Sam Cassell or Chauncey Billups? who had a better career?

[KingJudah2]

Billups had a much better peak. Leader/point man on a team with no superstars. Sam had the goat center and HOF swingman Clyde the glide and Rudy T Chauncey aint have that

If Sam is getting the most props in here (and I voted for him) why is Chauncey leading the poll?

To me Sam was easily the better player, but Billups had the better career. Billups was a pure PG, one that could orchestrate an offense, and lock down on defense. Bu he couldn't shoot, really had horrible court vision, not that great of a passer..all of the reasons he was a journeyman...He just was a good leader. Cassell alien lookin mofo would just torch you, then torch you some more. His slow a$$ got to any spot he wanted and did whatever he wanted. He's the reason we lost in the finals, not Starks.

BTW Billups best statistically year was playing along side Melo, for the haters. And I don't even have to look it up

Sheed was a superstar, and Rip was good for 20 wherever he played. Matter of fact, Sheed was the player that took them over the top, not Billups

Chauncy ain't never inspired any rap bars so Sam >

And if I dont sell, and plans should fail, man it'd get ugly like Sam Cassell

Billups for me. Used to be in the barber shop arguing about his impact and being one of the top guards in the league during his prime. He was a leader man.

All of this is disrespectful. And just untrue. Billups was great at all of that. I can tell you never really watched the nikka play. Wasn't just leadership. He was skilled, savvy, and smooth. His clutchness is overstated but he's very underrated as an overall basketball player.

Both Chauncey and Sam were great. Couple of my favorite players low-key.

nikkas really in here talking about Billups couldn't shoot

They call him Mr Big Shot, ffs

Cassell had the better career it took Billups a long time to figure out how to play pg
Cassell was good from day one.

Sheed a superstar? You must be 20 years old B

I watched him play on EVERY team from C's, Tor, Denver 2x, Min...he couldn't shoot. I did say he was a great leader. He could orchestrate the offense and run a team, but he wasn't great at anything offensively. He was failing as a NBA PG and they used him as a combo on a couple of those teams. When I say court vision, I'm talking about from exceptional passing...seeing a man out the corner from the other side of the court. I think he only has 2 seasons over 7 apg. One season in Det when he was at 18 & 8, but he was good for about 14 & 5 regularly....which is pretty average for a starting PG. I still think he was a great leader. But let's be real, he overachieved.

did this dumbass just say Billups couldn't shoot?

Billups was regularly under 42% FG. I don't even have to look this up. That's a good shooter? He was horrible. His jumper was on Kidd status...Brevin Knight status... He could bully his way to spots, and was big enough to shoot over people but bricked a lot. Hitting some clutch shots doesn't change dude being at 40% on FGs.

Sheed a superstar? You must be 20 years old B

Sheed was unguardable. Period. Ask KG, Duncan, Webb, Dirk, JO, Reef, Dyess..none of them could guard Sheed, especially on the blocks. That's a superstar in my book. I said in every thread about overrated/underrated that he and Manu are the 2 GOATs-with-the-worst-Stats
