We have some top names like Steph, Luka, Shae, Dame, Trae Young, Ja etc. I assume by now we are all aware Booker is having a phenomenal start to this season, cementing himself as a super star in this league. Is that enough to crack the top 3 point guards?

Bad timing on this post.

He just went 2/12 with 3 assists

What makes you think this lol

The 27.3 5.4 8.5 on 60% ts guy had one bad game therefore he's not a top player

Let's not count the game against him where he rolled his ankle twice, was limping all game long and could barely play and was still sent out there by the coaching staff.

He has shown this season that he's a decent enough playmaker, obviously not a top 5-10 playmaker, but comfortably top 20.

5 assists, idk if the NBA reviews the footage and added some or if you misread, but rn the official boxscore says 5 in the app

If we were going pg I'd prob have him behind curry luka haliburton and close with fox. So fourth or fifth

Booker is a really good passer, he’s not a playmaker like half the names you listed so it’s hard to say he’s top 10 maybe top 20

True, Harden is one of the best passers the league has ever seen, hardly one of the best play makers.

[–] Ordinary-Fish-9791@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Harden is one of the best playmakers in the league lol. How many guys in the league are as good as him at creating offense?

[–] LogDogan4@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You have that backwards. Especially wrt Houston Harden.

[–] HearingGlobal6485@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

he has had the best apg of his career so far this year but the sample size is still too small to put him in the conversation w the best PGs like hali

I've watched every Suns game this season. His vision and passing have improved and he's finding his teammates when double teamed.

He's easily a top 5 guard in the league. So few teams run a traditional PG these days.
