Players like Rose and Westbrook are true PGs but the have such good scoring ability to go with it.

While very good players they are not true points to me. They play point strictly because they are the best scoring option at the guard or forward positions for their team or in Westbrook's case at times just a ball hog that tries to keep up scoring wise with Durant. True point guards are guys like Tony Parker who get the offense going for his teammates and only take over scoring wise for the most part if it's needed.


Westbrook isn't a 1...he's really a 2 playing the 1.

A pure point guard is Chris Paul, Steve Nash...guys like that. PASS FIRST

Not many true PG's left in the NBA. The game has changed since the days of Mark Price and John Stockton.

Well if you're wanting to get technical than there isn't many true PGs left if you're talking in the sense of NBA history, but in the modern era Rose and Westbrook are considered true PGs to me because the game is different. Now that being said I know what your saying. There are very few left but there still are some. Paul, Rondo, Rubio, and Parker are the best in the business at facilitating and offense.
