

50.) Sasha Vujacic | Los Angeles Lakers | 1 yr $1.75 millionNate Robinson | New York Knicks | 2 yrs $3.29 million

Just a terribly overrated player that will never be more than a backup on a bad team.

51.) Jannero Pargo | New Orleans Hornets | 2 yrs. $4 million

Gut check time for Bassy. He needs to get his life together and get stronger on the court to make a comeback.

52.) Keyon Dooling | Orlando Magic | 1 yr $3.59 million

Very valuable backup that deserves a long term contract.

53.) Marcus Banks | Miami Heat | 4 yrs $17.28 million

One of the best on-ball defenders in the league. Hard to get past him.

54.) Steve Blake | Portland Trailblazers | 3 yrsCarlos Arroyo | Orlando Magic | 1 yr $4 million

The Puerto Rican Player has fallen out of grace in Orlando and will probably bolt for a chance at more playing time next summer.

55.) D.J. Augustin | Charlotte Bobcats | 4 yrs

Solid defender and a decent scorer at the backup point guard position.

56.) Javaris Crittenton | Memphis Grizzlies | 4 yrs $6.42 million

My pick to be the best point guard out of this draft class. In 3 years, people will wonder how he fell to 30.

57.) Ramon Sessions | Milwaukee Bucks | Un-signed

He's a decent point guard that is lost in Phoenix's system. Hard to live up to the standard that Nash sets on the court.

58.) Ronnie Price | Utah Jazz | 2 yrs.

Looks like he'll be the backup once Phil completely trusts Javaris.

59.) Roger Mason | San Antonio Spurs | Smush Parker | Miami Heat | 2 yrs. $4.6 million

I'm shocked he lasted this long in the league. Go play in Europe, William.

60.) Lindsey Hunter | Detroit Pistons | 1 yr $2.25 millionTyronn Lue | Sacramento Kings | 1 yr $3.5 million

He may look like a woman, but he plays like an NBA player. His defense is overrated but he's an underrated floor general.

61.) Anthony Johnson | Sacramento Kings | 1 yr $2.86 millionGabe Pruitt | Boston Celtics | 3 yrs.

He fell out of the first round but that just means he'll get a big contract before most guys in his draft class.

62.) Sergio Rodriguez | Portland Trailblazers | 3 yrs $3.92 million

The Glove is looking to retire but could still be a decent backup somewhere.

63.) Petteri Koponen | Portland Trailblazers | 4 yrs $4.9 million Mardy Collins | New York Knicks | 3 yrs $3.73 million

What happens when you start regressing as a NBA player before your second season? It gives you the bust stamp.

64.) Jacque Vaughn | San Antonio Spurs | 2 yrs $2.5 million

One of the best garbage time, fourth quarter scorers in the league.

65.) Bobby Brown | Sacramento Kings |

Spanish Chocolate is the new Jason Williams in this league. He's fun to watch whipping passes all over the court.

66.) Aaron Brooks | Houston Rockets | 4 yrs $5.15 million

Possibly the most overpaid player in the whole league. Practically worthless.

67.) Travis Diener | Indiana Pacers | 3 yrs. $4.86 million

Got himself a ring as a backup to Le Petit Point last season.

68.) Earl Boykins | Charlotte Bobcats |

Had one of the best dunks of last year on Carlos Boozer which shows his athleticism.

69.) Jeff McInnis | Charlotte Bobcats | 1 yr. $1.2 million Dee Brown | Free Agent | Un-signed

Pretty decent threat from deep but doesn't do much else all that well.

70.) Anthony Carter | Denver Nuggets | 1 yr $1.1 millionTaurean Green | Denver Nuggets | 1 yr $427k

The new Dee Brown. Should be dangerous spreading the floor for Portland's bigs.

71.) Jason Hart | Utah Jazz | 2 yrs.

His claim to fame is a 50 point game in Summer League years ago.

72.) Goran Dragic | Phoenix Suns |

Very athletic but he's really more of an undersized shooting guard that can't shoot.

73.) Anthony Roberson | New York Knicks |

Popovich can't wait to get rid of this guy. He's fallen out of favor in San Antonio.

74.) Speedy Claxton | Atlanta Hawks | 3 yrs $17.27 million Damon Jones | Cleveland Cavaliers | 2 yrs $8.63 million

The loudest, worst dressing point guard in the league. He talks alot better than he shoots.

75.) Sarunas Jasikevicius | Free Agents | 1 yr $4 million

The best cheerleader in all of the NBA. Even better than Mark Madsen.

76.) Dan Dickau | Los Angeles Clippers | 1 yr $2.8 million

Needs to find what made him so popular in New Orleans.

