Non injured??? Leon was a top prospect before he first got injured.   We never seen him at his prime.  Trouble is he has got injured a lot.

I would take Bass.   I live in the real world.

Exactly. Love Powe, but we haven't seen the 2008 Powe since, well, 2008.  That was 4 years ago.  I'll go with Bass.

didn't Powe first blow out his knee well still in high school? i remember reading an article about him in the globe in maybe 08 when we were playing at Golden State, he was an above the rim player before injuries. probably most like a cross between Josh Smith and Paul Milsap

I mentioned defense a while ago, so I'll just ask outright, who is the better defender and how much weight does defense have in your calculation of who is better?

Powe.

Gotta feel bad for Leon. Talk about a guy whole actually earned his pay check and was on the cusp of getting some descent money, only to get injured again and have to start from square one. So many crappy player with big pay checks who are just hurting team and don't deserve even half of what they make. Leon was the opposite.

Sadly gotta take a Bass now, but Powe was great...

Leon Powe reminded me of Paul Silas the way he went off on the boards. So I pick Leon Powe.
