NBA All-Star Reserves named.

Sometimes people forget that CP3 was picked one spot after Deron Williams. Utah was really torn at the time as they obviously liked both of them and were looking for a replacement for John Stockton. I heard general reasons they took Williams over CP3 (and it was almost a coin flip for them) was they liked his tough NBA body, edge on D, edge as leader, and felt he had a better and deeper outside shot. I really don't think they regret their choice even if CP3 is now seen as #1 to Williams #2 as big-time PG's.
 
Wow, Rondo is a beast. Dude does it all. He's not far from being the best PG in basketball. Paul is not in a league of his own, that's total crap. I love the kid but if I had to choose between him and Dwill I'd probably take Dwill. I think he plays a little harder and really wants it. I think all 3 of them should be in a little cluster together(they're all great and bring a different array of awesome-ness to the table)

+1 on everything here. Stats aren't everything, and Paul gets dominated by Williams every time out.

Rondo still fails to have a three point shot, or a jump shot for that matter. His free throws are atrocious and kill my fantasy NBA teams. He is a good stat stuffer, but that doesn't automatically translate into him being the best player. Without the plethora of shooters Boston has, he wouldn't be able to rack up quite as many assists. Teams absolutely have no fear of him on the outside.

Chris Paul is much much better than Deron Williams. Even at such a smaller size and frame, Paul outrebounds and plays better defense. If you don't believe Paul is along the tier of LeBron, Kobe, and Dwight... then idk, I don't feel I need to justify it.
