There is always debate from generation to generation on who the greatest positional players are in the NBA. It’s difficult to compare players from different generations due to the number of teams in the league at any given time, the various rules changes that have taken place through the years, etc. However, you can always look at the body of work, and the affect that player had on the game for current and future generations. So let’s get your opinion. Of the candidates below, who is the greatest point guard in NBA history?
- Magic Johnson
- John Stockton
- Bob Cousy
- Mark Jackson
- Steve Nash
- Isiah Thomas

Remove Mark Jackson and insert any of the following:
Mo Cheeks
Gary Peyton
Jason Kidd
Kevin Johnson
I could definitely go with J. Kidd, but Mark Jackson was a better floor general than those other cats. Now the person that really belongs on this list, and shame on me for not including them is Mr. Triple-Double himself, The Big O, Oscar Roberston. So in retrospect I’d drop Mark Jackson and Steve Nash and replace with J. Kidd and The Big O.
