1-Rondo & Ray
2-Parker & a healthy Ginobili
3-Vince Carter & Devin Harris
4-Kidd & Terry
5-Rose & Gordon
 
Am I missing anyone? The top 3 combos are a tossup.

Ray and Rondo work together as well as anyone in the NBA. Rondo's penetration sets up Ray beautifully and Ray on the perimeter gives Rondo great spacing to go to work. I also love the fact that Ray doesn't need the ball in his hand to be effective. Vince and Ginoboli are at their best creating and not the spot up shooter that Ray is...then again who is?

You could also make the case that a healthy KG, Pierce and Perk form the best starting frontcourt in the NBA.

I think DWade and Chalmers need to be on that list, granted DWade is carrying Chalmers there. Bibby and Joe Johnson also.

Can't forget a healthy Agent zero/ butler combo. I know he's listed as a foward, but he definently has great guard attributes.

Know what? I hate the Lakers organization but the best PG and SG combo in the NBA is the one they have - Kobe and Fisher.

The two alternate in carrying/bringing down the ball, setting up plays and shooting the ball. They do it with so much ease. Their only downside is neither is an excellent ballhandler (Kobe is even better in that skills-wise than Fish).

Their combined postgame output is huge plus either one will pull the game-winning shot when they are asked to.

Yeah, you could. But there are two tragic things at work here against us.

1. Garnett's injury.

2. A second-rate bench.

So far, we're fighting against both fairly well. Until the minutes catch up, that is.

Bibby and Joe Johnson's another as well. I'd go Rondo/Ray then them. Ben Gordon's playing well but he's too iffy over the long haul IMO.

Know what? I hate the Lakers organization but they own the one of the best PG and SG combo in the NBA.  Either Fisher or Kobe bring down the ball, set up plays and score with so much ease.

In the postgame's boxscore, the two's output is huge. Either player also delivers the big blow or the game's winning shot.

Of course, the two can be matched by a Lebron and Mo Williams combo.

Lebron and Mo do a whole lot more then match Kobe and Fisher. Wait until the Finals.
