I have a soft spot in my heart for the Point Guards, mainly because it was my position in High School (and pick-up games).  Often underappreciated for what they actually do on the floor; if you don't have a legit guy who can both run and control your offense, as well as sparkplug that offense if need be with offensive output, your team is going to have problems.  This week presents three big names, which for whatever reason haven't spent very much time in the top three this season.

 Gold

Steve Nash - PG - Phoenix Suns - It appears that Nash has broken out of his shooting slump finally, and has returned to "Top Performances" form.  This past week for Nash: 22.3 pts, 3.3 reb, 12.3 asst against 3.7 turn/game, 1.7 stl and shot 57.9% FG and 100% FT, and made 4.3 3-pt/game at 45.5%.  This is the Nash we're all used to having on a nightly basis.

Silver

Jason Kidd - PG - Dallas Mavericks - Nash's former teammate seems to have gotten it together this week, at least on the defensive end.  These aren't quite the numbers offensively that we're used to, but defensively this performance will do.  Kidd's past week: 13.8 pts, 7.5 reb, 10.8 asst against 2.5 turn/game, 3.0 asst, 0.5 blk and shot 45.9% FG and 100% FT, making 1.8 3-pt/game at 66.7%.

Bronze

Deron Williams - PG - Utah Jazz - Williams continued his fantastic play on the season this week.  He continues to be the catalyst which makes the Jazz engine go, and has helped to solidify the Jazz' spot in the playoffs.  This past week for Williams: 15.5 pts, 3.3 reb, 13.5 asst against 2.3 turn/game, 1.8 stl and shot 44.9% FG, 100% FT and made 1.8 3-pt game at 50.0%

For those who need totals instead of averages, Kidd bumps into first (4 games), Joe Johnson (PG/SG - Atlanta Hawks) moves into second (5 games) and Deron Williams comes in third.
