    Something tells me Pendergraph would've grabbed more than 1 rebound against Orlando...

    Lets wait to see how consistent Pendergraph can be before we decide between the two.

    Career games missed due to injury:

    Aldridge: 26 (and counting)
    Pendergraph: 29

    Too close to call.

    Pendergraph. Assuming, of course, that the question is, "Which of them looks more like Weird Al Yankovich?"

    I got $20 that says Pendergraph knocks out Aldridge by the second round.

    This...

    Also, Pendergraph has never had over 30 points in a game, while Aldridge has done it more than once. Pendergraph has never had an 18 rebound game or a 5 block game like LMA (Aldridge has had more than one 5 block game). Plus, Aldridge has already had 2 games THIS YEAR in which he had 12 DEFENSIVE rebounds (Pendergraph has never had 12 Defensive rebounds in a game ) :)

    What are your thoughts, KS?

    If Jeff Pendergraph is the Second Coming of Brian Grant, and LaMarcus Aldridge is "Sheed without the 'tude" - then it is an interesting debate that recalls decisions Mike Dunleavy made back at the turn of the century, to start Grant and use Sheed as a 6th man. Only problem is - Grant had shown far more offensive ability than Pendergraph, and had a long record of consistency on defense. I'd definitely take Aldridge. But I like Pendergraph off the bench.

    The question to me should be this - backup PF: Outlaw vs. Pendergraph?

    Jesus. Thank you!

    And as for the Pendergraph or LMA argument it's LaMarcus and it isn't even that close.

    I was hoping like my thread, that this was a joke.

    this is not even worth debating.

    I'd say Pendy>Outlaw as a backup PF...He is ideal for what we need. Plus that mid range jumper doesn't look too bad.
