tito maddux is better then them all because he scored that one bucket in preseason that put him over the top.
The answer is big man Bryant (Big Country) Reeves. The only player with his jersey retired for the Memphis Girlzzlies.
What kind of stupid thread is this? It's not even close. First, LF only played 7 seasons while OP played 15. OP has a higher career average in points, blocks, steals and rebounds and is within 0.10 of LF in assists. LF's best season was his rookie year and he slowly faded to oblivion after that. OP's best year was his 11th year capping a 4 year run of scoring averages above 10.8. In 93-94, OP averaged a double-double... 11.6 ppg and 11.9 rpg. The best LF ever did was his rookie year... 9.5 ppg and 4.5 rpg. LF reached the playoffs six years and each time his averages were way below his seasonal averages. His career playoff numbers are: 1.7 ppg and 1.3 rpg. OP also reached the playoffs six times and averaged 6.4 ppg and 6.0 rpg with his best performance coming in 1996 with Sacto where he averaged 13.8 ppg, 12 rpg, and shot an incredible 100% from behind the arc. (OK, it was 1 for 1.) OP finished in the Top Ten at least once in the following categories: Games FG% Offensive Rebounds RPG Personal fouls LF never made the top ten in anything. The evidence is clear: Olden Polynice was substantially better then Lawrence Funderburke. Better titles for this thread: Who's Better: Olden Polynice or Andrew DeClercq or Who's Better: Lawrence Funderburke or Ed Pinckney (Seriously though, if you've followed the game at all over the years, it was obvious OP was significantly better than LF without looking up any stats. Plus, he's a UVa man... Wahoowa!)
http://www.nba.com/playerfile/clarence_weatherspoon/index.html Clarence Weatherspoon's career average for points was 11.5 and 7.5 for rebounds. Look at his stats early on in his career. He was putting up 18 points a game, while bringing down 10 rebounds. His first five years were pretty solid.
