WTF are you even saying? We're comparing Barkley's MVP season to Davis season this past year. I'm not mixing stats and that wasn't his best year from three. How did I cherry-pick his best year from three when it wasn't his best year from three? Lol dude.. stop while you're behind.

Fair point he did have one better year. So You are taking him at 29. The rest of my points still stand.

Lets compare those years then.
Davis scored more points(per 100 possessions 6 more points per game), shot better from the free throw line and got to the free throw line more, Turned the ball over much less, blocked way more shots. Most of all Davis was a far superior athlete and defender all around. He has the ball handling skills to bring the ball up and drive.

Barkely did shoot a better TS% of 1.6% better, he did rebound at a higher rate of 0.9% better.

Its not a head and shoulders gap but I think Davis is better. I also think Davis would bother Barkley a lot matched up and negate a lot of what made him good.

Davis standing much taller and much more athletic would be a nightmare matchup for Barkley.

This.
Close statistically but I take the guy with better size and length in this matchup.

I remember Addie voting for me in one of these lol, and I had to vote for him. (I won)

Edit: To prevent further drama, we were matched against each other. No vote favoring.

Why do you hate addictionary?

I actually like addictionary a lot. He's one of my favorite posters on Jazzfanz. Usually I love his teams, but I just don't think his roster is that great this year.

The AD/Shaq combo was brilliant, but people are acting like its unbeatable. It's not. Shaq was a freak, but NONE of his other starters have ever accomplished anything. Westbrook has at least gotten to the finals, but everyone knows Durant was the star of that team. Harden is a choker who is terrible on D and AD can barely make the 8th seed in the playoffs.

Westbrook, Harden, Mashburn are nowhere close to Stockton, Pierce and Pippen. I don't even think it's close. Neither Mashburn or Harden should even be starting. I'd do the same thing for Spy, but his writeup was epic. He doesn't need my help.

This. Again my 6th and 7th best players are better than his starting SF.

I was just kidding, it was a jab at WC's comment but I guess he deleted it.

Major disrespect to Stockton and Barkley here.

I don't know about people, but I would have never said anything like this. As a matter of fact I stated 3 of your players as some of my favorite players of all time:

Stockton
Barkley
Pippen


I have switched 1-2 spots in defensive matchups on both starters and bench on my lost write-up.


Mashburn being underrated is not something unexpected. His career was affected by injuries but he is known to having Pippen potential without those injuries. He also was a great guy without domestic violence or drug abuse records.

Here is my post about him on the original thread if anyone wants to check him out:
