Official "Who's Better" Thread

Big Ben.

Yeah, now you're supposed to ask one. At least put a little bit of effort into it. God damnit.

Jason Terry or Ben Gordon?

Gordon, he is producing fine while Terry can't take enough shots with Nowitzki.

Luol Deng or Desmond Mason?

Gordon, he is producing fine while Terry can't take enough shots with Nowitzki.

But does that make him better? Because he scores more? And does that make Terry worse because he plays with a superstar and doesn't shoot as much? Sorry to be picky, but if I understand you correctly that logic doesn't work in determining who is better.

What I am saying is that Terry could probally play better, but since he is together with so many stars his talents can't do anything, and therefore Gordon who isn't choked by stars is able to utilize his talents and plays better. I am saying Gordon plays better, not that his talent is greater.

Gordon, he is producing fine while Terry can't take enough shots with Nowitzki.

Luol Deng or Desmond Mason?

Mehmet Okur or Dirk Nowitzki in 5 years ?

At this point in time Dirk is just better at almost every aspect of the game. Allthough he is better at everything, you can compare them pretty good because they have a similar style of play.

Okur will in 5 years be 33 and in his 9th season in the NBA.
Nowitzki will be 34 and in his 13th season in the NBA.

Assuming this I think the differerance between Dirk and Mehmet will stay about the same in 5 years so that would mean that dirk is still better.


In 3 years who will be the best

Shaquille O'neal
Greg Oden
Andrew Bynum

Bynum i'd say....Shaq will struggle to score 10 ppg, if he's even playing. We don't know what Oden will offer just yet.

OJ Mayo or Derrick Rose?

rose

pippen, tmac

pippen defensively, tmac offensively...overall tmac

Melo or Pierce

melo

hill, pippen

Pippen

Kirilenko or G. Wallace

Definitely J.R. He has made a big impact as a starter, and is putting up better numbers/has more potential than Mo-Pete.

Paul Shirley or LeBron James

But seriously... Kirilenko or Gerald Wallace?

kirilenko

kerr, paxon

Kerr, and his 3 pointers.

AI or AI2 in 2 years?

Kerr, and his 3 pointers.

AI or AI2 in 2 years?

AI2, he is just so talented (AI is too), but in 2 years I predict AI2 will be an all star.

Melo or Paul Pierce

Was done like 5 posts back...

Melo...

Larry Hughes or Kevin Martin

Was done like 5 posts back...

Melo...

Larry Hughes or Kevin Martin

My mistake sorry.

This year overall, Kevin Martin.
Recently when Hughes is at PG though, I'd pick hughes > martin. But hughes is too inconsistent for me to pick him.

Daniel Gibson or Jose Calderon

i'd say Calderon, he has a bit more experience.

I don't know if it's been done...
T-Mac or Vince?

tmac

but they're both incredibly lazy


milicic, bargani

Bargnani, he is the #2 MVP candidate. Darko is still a bust.

Bruce Bowen or Mike Dunleavy

Ima go with Bowen


Who's the better Celtics PG? Delonte, or Rondo.

Edit: I know West won against Telfair on page 2 or 3 I think.

West.

Ilgauskas or Brad Miller

Brad Miller

Jason Terry or Arenas?
