Ranking of the 20 major point guards in history, 6 active players are on the list!

US media Hoops Hype updated the ranking of the 20 point guards in NBA history, and the controversy is still very controversial. First, the first one was given to Magic Johnson. Many people think Curry is the well-deserved first point guard.

Look at the top ten first (ranking sequence):

1-5: Magician, Curry, Robertson, West, Thomas

6-10: Paul, Stockton, Nash, Cousy, Kidd

There are two active members here, one is Curry, the other is Paul 6. There are great controversies. Some people think Curry should be the first, while others think Curry should not appear on this list. After all, there is no assist king, so how can he be considered a point guard? Paul is obviously a little taller, and some fans even said that Kidd should be ahead of Paul.

11-15th place: Payton, Westbrook, Lillard, Fraser, Archibald

16-20th place: Malawic, Parker, Irving, Doncic, Wilkens

There are many people on the list, Westbrook is 12th, Lillard is 13th, Irving is 18th, and Doncic is 19th.

In fact, Westbrook can understand it. After all, the triple-double king in history is the only one who has not yet settled for the contract next season. This is quite heartbreaking! In addition, Lillard and Irving should be considered a point guard, right? It also appeared on the list. It can only be said that basketball's definition of "point guard" is very vague. It not only looks at assists, but also comprehensiveness. If it were pure point guards, it would probably be difficult for the league to survive now.

For example, comparing Magicians with Curry, not looking at the championship, and a hard honor like FMVP. Magicians' regular season: 7th in total assists, 23rd in total steals, 88th in scoring.

And Curry's regular season: 29th in total assists, 43th in steals, and 24th in scoring.

So, if you compare this way, you can't compare it at all. If you only compare assists and steals, Stockton is far ahead, and Paul is the second one, so this ranking is still based on comprehensive data.

Anyway, I feel that no matter how I rank it, it is quite controversial, and everyone's rankings are different. However, Lillard is really the darling of the league and the media. His name will appear on any list. If you want to talk about honor, Lillard and Doncic should be the worst two. They may only take one shot at a time, one All-Star.

Doncic is still young at least and may win MVP and championship in the future, but Lillard's career is just like that. After the Trail Blazers contract expires, he will probably retire, but he is still a regular on major lists, so you can't reason. After watching Lillard and Harden, it was even more impossible to say... The media was simply two extremes to the two.

In fact, there is another controversy, that is, Rondo is not on the list, he should be a pure point guard, with two championships in hand, but he did not enter the top twenty.

What do you think of this list? Is it a big controversy?
