    So Yao is BOTH Rik Smits AND Dale Davis?

    The Pacers we are not, we are the Lakers of the 80s due to the high number of black players.

    ment
    scola~DD

    When we had landry he was like AD.

    Maybe lowry can become like mjax, and ariza grows into a jalen rose role.

    Nah, the Pacers are built like the Pacers.

    Troy Murphy = Rik Smits

    Danny Granger = Jalen Rose

    Roy Hibbert = Dale Davis

    Luther Head = Reggie

    I was thinking something similar actually when we got Kevin Martin. Mainly due to the asinine amount of Yao-Smits comparisons during Yao's career, and similarities between Martin and Miller's game.

    But quite frankly, that's where the comparisons end. The Antonio and Dale Davis are bruisers that Scola/Hill/whatever cannot even begin to match. Mark Jackson's only modern comparison maybe Jason Kidd, but he was quite unique. And IIRC their SF was McKey, whom I have no more recollection of so I don't know if Shane/Ariza/Cbud compares.

    I actually agree but you need to dig a bit deeper then just 3 guys...

    Yao(Post Injury) - Smits
    Scola - Dale Davis
    Ariza - Derrick McKey
    Martin - Reggie Miller
    Brooks(Stretching it honestly) - Jackson

    Antonio Davis - Chuck Hayes
    Bryon Scott - Chase Budinger
    Sam Mitchell - Shane Battier
    Haywoode Workman - Kyle Lowery

    It's not that far off.
