To be fair, that covert war was with Basa but you jumped all in my post trying to OctavioPaz my intent.
Yes, you don't blindly hate UNC. My statement was a sarcastic joke. Yet still, this post ain't about who was right pre-pro ball. It's a retroactive look back and call to carpet of who's had the better career.
Barnes.
Yes, MKG had injuries but even before the injuries, he didn't look 'that' promising. And he tore a labrum and had a stress fracture in his foot. He has fully healed from both but never got any better. Why?

Fair enough.

And since he's been healthy (even played 81 and 74 games in back to back seasons) he hasn't sniffed being better than Barnes. He's actually regressing.
