FG% 3ptFG% FT%
Billups 40.9 38 87.8
Davis 40.9 32.9 66.7

I think if Billups shot as much as BD, he would score just as much, if not more.

So true Billups if he was on a team like the hornets he could put up ppg 24 apg8 rpg5 if he was the main focal point of the team

But, if you take any of them and put them on the Pistons, we are not the Eastern Conference Champs in my opinion.

Just to clear things up, I'd rather have Billups than all three, but as far as individual talent those three rank above Chauncey and there's nothing wrong with that.

I guess it depends on what your looking at. The only one you could argue to me would be BD.

All those point guards have different assets that they would bring to the team.

Davis would bring just an overall All-Star talent to the team, whereas Marbury would bring pure offence and Arenas a combination of the two. Chauncey Billups team on the other hand would cope (in my opinion) the worst if he was the focal point. That's impressive when considering some of the ship wrecks Marbury has been a part of.

At the end of the day Billups is a role player, one of the best role players of all time? At least of this era, and he can get by being a primary or secondary scoring option because our team doesn't have any designated franchise player to take those options away from.

Don't get me wrong, I love Chauncey and believe he is the best fit for our team but he is not the best player of those four. I would consider him the fourth best player (above Marbury) but he is, in fact, the best point guard of that same bunch.

Marbury is a piece of trash. The only thing he is good for is stats. If I were Larry Brown I would switch him to the 2. Thats the only way he can contribute to the team. Sure he averages 8 assist its because he has the ball in his hands the whole game.

We were rating them as Point Guards not players though. Leading a team and offense isn't a few of these guys primary skills.
