Message: [QUOTE="Dogdude, post: 4935916, member: 13168"] The Bird/Magic comparison is very apt here. It's often been said that that rivalry saved the NBA, and I think it's obvious that the Paige/Clark comparison is helping elevate women's basketball to levels not seen before, and will hopefully grow from further. It's not who is actually better that drives the sport, it's the fun of the debate that makes the difference. You can't debate who scored the most points, but you can debate things like who had the greater influence on the game during their time, Kareem or Wilt. Absolutes are no fun, it's the abstracts that create the buzz that brings in the viewers. [/QUOTE]
