Calderon "The Facilitator" Vs. The League

[Raptorsss]

Calderon is 17th in PER for point-guards and 18th in value added. I think that's an appropriate measurement of his value.

According to [some] Raptors fans he's a bottom 3 PG in the league. Raps fans always underrate Jose.

PG's better than Jose IMO

Derrick Rose
Steve Nash
Rondo
Derron Williams
Chris Paul (having a tough time at the moment)
Stephen Curry
John Wall

That makes Jose the 8th best point guard in the league. I'm sure other people will argue that there are a couple others who are better (There is definitely a debate for Jameer Nelson and Jason Kidd) but I guess I'm confused why people are talking like Jose is chopped liver. He is a top 10 pg in the league this season and is only 29. Irving would be great if we get him but to me, this season's Jose is a good enough point guard to start on a title contender and there is no one else on this team you can say that about.

Curry?!

I don't like PER for Jose because the reason Jose's PER is lower this season than it was the last time he was healthy is that his shooting percentage is down quite a bit. Given Jose's excellent shooting form and career average as a 0.488 shooter, I don't see that trend continuing into next season and I think you'll see his PER back to almost 20 when he gets his stroke back.

I should add that I am an eternal optimist for all thing Raptors .

Curry might be an exaggeration, I just realllly like his game.

I like Jose too, he can be a top 10 point-guard, but right now he's playing in the bottom third of the league.

Because as comments are added to a thread, it gets bumped up to the top of the pages for threads.

Inactive threads keep getting pushed down.

The last thread I see you started is on page 4, that will require you to look back through instead of insinuating threads are removed and thread ideas are perjured.

My apologies if I misunderstood or misinterpreted the comment. Looking back at my comment it was a little abrupt and I apologize for that.
