NBA – Best shooting guards in NBA
Dwyane Wade
If one talks statistically, then Dwyane Wade is the best and the efficient player playing in the shooting guard position. The Miami Heat player stands at number in this department, after Michael Jordan who is a legend of the game.
Majority agrees to the fact that Dwyane Wade is the best player in the position of shooting guard for some time now. The level of success he has achieved isn’t what he deserved and now that he has LeBron James on his side, his fans expectations are soon
to be granted.
Dwyane Wade is often classified as being a player who looks to form opening for other players and is an important element in order to break through the defences. What many tend to forget is the fact that Wade is one of those players who have excellent knowledge
and IQ about basketball. This is can be seen throughout the 2006 campaign, when the Miami Heat won the NBA title.
Mastering the point guard position, Wade has come up with equally good performances playing in other positions as well. According to the analysts the scale that rates the best shooting guards has Dwyane Wade at the top of it. Now that Chris Bosh and LeBron
James would be alongside him, this player can surely manage a few titles in the upcoming seasons.
Kobe Bryant
One of the main reasons for Kobe Bryant being the number 2 here is that he is always said to be one of the best, not the standout best.
This player has had a lot of success with the 5 NBA titles and multiple MVP awards but hasn’t been successful in being regarded as a player like Michael Jordan or Wilt Chamberlain. Players like Shaquille O’Neal or LeBron James always come up as to being
compared when it comes to regarding him the best.
With the success and the individual brilliance, this player has been able to reach the heights where triumph lies. Some argue that Kobe Bryant is the best in the franchise but majority say that his performances are overshadowed by players who are better
than him.
Kobe Bryant has excellent shooting abilities as well as the skill to make an open play. Being one of the good post players, Kobe Bryant is able to dominate the play. Being a human, Bryant has the flaw of being a weak decision maker and his tendency to get
injured.
Since he is one of the best passers of the game, Kobe provides his teammates open shots. Coupled with these are his abilities of being an exceptional defender and rebounder. Kobe doesn’t care whether the rest of the team is back or not, but after an attack
Kobe runs back to defend.
Despite all the flaws in his game, Kobe has been able to score 81 points in a game and win NBA titles, which truly make him one of the best players in the NBA.
Brandon Roy
Brandon Roy is a youngster and is flooded with loads of talent. This player has been a pro for 4 years and for the Portland Blazers. Analysts say that at the age of 26, Brandon Roy would be reaching the prime of his career.
The diversity in his game makes him one of the most exciting players to watch out. His dribbling and jump shot, everything seems to be inch perfect. With the effective shooting of this splendid player, he has been a key in demolishing the opposition.
Playing also as a team man, Brandon Roy puts in some good passes that give his teammates open chances for shooting. Added to this is the quickness in his game and his defensive mode of play. Roy is able to come up with steals and turn-overs on a regular
basis. What really makes in him unique is the fact that Brandon Roy is handy in defence whether being alone or being with a team.
With quite a few seasons left to play, Brandon Roy can surely become one of the best players in the NBA and climb up a few places in this list.
