“Hello and welcome
to Inside the NBA with your host Ahmad Rashad and joining us tonight will
be Paul Sunderland of the Los Angeles Lakers broadcast booth. Paul why
don’t you start tonight?”
“Okay Ahmad,
thanks.”
“These
are my Top Ten Point Guards of the NBA.”
#10 Stephan
Marbury of the Suns.
“Now Ahmad
this guy ain’t as good as Kobe or Tracy, but he averages about 17 or 18
points a game and averages around 10 assists per game. I think Marbury
could make it down to the top 5 if he steps it up a little and takes his
team to the playoffs. He had 31 points and 11 assists in the win over the
Timberwolves.”
#9 Gilbert
Arenas of the Warriors.
“Wow,
what a player Gilbert Arenas is! He averages around 22 points per game
and he is only 20! The Warriors got him after his first year in college.
The boy really has some skills. He had 24 points in Philly last night.”
#8 Andre
Miller of the Clippers.
“Miller
has some skills just like Arenas does. He can score dribble and pass. I
would like to see him be a little bit more controlled when it comes to
fouls. He has gotten about 32 technicals this season over fouls. He had
14 points and 6 assists and 13 rebounds against the Lakers on Friday.”
#7 Michael
Jordan of the Wizards.
“Yes,
this one is good; Jordan has really stepped up to this challenge, KNEES.
He has been hurt on the same knee about 4 times and he is 40 years old
and is still playing! It is spectacular! He is such a good player and averages
about 18 points a game. That is why I chose him.”
#6 Jason
Kidd of the Nets.
“Jason
has played pretty well this season. He has not been the best like he was
last year but he has played pretty well to me. He had 31 points in the
win over the Cavaliers, Sunday.”
#5 Paul
Pierce of the Celtics.
“Paul
Pierce has had a great season so far and he has been one of those players
that I have been watching. He averages about 25 points a game and about
6 rebounds. He had 47 points in the LOSS to the Warriors.”
#4 Baron
Davis of the Hornets.
“Davis
has had a fairly good season this year and has averaged about 19 points
a game. He also is about 8th in the league in assists with 6.5 and about
3.4 rebounds a game. I think he is playing very well.”
#3 Allen
Iverson of the 76er’s.
“Iverson
for three….. GOT IT!!! He has been outstanding from outside the ark this
season shooting 51.3% and averages 26 points per game. His three point
shooting is the best in the league. He has really learned to pass the ball
more than he has in his whole career! He has really stepped it up a lot!”
#2 Tracy
Mcgrady of the Magic.
“ Wowser!
That sure was a dunk by T-Mac. He has thrown it off the backboard and back
to himself for the dunk I like to call…….. the T-Mac dunk!! He is on my
list for the All Star Game. He averages about 31 points a game and 7 rebounds
a game, but… he is not as good as #1.”
#1 Kobe
Bryant of the Lakers.
“Can he
make it 13…… YES,YES,YES!!!! Kobe Bryant has just broken the record for
most three pointers in one game………. 13!! Kobe has had 9 straight games
with 40 points or more. He also
shoots 40.3% from the court. He gets 7 rebounds a game and he averages
about 5.6 assists per game. This is why I chose him for the #1 spot in
my Top Ten Point Guards of the NBA.“
“Those are my Top Ten Point Guards
in the NBA.”
