Strawman Me: A huge % of the guys who went from HS to the pros are among the best who ever played Strawman: Duncan went to college and he's among the best who ever played
No I'm not using stats. I'm using drive, ethics, eye test and leadership qualities. His head is way more valuable than Damon
Says the person who doesn't seem to realize Kyrie was hurt ALL of the last 3 seasons. Nope, he was not healthy in any of them. And don't think for a NY MINUTE that Kyrie has ANY Defense. Because he does not. He is EQUALLY as bad as Lillard in this department. I'll take the healthy kid (bringing up the broken foot Lillard's JR season is foolish) over the one who is injured every season.
Here's why you don't trade Lillard for Kyrie (even if the deal was available): 1. Contract. Kyrie was a #1 Pick and his salary is WAY higher than Lillard's. (he was picked a year before Lillard. we wouldn't start negotiations for another year) 2. Same Upside. I don't see either having more upside than the other. (feel free to debate this) 3. Kyrie seems more laid back while Lillard seems more intense and has more of a chip on his shoulder (small school/big school syndromes).
HoopsHype rumors Damian Lillard: Young players... That place so much value on "gettin buckets" , how valuable R U when you're on a team that doesn't need U to "get buckets" Twitter @Dame_Lillard Read more at http://hoopshype.com/rumors.htm#SWIuccghPKAD5DAx.99
It's funny that a Nets blogger would have that opinion, because if there is an overrated "elite" PG in the game, it's Deron Williams and his career PER of 19.
It's ok to call someone overrated and not dis them. The Lillard hype is everywhere, and I think all the guy is saying is that he has only played a year.
