He's playing the best right now. What do yall think? Personally, I would say no, but he is right in that 2nd tier of PGs with that first tier being Paul, and Deron. He is right under them imo.

It's hard to put anyone above Paul or Deron IMO.

He is the best PG right now. Rondo, Westbrook, DWill, CP3 are all doing good to, but not as good as Rose.

My argument against Paul is he isn't scoring much. He's getting assists and steals.

DWill and CP3 are WAY better defenders than he is. I think Rose will end up being the best PG in the NBA eventually, though.

I still am saying that Rose is playing better than Paul right now. DWill would probably be ahead.

I still think so far this season, Rose is out performing Paul.

Right now guys not all time. Right now. I'd say you can only argue dwill or rose. Westbrook would of been considered a week ago.

No...

As a scoring PG? OK

As an overall PG? Nope.

He lacks the court vision that Rondo, Williams, and Paul have. Needless to say, those three all have better defense than Rose as well.

D-Rose has next..if he gets a SG next to him. Y'all gonna see. Dude has underrated vision. He has to score because Chicago needs him too. But dude has always preferred to watch his teammates get shine going back to Simeon.

1. Deron Williams
2. Derrick Rose
3. Rajon Rondo
4. Russell Westbrook
5. Chris Paul

So far this season... Derrick will be the best though when it's all said and done, he could be the best by the end of this season.

Rose's defense is holding him back.
He doesn't play bad D, but it can't be compared to Pauls or DWills.

So no, he is not the best PG in the NBA.

I don't think so. But I wish JJ Redick hadn't had his offer sheet matched by the Bulls so he could be starting alongside Rose in the backcourt...
