the modern day version of...

[Teanett]

i'm bored. here's a little game.
name one active player and name his older version, just by the style of play, not implying that one is as good the other.

iguodala is the modern pippen

dwight is ben wallace

[moe94]

How is Howard like Ben? Even at his absolute worst, Howard is light years ahead offensively.

Isiah = Paul

[Teanett]

Isiah = Paul

he's a stud, gots dpoy's, bad free throw shooter, no moves...
could be motumbo too

And Wallace was ten times tougher than Dwight. They are really nothing alike.

[Teanett]

David West = Terry Cummings

[Eric Cartman]

Kwame Brown = Anthony Bennett

[outbreak]

oladipo - d wade drive similar
dellevadova - young nash (never be anywhere near as good but they use screens the same and he's clearly modelled his game on nash)

[LAZERUSS]

Jerry Lucas and Kevin Love. Near mirror images of each other in physical, statistical, and skill levels.

[Kaspah]

Kurt rambis

Lebron

[Teanett]

melo = glen robinson

[gyu]

Kwame Brown = Anthony Bennett
Kwame is easily better.

No post moves yet averages 17-22ppg while Ben and Mutombo struggle to average 10.

Mirror images of each other really.

What is the best possible name you can combine to make a player?

1 game sample size is truly an accurate representation of his scoring abilities.

[therammingman]

jordan hill = ac green

[Teanett]

1 game sample size is truly an accurate representation of his scoring abilities.

it was an accurate represantation of his post moves.
i mean, sure his stats look like alonzo mourning but his game?
he's so fukking clumsy and akward... and zo could hit free throws.

[moe94]

Can't argue with that. If you cannot score on the Bargs, something is wrong.

[gyu]

he's so fukking clumsy and akward... and zo could hit free throws.
And yet he's still better than pretty much any center today.

Oh wait, Bargnani > Dwight.

AC was durable. Hill has been far from being durable

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Michael Jordan Hill

LeBron James Anderson Varejao

Metta World B. Free-man Williams

Raymond Felton Spencer Haywood

Kornel David Harrison Barnes

Carmelo Anthony Mason Plumlee

Antoine Walker Russell Westbrook

[KOBE143]

Tony Allen = Michael Jordan
Dwight Howard = Modern Day Poor Man Telephone Pole

anymore? :confusedshrug:

[russwest0]

LeBron = Oscar Robertson

[andremiller07]

Rubio = Andre Miller (before he got big)

Both had disgusting looking shots coming into the L (still do), average foot speed, above average passers and Miller never really posted up much up until after the season Sam Cassell had his way with him in the playoffs.

While they are different with Rubio being a much better pick n roll player and Dre being a much better finisher/slasher they are similar as well in a lot of regards.

[russwest0]

Harden is basically a 6'5 LeBron

[Teanett]

kevin martin=jeff hornacek

[Teanett]

chandler parsons = brent barry

[9512]

Chris Jackson/ Abdul rauf = Stephen Curry

Bargnani = Zan Tabak

[Teanett]

westbrook = sprewell

[Teanett]

JR Smith = John S... oh fck no, not at all :rant

:oldlol:

[Element]

Austin Rivers = Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant = Michael Jordan

Therefore,

Austin Rivers = Michael Jordan

[Element]

Ray Allen = Reggie Miller (duh)

[fpliii]

Kobe = Kobe

Harden is basically a 6'5 LeBron

Considering Lebron came into the NBA as a PG, being 6'5" would not be a size he could use to transition into SF and playing SG would make no good usage of his vision/passing/playmaking, he would most likely stay a PG........ he would become something like a more athletic Jason Kidd with a far greater scoring arsenal and Tony Allen's defense perhaps... James Harden is more like a lefty Dwyane Wade with less of everything (at least when compared to prime Wade)...

nah dude, Wade is nothing like Harden

Harden is exactly like Manu, minus the defense, hustle and court vision. They both suck dick from mid-range, flop like Cristiano on his period, spam the 3 ball and look to draw FT's instead of making the shot. The difference being that Manu draws legit contact because he's so shifty with his movements, while Harden is just a straight Ref favorite.

[PP34Deuce]

Paul Pierce = Mark Acquire
Rajon Rondo = Undersized Jason Kidd
Melo = Bernard King

[Teanett]

thabo sefolosha = bryon russell

i have a feeling bron or wade will hit a championship clinching shot over him :D

[Teanett]

actually,

dwight = kevin willis

props to KBlaze

iguodala is the modern pippen

dwight is ben wallace

anyone else?

A team reached the finals with Dwight as it's best player by far. if anything ben Wallace is a very poor man's Dwight offensively despite their similarities in defense

[leMVP]

Anthony Bennett is the modern day version of Kwame brown, he may surpass him in being the worst #1 overall pick in history.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Iman Shumpert = Dwyane Wade
