[QUOTE=97 bulls;14444246]I asked you to prove a point. If one is scared to score and the other isn't, but they score the same points, what does that tell you? What you were about to say was Simmons plays in a more score friendly era. And that's 100% true.[/QUOTE]
The contrast was already explained. Era plays a role, ya, but mentality plays a bigger one. Their approach couldn't be different, which is why points output is irrelevant.
Pippen...get real.

Bro. You ain't scoring 16-17 points a night in the mid 90s to mid 00s being scared to shoot.

I would agree, but who's saying otherwise? :confusedshrug:
[QUOTE=97 bulls;14441719]I swear the Pippen hate is real on ISH.[/QUOTE]
I swear the Bulls hyperbole is real on ISH.
Pippen was better than Odom with a slight edge on offense and a big one on defense.

But you can do it today

That's why comparing points is immaterial.

Which is what I've been saying. It's like inflation. A dollar today isn't worth as much as a dollar 50 years ago. Even though it's still a dollar. Ben Simmons 16ppg isn't the same as Odom 16ppg. I'm glad we agree. Remember this conversation.

All that is true. That's why you comparing their points made no sense. Not only that, but Ben and Lamar don't have the same scoring approach.
