WTF are you talking about? Baron played T-Mac even & the Hornets beat the Magic b/c the Hornets' role players were relatively better than the Magic's role players. I brought up the individual performances b/c we are talking about whether or not Baron Davis was as good as another individual, Russy.

Except Westbrook going a 100mph doesn't me shyt if he doesn't put it to good use. His impact on the game defensively is miniscule even though he has all the tools & motor to be a terror on the defense. He also has the ability to get into the paint whenever he wants but he rather jack up shots from outside the paint. Basically, he isn't channeling his intensity & putting it to good use but rather he is actually hurting his team by being reckless. Baron was a lazy muphucka but when he turned it up he was just as hard to deal w/ as Russy & he actually had a higher Bball IQ than Russy will ever possess.
