What does their height have to do with anything?

One is better than the other, no amount of qualifiers or excuses can change that FACT.

:what:

when it comes to rebounding height is one of the single most important factors...you have to be relative when comparing players separated 4-5 inches apart..its not rocket science

We're pretty much arguing in circles. At age 23, both Kobe and KD are top 5, All-Star, 1st Team type players capable of taking over games and scoring large amounts of points.

They go about it differently but we're talking small differences in the large scheme of things to separate their talent levels.

Kobe in 2003 averaged 7 rebounds a game and he is 6'6

Durant in 2012 averaged 8 rebounds a game and he is 6'11.

:what:

But Durant is the better rebounder?

:skip: So cause kobe went from 5- 7 one year and went back to 5 that makes him a better rebounder? :dead:

does basic math confuse you? if you have 2 guys at the same position, and 1 shoots 50% and the other shoots 47% over his career, its definitive who is the better shooter. if one has more rebounds per game than the other, over the course of their career, they are the better rebounder. it couldnt be more simple. we holding height against guys now to prop up your declining hero?
