Tough 1.

Hard two compare, two different positions with two different responsibilities for their teams.

Peak wade was a first round exit in oh-nine and ten due to them tanking waiting four bron and bosh.

When KG finally had some help he was in the WCF only 2 see the help get injured again

I think KG is more talented but he just didn't have that mentality to dominate. Wade just had that dog in him so I'd take Wade over him if starting a team.

KG had the mentality. His body type was an issue. Having a tall rangey wirey body prevented him from finishing through contact. Playoffs are more physical. So he tended to shoot 17 ft jumpers or fadeaway jumpers in the post. He just couldn't physically assert himself.

That's why I'm taking Wade cuz he could and his numbers in the playoffs increased where as KGs numbers decreased

Im going with Wade. Wade was a dominant scorer who could take over in ways, KG couldnt or wouldnt. Skill wise, KG is a big time underachiever, scoring wise. A guy with his skillset, size and athleticism shouldve been avg 25.plus and peaking in the high 20'.s..

This some neg worthy shyt..

KG was a different beast and a different animal at the same time :childplease:

I don't think he's just body type. That mid-range turnaround was automatic. KG just wasn't the type that was going to demand the ball and go for 30 on the regular. He was too team oriented. I think he left a lot of points on the table just cause he didn't have that mindset.
