103404, but if he never develops a jumper, he won't be better than Barnes

which is what this post is all about to begin with, right?


MKG is a solid defender. I watched the youtube link floating around of him guarding Bron - he did as well as to be expected early in that game. Teams always need a guy with his length who can defend.


but as it stands today Barnes is the better player not because of ppg/apg lines; He's a more complete player than MKG right today.


Barnes is a MUCH better shooter


his bball IQ is higher. He understands how to fit into a system.


more athletic


defense is about equal - could go either way there.



I could go into stuff like the lower assist to turnover ratio thing too, but imma chill
