I put up a similar poll in

I put up a similar poll in the preseason, but the emergence of Teague and Curry's smooth transition to point from the two, changes things up quite a bit. Who do you think has been the best in the game so far?

Well I know who I got...

...as a Tar Heel I have to say Ty Lawson, and while most think that is homer pick, it's not. Because look at the struggles this year for the Heels and they are when Lawson didn't play his best. But when the junior pg is on his game UNC is as good as they get on offense. Also, I think that Lawson can play decent on the ball defense, and I think he is the best choice of the group.

Tyrese Rice

What about Tyrese Rice? He has 18 ppg and 5.7 apg, while leading a medicore talented BC team to a 6-3 start in the second hardest conference. He gets no love, and is a remarkable scorer.

Someone help me out here please...

...but how can anyone that has watched SU play in the last stretch of the season vote for Johnny Flynn? He has been out of control and playing more for style points (for the NBA scouts) than actual points in the game.

Eric Maynor

This guy is like the Flash. Too quick and he's got ice water in his veins.Completely unintimidated(ask a Duke fan) and always in control no matter the situation on the court.Every team he plays tries to shut him down and in 3 years Ive never heard of it happening, especially in clutch situtations.Give him the ball when the game is on the line and he will win for you.
I also like Jonny Flynn.He's a flashier Eric. Also ,Levance Fields is criminally underrated. Better than Lawson or Collison for my money!

Flynn

I think you're being a little harsh on Flynn Alex, not everyone is lucky enough to have 3-4 other All-Americans playing around him..
