    we shouldn't be worried about who's better, we're lucky we have them both on the same team, i mean, when all our players are healthy we can do some seriouos damage. We got weapons

    I'm so glad some posters actually watch the games instead of parroting Jeff Van Gundy. The results of this pool are as laughable as they were predictable.

    I of course agree with that. It is not like Shane sucks on defense, especially 1 on 1. Ron is just better, stronger...and probably quicker. Btw does it make any difference? We have BOTH of those guys :)

    no, as much as artest gets props across the league, battier doesn't just the same. they play differently, but i think as much as artest is effective, so is battier if not more. he definitely plays smarter on the defensive side, no argument there.
