    I rip on her about it to this day, and it was several months ago. I will never, ever, for the rest of my life let her forget about it.

    Seriously, who the fuck flushes a WHOLE potato down the toilet? She's smart, but she has zero common sense.

    knowledge and IQ are totally different things
    IQ is a just ratio between your mental and actual age using standardized testing
    this is a ridiculous thread because there is no way to actually know for sure who is smarter than the other
    if it doesn't relate to basketball IQ, then this is more of an off-topic thread, isn't it?

    Kobe, Bosh, Nash seem decently smart. Amare, Lebron and Melo on the other hand...

    That's f*cking hilarious. I never went to college, and my fiancee went to college for 1 year before she couldn't afford it, but I think through high school I had a GPA around 3.0. She was consistently around a 3.7. When she went to college for 1 year she made the Dean's List. Yet there are things everyday that just make me say, "WTF?" that are just commonsense things.

    So obviously she has the better record and slightly higher education. But she's stuck working at Macy's as an assistant manager for $19/hour while I get to work for a company inspecting drives parts with no college experience for $25/hour, while anything between 40-50 hours is time and a half ($37.5/hour) an anything over 50 is double time ($50/hour). Then if I work a holiday while I'm over 50 hours I get time-and-a-half + double time which is $62.5/hour.

    She always punches me in the arm when I bring up the fact she did all that hard work in high school, went to college for a year and wasted her time there...while I coasted through high school not really being stressed over anything and I get paid more than she does for an easier job.

    By watching several interviews and highlights of each player listed, I was able to use advanced algorithms to estimate (within 5% accuracy) the real IQ of each player listed (Except for Dirk, his accent f*cked me up). Here they are in decreasing order of intelligence:

    150 Kobe Bryant
    140 Chris Bosh
    125 Tim Duncan, Steve Nash
    120 Kevin Garnett
    115 Chris Paul
    110 Dwyane Wade
    105 Amar'e Stoudemire
    100 Tracy McGrady
    95 LeBron James, Shaquille O'Neal
    90 Paul Pierce
    85 Dwight Howard
    80 No Chill Gil
    75 Carmelo Anthony

    (?? German) Dirk Nowitski

    My algorithm failed when it came to Dirk. I put together sophisticated neurological maps by studying highlights and then post game pressers FROM THE SAME GAMES (very important). Dirk speaks in a thick, sexy German accent and this interfered with the efficacy of my algorithm. I was unable to calculate an IQ score, instead concluding that he is simply German.
