Okay, inside scoring - you are probably right. I could say more on this, but that's all you claimed and I'd have to agree with you. Sorry.
But I completely disagree on the rebounding issue, as I said. Al competed with undersized or non-rebounding forwards (Ryan Gomes, Craig Smith, Antoine Walker, Corey Brewer) and small guards who are poor rebounders (McCants, Telfair, Foye, Jaric) for boards. Obviously his rebounding numbers will look higher than KG's, who competed with a true center (Perk or PJ or Pollard), one of the better rebounding small forwards in the league (Pierce), and guards who are quality rebounders (Rondo and Ray) for boards. Two years ago in Minnesota, when he was competing with nobody, KG averaged almost 13 boards a game, more than Al did this past season. KG is one of the best rebounders of the past decade. AL is a good rebounder, but nowhere near KG's class yet.
And Pierce was our number one option on offense, but KG was the guy people looked to take out of the game.
I like your general analysis, Tim, but there's no way Al Jefferson is a better rebounder than Kevin Garnett.
As for the comments about people saying we would have won with Al instead of KG, I don't mean to point it at you, maybe you never actually said that, but a couple of people gave posts making that exact claim. If those are not your feelings, I apologize for lumping you in with that.
