For some reason, some of ya'll are having a problem seeing the forest through the trees. Somehow youv'e blindly taken a few stats that were posted and warped this thread into another feeble attempt to elevate or critisize one player vs. another. The simple fact is BOTH players numbers undeniably point out that they have been playing horrible ball. Once again some of the fans who cheer for a player rather than the Magic , somehow have "proved" their point.. what they lack in common sense, they make up for with unabashed idolization of a player. Our Pg's efficiency ratings are in the dump, and that is assuming everyone is on the level playing field, adjusted for 48 mins of play.
NBA Guards Eff. Ratings
Now take out the likes of Bryants, Carters, Martins ,Redds etc... (all the pure shooting guards) that leaves us with Carlos ranking in at 38th and Jameer at 41st. - remember thats in an adjusted format for 48 minutes per, meaning that this is if everyone started and played all game. By looking at the numbers, this tells us that neither of our guards are capable of playing up to the standards of an average starter in the league - not Carlos, not Jameer. It also goes to show that about a third of the second stringers would make a better starter than Carlos or Jameer.
So I dont care who who like, who represents your culture and people, who you think should be starting or anything of the sorts - both these guys stink.
