    If course not but I also never said Cam is a better finisher only because he is stronger right?

    You can compare their stats man Cam is better, not to mention leading the non lotto prospects to the title game while being younger than Green.

    He has talent: NBA size, shooting abilities, handles and a finisher. I do not think KPJ is going to finish the season with the Rockets, he is going to play this season.

    Nah there are also other factors like being bigger and more physical than Green at the same age.

    When is half a year a year younger? They both joined the NBA a year after graduating highschool. Are you saying Green flunked a grease or Whitmore skipped a grade?

    When is saying he is younger suddenly a year younger? The post you are quoting is right there why don't you read it first?

    So bigger and stronger. "physical" would be another way of saying stronger or it's an effect of being stronger.

    So ya as long as anyone is bigger and stronger they are a better finisher. So he's probably going to be a better finisher than players like Ja.

    When it's half a year. Their age has no factor in play. Both graduated highschool at 18, did something for one year in between high school and the NBA and then joined the NBA

    Is Green a better finisher than Ja? Cuz all my comparisons are only between Green and Cam.

    No. I'm asking does someone being bigger and stronger automatically make one a better finisher?

    Is Cam going to be a better finisher than Kyrie?

    I was responding on the physical build at age 19.

    I don’t think he’s on Ant’s level in all elements, but he’s at least in the right stratosphere when it comes to physicality and explosiveness.

    So is Cam younger yes or no? You keep trying to lie and dig verbal pits for me but now you straight up lying lol.

    So if somebody is born January and the other is born Aug in the same year you think they are the exact same age?

    If they have the same skills obviously someone bigger and stronger makes the guy a better finisher.

    Do Cam and Kyrie have the same skills?

    Is Cam younger now? Wtf do you think? Why even ask that? I thought you were comparing them at the "same stage"?

    I wonder if the knee injury affected his growth? Is that possible if you injure your knee as a teenager like he did?

    Yeah at the same stage not the same age.

    Whats the age of Cam when he first entered SL and what's the age of Green when he first played in SL?

    That is my point. Green entered the league with more craft, wiggle, vertical explosion and softer touch around the rim.

    So you could play this game with someone being 2 days apart technically right?
