He was already a solid point guard in the late 1990's and 2000's.

Do you think he's gonna become a more dominant point guard with the current NBA rules?

He's EASILY better than every PG not named: Chris Paul, Westbrook, or healthy D. Rose.

He was basically Kyrie before Kyrie. Mad handles, puts up big numbers but never really led his team anywhere. Very entertaining ASG type of player. I think he'd have a similar impact as Kyrie.

Wall, Curry, and Paker. Heck, Rondo (MUCH better defender and higher IQ in general) and Lillard are arguable as well.

With the league being far more pick and roll centric, he probably would've been better. Or at least more valuable in this setting if not better, then playing in a league where more success was derived from iso on the wings.

I guess, if you like point guards dribbling around for 20 seconds and then launching an ill-advised 20-footer.

He was talented though.

With the rules today? He will have way better stats, he will be considered the GOAT, he is like ROse and Chris Paul combined into one guy.

Better stats definitely. But still empty stats. Every team he played for improved as soon as he left :lol

He didn't really have any skills, he could get to the rim because of his natural born ability of speed and agility but he was a poor mans Derrick Rose. No shot, no handle, no brain or brawn.

He'd be eating Vaseline today.

One of the best players/worst teammate combos ever imho.
