You be the judge.

Well if you are going to post stats at least get them right.  From NBA.com or ESPN.com - PP shot 37% FG and 27% from 3 point.  He only averaged 5.7 boards and he averaged over 5 turn overs a game in the NYK series. 

He had the same problem handling the ball as Manu.  They are both getting long in the tooth, and will both be retired in a year or two.

that was in the post season, which again is very comparable to what Manu is doing, if not worse.

The previous stats are from regular season.

Yeah, I realized that after I posted it.  I edited my response.  No one was even talking about who was better anyways.  Just that PP couldn't hold onto the ball at all in the playoffs.

Paul Pierce = Ginobli

same thing

yep. said the same thing last night. The [dang] spurs had it won and leonards missed FT blew it. FT's are sooooooo important.

Nah.  That loss is all on Pop.  I mean, think of it this way.  Would Doc EVER take KG off the floor at the end of the 4th as long as Bosh was still out there?  And if Doc did take Rondo off for defensive purposes in OT, is there ANY way he doesn't call time out to make sure and get Rondo back in for a final play?
