Yeah I don't think you'll get it right. The Harvard Review of Philosophy named this as the hardest logic problem ever, so its pretty tough.

But the analysts all say its true, so it must be!!! THE ANALYSTS!!!

If we ask who Hubie Brown would rather have to build a franchise between MAGIC ****ING JOHNSON and McHale... I wonder what his opinion might be. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.,

Of course it would be Magic and I would build it with Magic too assuming it was a normal NBA era and not 30 years of avaliable players.

However in a draft like this, where there are TONS more players avaliable, and offense is so easy to find, defense is even MORE important than it normally is. Obviously u guys fail at logic to realize this.

First off, yes you can. Amare most definitely has one-on-one skills. Maybe not as good as McHale, but he has them.

Secondly, wtf cares!!!!??? So I'll run a pick n roll at the end of the game with him then. Hes one of the best finishing big men ever and is insanely hard to stop out of the pick n roll. Again, why do you care how they score as long as they score?

Because Amare NEEDS a great pg for this to happen. There are only a handful of Steve Nash's in league history. I'm glad u ignored my posts about the other lowpost players fg percentage tho.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL @ the two bolded statements together in the same post

This is speculation. The same type of speculation that says Grant Hill wasn't injury prone but he just rushed back too quickly.

And what do you base ur posts off of, the "drtg" rating on basketball referance which would indicate McHale was a below average defender, when infact he was one of the best defenders in his era?

Or the fact that he didn't start for 6 years, even though Manu doesn't start either? Manu clearly isn't even an all-star type player, I MEAN HE DOESN'T EVEN START!!!!!! And then claim that it was because McHale wasn't good enough to start even though he clearly was better than Maxwell?

Um yeahhhhhhhh LOL @ u

When you don't know one of the positions that one of the best players in NBA history plays and then you go on to call other people clueless and STATE YOUR OPINIONS AS FACTS WITHOUT PROVIDING EVIDENCE(one of my biggest pet peeves) you're going to get called out on it big time. Deal with it.

uh he played the majority at SG, not PG.

Yes Amare is a better rebounder than Kevin Mchale, YOU HAVE THE FACTS TO BACK IT UP, BASKETBALL REFERANCE SAYS SO LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Silly me thinking that the guy who got more rebounds in less minutes while playing a slower pace was the better rebounder. Clearly I didn't look deep within the stats like you're capable of.

Wait a second are the modern day Suns' big men being compared to the 80's C's big men? wtf?

Parish and Marion's rebounding were/are pretty close despite 5 inches in height--which obv means Marion is way more EXPLOSIVE. Had to use it, hasn't been said in awhile.

actually, i know of a several logic based math questions that remain unsolved, and by extension are more difficult than this problem.

Of course, its us...we're all stupid and you're smart. You're never wrong. I still havn't seen you ever change you opinion on something even though you claim that you're willing to. You come across as EXTREMELY close minded imo.

Yes and then go ask anyone with any clue about basketball in the 80's and today's game, and tell them you think Amare is a better rebounder than Kevin McHale. You can even bring up ur fancy basketball referance stats while they point and laugh at you.

ugh, where is nick, same business as zoid. sigh

This is coming from someone who implied McHale didn't start because he wasn't good enough to, and that Amare is a better rebounder than Kevin McHale. Um ya, that tells me all I need to know.

No! It does not take a great PG to make Amare successful in the pick n roll. Steve Nash is great because of his insane shooting ability for a PG. Contrary to popular belief, Steve Nash is not that much better at passing than (just realized I was naming names...basically I named a bunch of slightly above average NBA PGs). Any PG would be successful at running the pick n roll with Amare. Nash's value comes from his shooting which then opens up the floor for his passing because opponents must respect his shot so much.

And I ignored your comparison of McHale to other's FG% because we're not talking about other players vs McHale. We're talking about Amare vs McHale. This is what people were talking about when they said that nearly all your posts seem to be about McHale. Leave those other players out of this discussion.

Where did I bring up drtg? Where did I bring up Manu? As Vyse would say "Strawman much?"

I didn't make any statement of my own, just told you what they claimed.

EPipeN11,

Stop using this "go ask an ESPN analyst and they'll tell you...." argument.

Its complete speculation on your part of what someone else would say. For that reason alone its a ridiculous argument.

If you have some of your own insight, I'd love to hear it, but your entire argument seems to be telling me to "ask the experts".

Of course Amare would be successful with any PG in the pick and roll, Amare is a great player. He just wouldn't be nearly as succesful as he is with Nash.

And it's because fg% off pick and rolls and fg% off low post are two different things (obv the pick and roll one is higher, because they are only getting the ball for the most part when they are open). I'm sure u think Chandler is a great offensive player too, I mean he shoots 60 percent from the field lol.

When comparing McHale's fg% u need to compare him to other low post scorers, not to pick and roll only players for reasons I explained above. McHale wins vs all of them except Shaq.

I seriously think you're the most arrogant person I've ever encountered on this board, and thats saying something. Are you like this in real life? You never ever think you could be wrong. I still havn't seen you change your opinion ever.

I thought u did bring up drtg, since u always seem to throughout this thread. I mean it's on basketball referance, it clearly is a great stat and tells everything.

And the Manu point was in regards to u claiming McHale there was a reason McHale didn't start (implying that he wasn't good enough to). I compared it to Manu of today's game just so u could see how ridiculous ur statement was.
