Charles Barkley said Anthony Davis will not be better than Blake Griffin

[Tarik One]

I disagree

[Joyner82reload]

I think he already is better than Griffin taking defense into account

[Milbuck]

Charles Barkley is a ****ing moron. I haven't taken anything he's said seriously in years.

[CJ Mustard]

Barkley knows nothing about defense, so this isn't surprising. :lol Dude actually thinks he's a top 3 PF ever.

[LoneyROY7]

Anthony Davis will be considered the best player in basketball within 4-5 years.

[PyrrhusX]

First he said bran might be as good as MJ and now he spouts this bs? :facepalm
He must have started drinking early :facepalm :facepalm

[Joyner82reload]

:roll:

[fos]

He's already better. Blake Griffin is a one trick pony. It's a helluva trick, but he's too one dimensional.

[FrobeShaw]

offense? :roll:

He's not even a bad defender.

[fpliii]

Wow, Chuck. :facepalm

[Yankstar]

BG is good and getting better. Davis will be better as a whole player but offensively he will never do what Griffin has done in the last month :bowdown:

[JohnFreeman]

yep

[Micku]

Premature call right there if he said it.

Griffin has been a monster this season and has played the best he has ever played. But Davis is right up there because of his defense. He is just a sophomore and he is already better than sophomore Griffin. He'll probably get better.

[navy]

Griffin has been dominating and winning. There is no debate who is better right now.

[Inferno]

Winning what?

[Cold soul]

Give it few more years and Anthony Davis will be munch better. Like others have said in 4-5 years time he could be best player in NBA.

[Yankstar]

AD will never be offensively as good as BG was in the last month, I'm calling it :rockon:

Maybe but than again maybe not. Time will only tell....

[senelcoolidge]

Anthony Davis has become so overrated it's too bad for him.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

This
ADs mad overrated. Great 1on1 defender but help D needs alot of work. I dont think hes even clear cut better defender than Griffin right now. Blake is much better at defending the pickandroll and is the better post defender too.

Offensively its far too early to project on AD. Hes shown good signs in pickandroll but hes still heavily limited. Blake went on a tear w/o CP carried the offense, unstoppable in transition, good midrange and can create for others unlike Davis. Hes a far better offensive player at this point and defense is close.

[Magic731]

Anthony Davis has become so overrated it's too bad for him.
Blake Griffin has always been overrated just because he jumps high.

[MichaelCorleone]

Charles Barkley has no credibility as an analyst.:facepalm

Anthony Davis is already better at this point, hes a 20/10 player.

Your delusional. Blake griffin is leading his teams to wins and putting up stats.

[eklip]

Griffin is definitely better right now, but Davis has more potential.

[Harison]

Davis potential is higher, but we had plenty of potentials who never reached it, so its premature to crown AD just yet.

That said, I'm pretty high on the kid, and if I would have to pick either in draft, I would probably choose Davis.

[sd3035]

Winning what?

basketball games, idiot

[wang4three]

Barkley has never been good at predicting the future, and it's always been fun to poke at him for his incorrectness of it. Though he did call the Mavericks' championship in 2011.

That said, I found it more abhorrent about Kenny acting like he's the only person in the world that thinks AD will be the best PF in the league. Pretty much everyone thinks that he will with some thinking he already is.

He has picked against the Heat three times in a row. He didnt call shit. He just got lucky. He will probably pick against them this year as well.

[juju151111]

Blake has a superior pos t game at this point. AD is still a little bit raw.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

lets just see what happens. right now Blake is better offensively while Davis is ten times better on defense.
i see Davis adding more to his offense than Blake to his defense so i think davis will peak a little higher.
to be honest Davis has at least 3-4 years to develop offensively and defensively and he already has elite numbers and impact:eek: :eek: :applause:

[WesWelkerACL]

Thread title is misleading, he didn't exactly say this straight up.

[KyrieTheFuture]

Anthony Davis will never be as good on offense, passing or scoring, as Blake. He will assuredly be the better defender though.
