deron will probably outplay baron by the time the series is over....[censored] is [censored] good. might be better than chris paul from his draft class.

deron can just barrel in at will and shoots at a pretty good %. his shooting will only improve too.

i love deron but he's probably at most the 4th or 5th best PG of the teams remaining in the playoffs.

Nash, Kidd, Baron, Parker, then Deron. Interesting how every team with the exception of the Cavs have a good PG (depends if you classify Chauncey as one or not, I guess, and I dont think Hinrich is good, but he's solid)

How on earth could one not classify Chauncey as one. He's the definition of PG. He's not Marburry.

I expected UTAH's homecourt to be a much bigger advantage, but GS still kept coming and shutting them up every time the Jazz got rolling. I think they'll steal one there.

Deron reminds me a lot of Baron when he first came in the league. Both big physical PG's. Quick too.

Jerry Sloan, man what an underrated coach. The Jazz played GS right on the defensive end and forced GS to take tons of outside shots. If GS wants to advance, they need to start attacking the basket again.

if the warriors don't win game 2, this could be a sweep.

if they do, it certainly won't be?

weird comparison. those other guys are the best players on their respective teams, and deron is maybe the third or fourth best on his.

wtf here is how I rank the PGs (metric: I am trying to win a championship THIS year. I don't care about next year):

1) Nash
2) Billups
3) Baron
4) Kidd
5) Parker
6) Deron
7) Hinrich
8) Barbosa
9) Monta Ellis
10) Derek Fisher
11) Flip Murray
12) Jacque Vaughn
13) Eric Snow

Deron > Parker imho. The difference is on defense mainly, as offensively they are pretty much equals.

[Hornacek]

they're close, and that's just my opinion. i could def see them flip flopped. its tough putting baron up there, since he was out of his mind in the first round, but this injury kinda makes him a question mark
