There have been a lot of great scoring point guards in recent memory: Stephon Marbury, Steve Francis, Glibert Arenas, Allen Iverson. Not one ring in the group, and Paul is arguably doing no more than Iverson did in his first few years in Philly.

Look at who has won championships lately. All teams with either a pure point guard or a pass first guy who can score. I will believe that a scoring point guard can win a championship when I see it. I would not build a team around one. It is the reason I hope my Zards can get Arenas out of town.
