Paul George is career 43% and 35.8% from 3

Rudy Gay is career 45% and 34.3% from 3

I guess they're about even
 
We talking about overall not just 3s Paul George just got on the scene....what's the stats from midrange on out.....
 
from what i remember in the playoffs memphis could have used rudy down the stretch in games.  conley is not someone u want trying to take over a game
 
Bennett reminds me of LJ.

I'm pretty sure the ping pong ball lottery is getting televised this year, or shown on the web
I don't see that, just because I don't see half the explosiveness/athleticism that Johnson had. Offensively, Bennett more reminds me of an Al Harrington type guy.. style of play included.

Well you're off there, Bennett is very explosive and athletic which is surprising because he's definitely fat too :lol

Bennett plays alot bigger than Al ever did.

He has some bully in him on the block.

Having those former Gay possessions re-distributed to Conley, Gasol, Z-Bo and Bayless >>> Gay shooting 20 footers

To the degree that Larry Johnson was or even close to it? I don't think so

How much have you watched Bennett? Honest question because he's definitely close, he's a freak.
Just his Youtube highlights... and the pre-season game last night where I know he was coming off injury and battling conditioning issues...

Larry Johnson was an animal both in college and the pros.. almost like a man among boys athletically.. I don't know if I ever see Bennett being a man amongst boys...

Bennett was the same type of animal at the same college LJ went to and was compared to him nonstop so I don't see what you're getting at, you'll see in due time though.
 
We already went through this bennett= milsap
Millsap doesn't have the ball skills (handle/face up/jump shot) that Bennett has. Their styles of play are completely different. Millsap is a rugged, blue collar, dirty work type guy where as Bennett has some skills to go along with his size. 

Not sure who will end up having the better career though

Honestly, I think Millsap has outgrown that "rugged, blue collar, dirty work" rep. He's developed a lot of skills over the years.
 
Yea Milsap got game now, he's definitely a product of his own hard work

I don't think it'll evolve to much more than it is now, and Bennett is already advanced in those areas compared to Millsap. Point being, their styles of play are completely different. You won't see Millsap shoot too many threes. Or play small forward

Again though, I really like Millsap and I wouldn't say Bennett is destined to have a better career than Millsap.
