ESPECIALLY in this era? K-Mart actually developed a semi respectable mid-range game. There is no doubt he was the better offensive player of the two and still held his own on defense.
You guys are exposing yourself something serious
No, he was not without a doubt the better offensive player. Noah was a far better passer (career high, 5.5 assists for Noah, 2.6 assists for Martin), offensive rebounder (career high, 4.3 offensive boards for Noah, 3.0 for Martin), Martin didn't bring the ball up or push the break like Noah, he didn't handle the ball like Noah. Noah impacted the game offensively past scoring, also K-Mart never had a semi respectable midrange game, he was never a shooter. I know you a Knicks fan, K-Mart never shot outside the paint as a Knick. K-Mart was more athletic and a superior finisher at the basket, a great P&R guy, who could get put back dunks, and make the occasional jump hook, he had Kidd feeding him the ball in his best scoring seasons, dude wasn't scoring like that in Denver, and was never a guy who you could run an offensive through or a go-to guy. Don't revise history.
Joakim is also the better shooter from midrange and from the FT line, Martin took more threes...
'14 Jo: 65 of 159 | 41% from 16 feet to the three point line
'04 K-Mart: 78 of 204 | 38% from 16 feet to the three point line
In most seasons K-Mart shot in the mid-30's from midrange, neither were strong midrange shooters and both had broken forms.
Jo: Peak 75% from FT line, career 70% from FT line
K-Mart: Peak 71% from FT line, career 63% from FT line
