Current Carmelo Anthony vs Prime Antoine Walker in today's NBA

[Kool Boy]

It'd be tough but I think Antoine Walker with today's softer rules would be the better player. Walker was a better playmaker and in his priming he was a very pure scorer too. Antoine Walker in todays NBA would avg 24/8/6 on 45/38/70 no doubt

So in his best season he averaged 23 PPG on 41% from the field but now all of a sudden he'd average 45% on the same volume? Okay

Toine would love the 3 point shot even more and abandon his post game. That's one of the problems those celtics teams had in 2001, Toine had a solid post game but refused to use it.

Melo is a much better shooter than 'Toine was from just about anywhere on the floor. Also Walker had bad knees that killed any kind of jumping ability.

He had skills but short arms and no lift. That's why Kenyon Martin shut him down. Even if he tried to post more he was never going to be an efficient scorer.
