Similar numbers across the board, close in age and experience. Who's better and why?

Horford, and whoever says otherwise should be checked into a mental institution.

Horford is bigger.

Gotta go with size here when other things are close.

As much as I love Millsap, I agree with this. When two players are that similar, go with the bigger player. You can't teach size.

Glad you thought it was dumb. Feel free to go make your own thread, then. Like I said, look at their numbers. They are almost identical. How about explaining WHY it's so dumb, since numbers don't tell everything.........

And for the rest of the one word responders, umm, can you back any of that up with a reason maybe?

It's hard to say, because I feel like Horford is living a lot off of his hype and potential right now. He didn't improve much from his rookie season. On the other hand Millsap has improved a ton and had a lot greater impact on a better team.

However, Horford's been forced to play out of position and I think you put him in Millsap's situation he'd be doing better. So Ill go with Al.

Depends on the teams needs. I'm guessing most go with Al though...
