MKG might have mroe upside but if Barnes learns how to create his own shot he could be an issue

....how the fukk does Harrison Barnes average the same amount of points as a very young MKG with a broken jumper and on the shyttiest team in the league? Barnes is fukking
Barnes is lucky when he gets a opportunity to shoot on that team. He's probably the 4th or 5th scoring option.
Honestly if they both switched teams it would allow them to do what they do best. If Barnes was in Charlotte the offense would be run through him and Kemba. He would have a lot more chances to shine. Between Curry and Thompson, Barnes is lucky to get a shot.
MKG would be great in GS. It would allow him to do pretty much the same thing he did at UK. With Curry and Thompson spacing the floor, he could attack the basket, go for put backs, shyt like that.
Charlotte needs Barnes' scoring more than they need a defensive/hustle guy. GS could really use a defensive/hustle type nikka like MKG.
true.
interesting point
good post breh.
but would you really want Barnes to be playing for the Bobcats? Seems like all my fav KY players keep going to terrible progression halting franchises because they're always drafted so high

No
I feel your pain on that shyt too breh. I thank the basketball gods everyday that the year Minnesota picked 10 PG's in the 1st round, Ty Lawson was the one they traded

Because Barnes is the 4th option on a playoff team and has his minutes reduced to allow Jack to be on the floor which moves Klay to the 3 spot. Barnes would average much more on a shytty team like Charlotte where he would be the 1st or 2nd option offensively. Barnes plays with Lee,Thompson,Curry. What offensive weapons do MKG play with?

How does he produce better numbers when he'd get less shots and minutes?
I think MKG would fit better in GS system, he is more of a defense specialist, Barnes doesn't fit well there to me because he can't really share the offense with Curry and Klay, in Charlotte I feel as if he can do what he wants if he was on that team.

You could be right about that. However as of late teams have been blitzing Steph and Barnes has been eating good off of it. If they keep giving Steph so much attention Barnes will get more shots. But in an ideal world they would swap teams because Barnes would thrive more as a 1st or 2nd option while MKG was at his best when he wasn't a top 3 option. I still say Barnes will have the better career. People always talk about how guys put up good stats on bad teams, MKG can't even do that as a rook. Barnes would average at least 15 in Charlotte.

Barnes is and will be better offensively, MKG will be a better defender,rebounder etc.
MKG = Shawn Marion type of player
Barnes = Richard Jefferson type of player

I do. Still think Barnes has a higher ceiling than that.
