 The all-time point guard debate is heating up again.

In Episode 91 of Keep It A Buck, we break down one of the biggest basketball debates:
Are there really 10 point guards arguably better than Chris Paul?

CP3 is one of the most skilled floor generals the NBA has ever seen — elite leadership, elite IQ, elite playmaking. But when you start stacking up the all-time point guard list, the conversation gets interesting.

We debate:
🏀 Where Chris Paul really ranks all-time
🏀 10 point guards who have a real argument over him
🏀 Championships vs pure point guard skill
🏀 How different eras change the rankings

But that’s not the only NBA conversation heating up.

We also break down Luke Kornet’s comments about the Atlanta Hawks’ “Magic City” promotion, which sparked debate across the league. Kornet questioned whether an NBA team should promote a strip club tied to the culture of Atlanta — and the reactions across the basketball world have been mixed.

We discuss:
🔥 Did Luke Kornet go too far?
🔥 Is Magic City part of Atlanta’s basketball culture?
🔥 Should the NBA stay more family-friendly or embrace the culture of the cities they play in?

This episode is full of real basketball debate and unfiltered takes.
