You didnt really say anything bad, it's just that your remarks are disrespectful like your calling out something because what u think is superior. I said a few times that Howard wasn't the best dunker and didnt say ever he could dunk like MArion. But it didn't matter; someone disagreed with You gotta set em straight.

You're comparing a personal insult to laughing at your post? Last time I checked, my words weren't edited by the mod, yours were: (

You're really gonna call
me the disrespectful one? Really?
Your whole argument sums up as--JHo could do just about a good of a job as Marion (remember the whole vertical argument?), when it comes to throwing down lobs. That's what we were talking about, and you disagree. Why shouldn't I strong arm my opinion? Has JHo done anything to prove that he can throw down a lob? Does anybody in this thread even agree with you on that one?

No, it's not. I think Marion's shot is ugly has hell too, but I don't let that affect my judgement on him as a player. Not sure if you do or not--but, it sure seems that it does, since you're trying to throw stats back at me...

First of all...you're really gonna take out a subset of data from the season? Marion was on a new team for a short amount of time...come on. I could definitely do the same by taking out a data subset and tell you that Howard's 3pt% in the playoffs was .100.
Second, I'm not sure what stats you are looking at, because Marion's 3pt% for '07-'08 was
NOT .300. It was .333. And Howard's was .319.

Yup, Howard's was higher in 07-08. But Marion's Career is 0.821, compared to Howard's .774.

...Why would points matter? With the shooting percentages they have for the season...doesn't that just mean that Marion would score more points if he put up more shots?...and JHo put up more bricks in order to score more points?
