The top point guards in NBA history

[post_page_title]37. Derek Fisher[/post_page_title]
The player opposite Mike Bibby during those finals? One Derek Fisher. Starting from the final tally, Fisher guided the Laker to five NBA championships as a starting point guard, finished as the league’s all-time leader in playoff games played and holds the 18th greatest playoff moment in NBA history – as decided by the league itself – for hitting a buzzer beater with 0.4 second left in game 5 of the 2004 Western Conference Semifinals against the San Antonio Spurs.

Working our way backwards, Fisher never put up gaudy numbers but was a floor general in every sense of the term, serving as a locker room and floor leader in almost all of his two decades in the league.

“Gaudy numbers” might as well have been Stephon Marbury’s middle name. A two-time NBA All-Star in 2001 and 2003, Marbury was a “shoot first, pass second” point guard that nevertheless managed to average 19.3 point and 7.6 assists per game throughout his career. Named Mr. New York Basketball his senior year of high school, Marbury was supposed to be the next great NYC point guard after Mark Jackson and Kenny Anderson, but never quite got there.

Possibly his most memorable moment came when he played a major role in the Knicks imploding during his five seasons there. He made sporadic playoff appearances and shined personally, but his teams were never destined for postseason greatness. He still nevertheless ranks in the top 26 in NBA history in assists and assists per game.
