Bargnani Vs Wang ZhiZhi 

Post#1 » by Jaykoolzboy » Thu Apr 17, 2008 9:05 pm

Both 7"1 with descent range
Both afraid of playing in the paint
Both terrible rebounder for their size
Both horrible defender for their size
Both relatively quick for their size
Both "so called" big man with great skill
Both first ever of something from their country. (Bargnani #1 pick , Wang ZhiZhi first Chinese player)
Both compared to Dirk of the Mavs somewhere during their career

Last but not least, Both sucks.


My question is that assume Wang ZhiZhi is in his early 20s , who would you prefer if you have to choose one of them with your first pick.

Well, Bargnani is the better version of Wang ZhiZhi where they'sve been overrated by medias due to their touches and size.


Are you just making the comparison because it seems pretty clear there is only one answer. You should be comparing Bargnani to Dirk Nowitzki and Rasho Nesterovic.

I'm very disappointed to see the comparison. 2 years ago who would have thought it would come to this...

these are the type of threads that make this PC board painful to visit.

Bargnani is having what is considered by anyone who follows basketball a very bad year. He has more points in this very bad year than Wang did in his entire career.

Anybody who thinks Wang is a more skilled player is blind. Anybody who thinks any player in this thread deserves to be compared to Rasho is more blind.

Wang used to make Yao his bitch in China.

Wang > Yao
Yao > Bargnani

Wang > Bargnani

When ZhiZhi comes 2nd in rookie of the year voting, makes 1st team all rookie, leads his team in 3 of the most important games in franchise history etc. then you might have some sort of an arguement.

At least do some research before you start acting like a smart ass, jeez.

LOL at second in rookie of the year voting. While true, he recieved a grand total of 1 vote from his hometown play by play guy.

I once scored 36 points with Wang Zhi Zhi in the terrible game I call NBA Live..

I don't know about skills..but it's close enough for me to give the nod to Wang, simply because his name is MUCH cooler..Wang ZhiZhi might be the coolest name in NBA history..

does anybody know where I can find a jersey of his?..

he's also so ugly, that it becomes cute..

I like the Raptors too, so I wanted to see Bargnani do well..it's an embarrassment..it's gotten to the point to when I watch a Raps game, I am surprised when Bargnani makes a shot..

I'm not that you understand how ROY voting works. Roy received 638 points. Bargnani received 264 points. The other 10 players receiving votes had 250 points...combined. It's a pretty safe bet that Bargnani received support from more than just Swirsky.

I'd rather have neither. Both are soft jumpshooting pansies.
