Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 4354884, member: 2117"] Eye test is a big part of it--Stewart's just a more versatile and well rounded player IMO. Rebounds/FG% will naturally be higher considering A'ja is primarily in the post where Stewart plays all over. Statistics overall are pretty equivalent, with each player have a slight lead in different areas. Both are cream of the crop. And Vegas has a much more balanced complete offense than Seattle does. They have 5 double digit scorers and all are shooting well from the floor (45% and up). Plum is a legitimate MVP candidate, and Jackie Young/Chelsea Gray are also All-WNBA candidates. Plus Hamby is solid in her role. For Seattle, Bird is a legend but isn't nearly the offensive threat she was earlier in her career--she's much more reluctant to shoot or create. Chelsea Gray is far and away a better player than Bird at this point in time. Loyd is also not having a good season (38% FG), and Magbegor's production is significantly down since Charles has arrived. Seattle has essentially become a 3 person team offensively (Stewart/Loyd/Charles). [/QUOTE]
