No. You are incorrect again. I only took into account the games where raja actually played. Kobe against raja during the season averaged 42% on 48% shooting. That is what you call being owned.I only took into account 3 games. The playoffs were seperate
And hey. Raja during the season held kobe to under 50%. In the playoffs he did it twice even though in game 1 he wasn't because of his defense. Kobe was missing shots he usually made against defender including raja. Go check out the game again.Raja is what he is, a good man to man defender and a average off the ball defender. That doesn't equal great.

I think he is one of the top defenders at SG though and I'm confident in his abilities against the best. :happy0144:

Yes, and we're probably still going to be going on this because everyone here always wants to put something (including me)

Fine I guess I'll be the bigger man and step down from this Eliiite, but of course you agree with yourself, jeez.
Why dont you guys solve this once and for all- Find out the stats on how raja did against the top offensive players in the L- Iverson, Kobe, Allen, Wade. And then see if it stacks up. Then you would have answers - not just against Kobe-
Why you have to restart this again? The argument just was about a few spots here and there. I don't even care anymore. I'll wait for him to prove it this season.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ASUFan22 @ Oct 22 2006, 05:51 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Then maybe Luke Walton needs to grow up. His takedown of Tim Thomas was pretty bad, close to what Raja did. How about Kwame Brown throwing Diaw to the floor? He needs to grow up. Kobe throwing a bunch of elbows he needs to grow up. Bruce Bowen kicking people in the face, he needs to grow up. Ron Artest pulling pants down and fighting with fans he needs to grow up. Tim Duncan crying like a baby to the refs after every call against him needs to grow up. Raja did nothing wrong here. And on the clothesline he was trying to go after his shoulders and take him down to show him that he can't get away with throwing elbows at everyone.</div>yeah, your right they do need to grow up. so does raja....I dont understand why you are arguing. im not singling him out...open up your eyes.

They only got better in the offseason and they did almost take your Suns out of the playoffs, so to say that they won't make the playoffs for sure is an iffy statement.
