Point Guards in NBA History

Steve Nash - May not be the greatest defensive player in NBA History, but he epitomizes the quintessential "get everybody involved" type of point guard. A perfect mixture of street ball and a controlled NBA game. He could always penetrate inside the paint and kick it out for a 3 pointer. I also love that he's not afraid to turn the ball over.

Oscar Robertson - One of the most complete players to ever lace them up. It's hard to think of any weaknesses when you talk about the Big O. The fact that he averaged a triple-double in an entire has to be one of the most amazing stats in not just basketball, but all of sports.

John Stockton - This was a tough call choosing Stockton over Johnson. But in the end, how can you go against the guy who is the all time leader in NBA assists and steals. A floor leader in every sense of the word.
