Same guy that said Eric B was better and didn't have the balls to respond to my post. Stop hating and tell my how EB is better then Wall. I'll wait while you decide to man up or not.

He can score better and is better defensively. Also more athletic and miles ahead when it comes to rebounding.

Wall is a better passer though.
 
I'm taking last weeks rondo > wall. I'm still the conductor in the john wall is overrated train. If he's your best player, u won't get far.

Russ could turn the Slowest paced team in the League into a fast pace Fast Break type team. Don't believe watch the Memphis game tomorrow.

His long rebounds when he's 1 on 2 or 3 or 4 without a single pass forces any team to run when Russ' team is still heading up court and Defense turned Offense are now headed the other way with that long rebound.

I I guarantee 3/4 of Russ' 20 shots came either 5 seconds into the shot clock, without a single pass or from a outmanned offense vs defense position.

Get Presti on the phone and I'll help negotiate the D'Lo for Russ swap. Won't even charge an agent fee.

Better defensively? So Wall being 8th in blocks and 3rd in steals isn't considered defense in your world? Miles ahead in rebounding? Wall at 3 per and Eric at 4. Yep that "miles" ahead. The fact you said Eric is more athletic tells me all I need to know.

BTW these first 10 games or so are the only time in his career Eric has averaged more points then Wall. 10 games of Eric averaging more makes him a better scorer then a player who's out scored him on average every single year. Your whole argument is laughable. HA HA HA

10 games of anything isn't that special unless it's Triple Doubles.

So the whole 8th in blocks and 3rd in steals can be looked at the same way as Bled averaging more points than Wall over 10

Pull up steals and blocks in ANY SEASON Eric isn't better then Wall. I'll leave this here and let the thread dive deeper into the numbers if they want with advanced metrics.

What are those stats trying to prove?

You realize Bledsoe wasn't getting starting minutes until the last few seasons, right?

If you look at their per 36 and steal and block percentages, they're actually neck and neck the past few seasons. Same with scoring... although Wall has the clear advantage with assists.

Wall is better than Bledsoe, of course.

I know he wasn't. If I go back it's not fair. If I only go off 10 games it's still not fair. Im basically being boxed in from making a case at all.
 
Wall is better than Bledsoe. Clearly. It's not an argument. Idk why Bowb4me is taking the bait :lol:.

However, when Bledsoe decides to lock in on defense, he's right there with Wall on that end.

Bledsoe's last year with that Clips, he averaged 1.4 Spg and 0.7 Bpg in only 20 MINUTES a game.

That's insane. Especially for a 6'1 PG who was coming off the bench as the 7th man. Bledsoe used to guard guys 94ft. Straight hounding ball handlers. But he played in spurts, so he had more energy.

Haven't had a chance to watch PHX this year. I'll check him out to see if he's trying again.

Russ 5-20 and 2-10 from 3.

Only soul
5-20 FG and 2-10 3pt like it's nothing.

Only soul he's taking is his Teams.

Wavy hit it on the head. Pass only for assists. Rebound out of position(he does this so he can push the floor fast to his next shot 1 on 4 with 22 seconds left on the shotclock)

Amen!

I mean you get to watch him everyday. So you see it. Wesbrook is amazing. Top 10 player. Offensive force.

But his box score numbers can definitely be misleading and harmful to the team's schemes at times.
 
I don't think its too crazy to think Bledsoe is more athletic than Wall. After seeing all your posts Im convinced that you only look at box scores lol.

Really don't give a damn what you think. Athletic ability is speed, jumping, strength and things of that nature. If you think Eric is faster, jumps higher and all that more power to you.
 
Bledsoe is stronger cause he has those arms and chest no romo but wall is more athletic , wall came into the league jumpin out the gym ... The ONLY gripe i have with wall after those numbers were posted is why hasnt he improved at all except for 2 more assists a game ....
 
Offensive linemen / defensive tackles = strong

Defensive backs / wide recievers = athletic

Just to help some people understand the difference
 
Im 5'11 and weigh a good 230 lbs of taco bell and junk food , im "stronger" than most my homies , but most my homies are more athletic ...i can continue

And I don't give a damn that you don't give a damn what I think.

I didn't say ebled is more athletic but I wouldn't think someone is crazy if they thought so. I actually think its really close and it would be hard for me to pinpoint which guy is more athletic.

John wall measured a 39" vertical at his predraft combine. It would be foolish to think ebled jumps anything lower than 40". End to end speed, I would say wall is faster with the ball but I think ebled has a faster and more powerful first step. He's definitely stronger than Wall.
 
Ebled career averages 25 mins but averages 1.4 steals and .5 blocks

Wall career averages 36 mins but 1.7 steals and .6 blocks


How much more athletic is wall to bledoe to you? Are they even in the same ball park?

Nice post frisco.

Wall is a better player if he has pieces around himself to his game pace and passing ability. Other than that I'm not taking him over Bledsoe.

There is a reason why Wall is being paid the same as Reggie Jax.

Put Bledsoe on the Wizards and they're shining right now.

Bledsoe never got the same amount of minutes as wall and the Suns always play 2 PGs. Dragon and Bledsoe then you have Knight and Bledsoe.

Even if y'all think Wall is better that's fine and I understand the points being brought up, but this dude hasn't improved in EVER. He needs to be more aggressive he doesn't have that killer instinct in him. That drive is something I don't see in him to consider him better.

By the end of the season y'all will recognize whose better.


- peace
