    Right now, K-mart. Even if K hasn't reached his prime yet, Chris Webber isn't as good as he used to be.

    "Pistol" Pete Maravich or Jason Williams

    I'd take Maravich. He's the original, and he was a great scorer.

    Who's better, right now: Webber or Peja

    Peja by far, Chris Webber isn't himself, like I said.

    Ugliest, nice shot. (Ugliest shot, but is effective.) Michael Redd or Jason Kidd (from what I heard it's ugly, but I don't really think it is)

    What kind of a comparison is that? Of course it's Redd. I can't believe you compared him to Kidd.

    Kurt Thomas or PJ Brown?

    shawn marion. he's got the ugliest J in the league.

    all time ugliest effective shot...easily reggie. his feet are set differently on every shot, his toes are crooked, and his fingers smash into each other on his release. fundamentally speaking its a hideous jump shot

    (oh whoops...now i see how this game is played lol)

    -edit- pj brown. he's a double double machine and one of the best low post defenders in the league

    LeBron for sure.

    Better comparison, even though neither has played a game yet:

    Dwight Howard to Kevin Garnett, or Ben Gordon to Michael Jordan?

    ^ Dwight to KG, Ben Gordon's physical size and game are more similar to Chauncey Billups' than MJ's...


    I will be patient with the development of:

    Jonathan Bender or Tyson Chandler

    Jonathan Bender. He wasn't a 2nd round pick, simple as that. He also showed moments of brilliance so I think his development will be a lot quicker than Chandler's.

    Who would you want on your team?

    Kobe or T-Mac

    ^ Kobe Bryant... not being biased T-Mac is more explosive and leaner and longer, but T-Mac still has to prove that he is a clutch player.

    Chandler wasn't a second round pick either, he was picked in the first round, 2nd overall, while Bender 5th overall.

    Magic Johnson by a longshot.

    In 5 years...Jameer Nelson or Sebastian Telfair?

    Hmm, hard choice, but I gotta go with Telfair. He has a lot more potential right now, and within 5 years' time, he would have passed the learning curve in the NBA, and be ready to contribute. Nelson, meanwhile, might have reached the peak of his abilities.

    In 5 years, Emeka Okafor or Dwight Howard?

    Dwight Howard in 5 years, are you kidding me? Kid's next KG, Magic saw it, and that's why he got drafted first. He could average 24ppg, 13rpg, 4apg, and 2 bpg while Emeka would prolly 16ppg, 12rpg and 2bpg :P


    In five years, Wizards or Mavericks?

    I meant to say the 2nd selection dude. It was a mistake.

    Bernard King or Alex English?

    Bernard King, he played just like Carmelo does... unstoppable!


    If there was NO injury:

    Grant Hill (prime) or Penny Hardaway (prime)?

    Grant Hill. He was a better all around player. IMO He was top three in the 90's (Jordan & Olajuwon the other two) He could do everything Penny could but could do it better. Grant Hill had a better all around offensive game,he had a better defensive game and he came to play night in and night out.


    Prime for Prime:

    Kevin Johnson or Tim Hardaway

    Kevin Johnson, better leader. Was no second fiddle like Hardaway to Mourning.

    Barkley or Mchale?
