Who is better?


I have been arguing back and forth with my friends for awhile now about who is better between Chris Paul and Deron Williams. 

Deron Williams 
Height: 6-3
Weight: 205

Chris Paul
Height:6-0
Weight:175

Deron Williams is bigger, stronger, and a better shooter then CP3. He is a more Physical player and doesn't mind taking the ball right at the defender.

Chris Paul is quicker, faster, and more agile then Deron Williams. He can weave in and out of defenders and finish very well. 

They are both very good defenders but i would say CP3 is probably a little better then D-Will on the defensive end.

D-Will is a better shooter and has more range on his shot than CP3.

Chris Paul Averaged 21.1 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 11.6 apg, and 2.7 spg in the 2007-08 season 

Deron Williams Averaged 18.8 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 10.5 apg, and 1.1 spg in the 07/08 season

They are both outstanding passers and they both have their share of amazing crossovers and even better finishes.

Chris Paul is one of the best players in the world when he is in the open court. He uses his quicks to blow by defenders and get to the rim at will. CP3 is also in my opinion the best ally oop passer in the NBA which helps when he gets in the open court with Tyson Chandler or David West

Deron Williams Is also a beast on the break. D-will would rather drive the ball right at the defender and take the contact when he gets in the open floor. 

Chris Paul is more athletic than D-Will judging by his speed, quickness and jumping ability. D-will makes up for CP3's speed and quickness with strength. He is very effective at throwing his body around and using it to get to the rim at will.

They are both amazing players and in my opinion the top 2 Pg's in the NBA. The question is who do you think is better?
