Whoa. Deja vu with these last posts. Weird.
Anyways, Parker isn't even close to Nash, Kidd, and barely (if he does) the top 10 points guards in the league. He's just too inconsistent right now, looking like Superman one game and entirely passive the next. And Parker doesn't have the passing skills to succeed as a passing guard. His strength is his league leading quickness and penetration skills. When he doesn't penetrate, he's almost useless on offense other than bringing the ball down.
Here are guys I'd rather have than Parker last year.
Jason Kidd
Steve Nash
Mike Bibby
Stephon Marbury
Gilbert Arenas
Chauncey Billups
Here are guys I'd put in the same league as Parker.
Steve Francis
Andre Miller
Jamaal Tinsley
Jason Terry
Kirk Hinrich
That said, Parker, amazingly, is still the youngest of this group which means he still has a lot of time to grow and improve. The Spurs have a heck of a core signed long term with Ginobili, Parker, and Duncan.
