    Who is the better player between the two?

    Joe Johnson's 09-10 Stats

    21.3 pts, 4.9 assists, 4.6 rebs, 45% FG

    Brandon Roy's 09-10 Stats

    21.5 pts, 4.7 assists, 4.4 rebs, 47%


    Both led their teams to the playoffs.

    But overall, who is better player?

    I like B-Roy, but Joe cant take over games too, didn't you see him against the celtics 2 years ago, he single handedly beat the Celtics in their home games.

    I gotta go with Roy. Beyond physical attributes, Roy seems like a better teammate. Johnson, to me at least, comes off as a "I'm going to get mine" player while Roy seems more likely to be OK with not scoring as long as the Blazers win.

    I voted Roy, though I'm not a huge fan right now. Roy dominates the ball a little much for my liking, but I love his late game ability.

    Johnson is a solid player but not worth his contract IMO.

    "I want the ball a lot more," Roy said. "I want to be maximized every game," "That's a position that I'm strong with, with the basketball, and I'm extremely confident with it."

    Brandon Roy, but not because I'm biased and he's my favorite player.


    But because he can take over a game. He's the closer, he's the goto guy at the end of the game, and he's the leader of the team.

    Now I'm not saying Joe Johnson can't take over, but I just don't see Joe Johnson being a vocal leader.

    joe johnson is one of the most overrated players in the NBA. i've never seen a star player shrinks more in the playoffs than he does.

    PER favored Roy last year. Box score stats are pretty similar except one area -- Roy got the free throw line almost twice as frequently. That made him a more efficient scorer.

    Well in my fantasy league I picked Johnson only because Roy can't stay healthy. Roy is the better player, but that don't mean S@@t if you can't stay on the floor.

    ROY without a doubt, he puts up those stats on a slower paced team with more efficiency
