BRHornet, don't let foolish pride cloud your judgment. You normally use sound logic. Blair is a great rebounder. Most everyone would take Blair over Thornton.
yea and on a per minute basis Thornton is averaging over 20 points a game and only 3 less rebounds per game than Blair. only 3 less!

Per 48 so is Blair.On a per 48 basis, it's 11 less.and only 3 less rebounds per game than Blair. only 3 less!
lol son you guys are the ones who need to take the homer / beer goggles off. Thornton does pretty much everything better than Blair. the ONLY thing Blair has Thornton beat on is rebounding and not by that much when you break it down per minute. regardless, you guys claim that Blair is such a beast at rebounding, then it is pretty pathetic that a 6'4 guard is only 3 rebounds behind him.
Your numbers are wrong.
LMAO at you twisting the stats! son we are going by the STANDARD per 36 minutes. regardless it doesn't matter how you try to twist the stats around, Thornton does everything better aside from rebounding.
lmao son what's next? .... "but but but Blair averages 11 rebounds per game on Thursdays!!!"
no they are not. you guys are just trying to twist the stats in favor of Blair. the standard per minute rule is based on 36 minutes. I didn't make that up, go look at professional statistic sites. but like I said it doesn't matter either way. totals, per game, per 36 minutes, Thornton is better in nearly every stat. here are some links since my numbers are "wrong" according to you.

The NBA lists it per 48. Take it up with them.
He doesn't block better than Blair.regardless it doesn't matter how you try to twist the stats around, Thornton does everything better aside from rebounding.
Next you'll be saying Thornton blocks better than Blair -- oh, wait. You already said that.lmao son what's next? .... "but but but Blair averages 11 rebounds per game on Thursdays!!!"
Blair Per 36:
56% FG, 15.4 PTS, 12.4 REB, 1.4 AST, 1.2 STL. 1.1 BLK, 2.6 TO's
Thornton Per 36:
45% FG, 20.1 PTS, 4.1 REB, 1.7 AST, 1.1 STL, .2 BLK, 1.4 TO's
So Blair shoots better, kills him on the boards, about the same on ast, better steals and more blocks.
ROTFLMAO!!! son go look at the links I provided. the standard rule of thumb is based on per game stats, and if you break it down to minutes it is based on per 36 minutes.The NBA lists it per 48. Take it up with them.
He doesn't block better than Blair.
Next you'll be saying Thornton blocks better than Blair -- oh, wait. You already said that.
oh and LOL ... your "beast" Blair only has .4 more rebounds than Thornton per game! so impressive! Thornton will have the better career because he is actually a hard worker and takes care of himself. Blair is fat and will probably eat himself out of the NBA by the time he is 25.
That can't be true. BRWhiteGuy45 said Thornton was a better shot blocker than Blair!
The link you posted BR shows the PER 36 numbers I posted. I don't know where you are getting your PER 36 stats from.
son I would hope to God that a power foward has a better field goal percentage than a shooting guard! son why don't you expose the REAL stats which are PER GAME? not this "per 36 minutes" or "only Thursday night game" stats!
Look at the NBA site. Which site is run by the NBA?
So why do you run away from the per 36 stats in this case? Because you are twisting the numbers.oh and LOL ... your "beast" Blair only has .4 more rebounds than Thornton per game! so impressive!
You said Thornton is a better shot blocker than Blair.Thornton will have the better career because he is actually a hard worker and takes care of himself. Blair is fat and will probably eat himself out of the NBA by the time he is 25.
son post the PER GAME stats. those are the REAL numbers. anyways, you act as if Blair has incredible numbers per 36 ... the dude turns the ball over more than Deron Williams!
Sons, you were the one arguing for PER 36 minute stats.
But you said Thornton does everything better than Blair except rebound.
Were you lying?
Yes or no.
Blair is a good player, but doesn't take care of himself and is TERRIBLY overweight. LOL at Spurs fans thinking this enchilada eating blimp is the best rookie in the NBA! Thornton will go on to be an all star shooting guard will Blair will be beasting it up at the all you can eat buffet lines!
Because if you are comparing players, it is fair to have them on an equal playing field. PER minute stats do that to a large degree. If you take it in context.
No one thinks he is the best rookie, but he is clearly better than Thornton.
son God forbid I forgot about blocks! but LOL at you acting as if Blair is a good shot blocker. he is PATHETIC at blocking shots for a power forward. he only averages 0.5 blocks per game which is only .4 more than Thornton LOL
take your homer goggles off face. seriously grow a set.
Thornton is MUCH better than Blair. LOL at some of you acting like its impressive for a big, fat, black man to be able to out rebound a 6'4 shooting guard!!!
Not terribly anymore.
He's up there.LOL at Spurs fans thinking this enchilada eating blimp is the best rookie in the NBA!
Sorry he made your big men look like pansies. He does that a lot. I can understand your whining about him, son, but try to be a man.Thornton will go on to be an all star shooting guard will Blair will be beasting it up at the all you can eat buffet lines!
That's quite a lot better.
He's also better from the filed, so you lied twice.