77.) Aaron Brooks | Houston Rockets | 4 yrs $5.15 million

A surprise first round pick that has lit up the Summer League.

78.) Daniel Ewing | Free Agent |

Most famous moment is not covering Raja Bell in the playoffs.

79.) Orien Greene | Free Agent | 1 yr $770k

Will be fighting for a backup job with the Pacers this season.

80.) Darrell Armstrong | New Jersey Nets |

Great locker room guy and constant energy off the bench.

81.) Eric Snow | Cleveland Cavaliers | 2 yrs $14.01 million

Still a solid defender but gives you negative production on the offensive end.

82.) John Lucas III | Free Agent | 2 yrs $1.59 million

Has worked extremely hard to become a backup option in the league.

83.) Kevin Ollie | Philadelphia 76ers |1 yr $3.44 million

Has the best or at least the most entertaining mustache in the league.

84.) Travis Diener | Indiana Pacers | 3 yrs. $4.86 million

Great shooter that needs more athleticism to stick around.

85.) Jason Hart | Utah Jazz | 2 yrs.

Got a raw deal in Sacramento but is actually a solid backup.

86.) Vassilis Spanoulis | Free Agent | 2 yrs $4.03 million

Doesn't want to play in the NBA anymore and will return to Greece. Popovich could get him to come back.

87.) Bob Sura | Houston Rockets | 1 yr $3.84 million

He's just an expiring contract now after lots of injuries.

88.) Zabian Dowdell | Free Agent |

He'll find a job in the D-League and then the NBA after not being drafted.

89.) Sasha Vujacic | Los Angeles Lakers | 1 yr $1.75 million

He's the Slava Medvedenko of point guards.

90.) Anthony Carter | Denver Nuggets | 1 yr $1.1 million

The best 3rd point guard you can find.

91.) Andre Barrett | Chicago Bulls |

High flyer that will bounce between the NBA and D-League for a long time.

92.) Darrick Martin | Toronto Raptors |

Claims to have ice water in his veins. I'll be shocked if he has a monthly NBA contract this year.

93.) Lynn Greer | Free Agent | 1 yr $770k

Good scorer off the bench that will need to learn how to be a better floor general.

94.) Ramon Sessions | Milwaukee Bucks | Un-signed

Very quick point guard that can lead a team well. He'll need a jump shot soon.

95.) Keith McLeod | Free Agent |

This guy isn't very quick, athletic, or NBA skills ready but he keeps hanging around this league.

96.) Mike Wilks | Free Agent |

Can't shoot at all. Doesn't even make jumpers in shoot arounds.

97.) Royal Ivey | Milwaukee Bucks |

Very athletic point guard that finds a way to stick with a team, even if it is the Hawks.

98.) Jared Jordan | Free Agent | Un-signed

Some say the next Steve Nash. Others think he won't last long in the league. It's probably somewhere in between.

99.) Jose Juan Barea | Dallas Mavericks | 1 yr. $687k

Summer League legend after this week. Has to make the Mavs now.

100.) Will Blalock | Free Agent |

Has shooting and turnover issues, but other than that, decent player.

101.) Zoran Planninic | Free Agent |

He showed so much promise a couple of seasons ago. Now he'll probably go back to Europe.

102.) Junior Harrington | Free Agent |

His claim to fame is getting dunked on by Kobe Bryant multiple times.

103.) Will Conroy | Los Angeles Clippers | 1 yr $687k

He's a better scoring version of Anthony Johnson.

104.) Mustafa Shakur | Free Agent | Un-signed

Big, athletic point guard that has never realized his huge potential out of high school.

105.) Chris Quinn | Miami Heat |

Shined in minutes last season with the Heat as he filled in for all of the Heat's guard injuries.

106.) Von Wafer | Portland Trailblazers | 1 yr $770k

Knows how to score but doesn't know how to share the ball.

107.) Roko Ukic | Toronto Raptors | Un-signed

It wouldn't be nice to deem him the next Sasha Vujacic so I'll take a wait and see approach.

108.) Cedric Bozeman | Free Agent |

He used to be a top high school prospect as a big point guard going to UCLA. Now he's a guy that can't score but plays lockdown defense.

109.) Randy Livingston | Free Agent |

Journeyman that will not give up on a NBA career.

110.) Brian Chase | Free Agent |

Tenacious defender and penetrator but is pretty undersized.

111.) Anthony Roberson | Free Agent |

Fantastic shooter and scorer but needs to learn how to run the offense.

112.) Robert Hite | Free Agent |

Pretty much the same person as Chris Quinn.

113.) Shammond Williams | Free Agent |

How is this guy still around? Was God Shammgod not available?

114.) Mateen Cleaves | Free Agent |

I know I can take this guy one on one. Someone set this up.
