Jefferson is by far better.

Hughes, like CC said, isnt what he once was (even if he was only that good for about 2-3yrs) I had high hopes for him since he was in Philly with AI. But he never "arrived" except with one 20PPG year in Golden St.

 

[Mexi]

who is Larry Hughes?
Jefferson gets ma'vote

 

[playmaker7]

Jefferson has time to get better and he's already carrying at team as it is...so Jefferson. Hughes is washed up

 

[.GR]

Jeffersons going to be one of the best bigs in the legaue

 

[ddog619]

Al Jeff easily, Hughes is garbage

 

[elcheato]

Larry Hughes is better. Al Jefferson put up staggering numbers on a HORRIBLE team. Lots of people can do that.. He was the only scoring option they had, and they had to force it into him.

Hughes was caught in a bad situation in Cleveland. He was forced to shoot jumpers, which is not his style of play. He is much more of a slasher and is about the only player who could not get better with the Cavs. LH could easily average 20 ppg with the Wolves as the #1 option. Larry is still one of the best perimeter defenders around, put him in the right system and he'd score his usual 20 points per game. He is now being considered horrible just because of being in Cleveland. He was never a spot up shooter and its what the Cavs tried to make him. He was an all-star in Washington because there really was no huge star when he was there. They had a good team with good talent and not one star who needed the ball a ton. Also, not to mention, Larry Hughes is more versatile. He can play Point Guard, Shooting Guard and Small Forward and can shut down almost any guard in the league. If he stayed in Washington he would still be a great player, I just feel bad for the guy, Cleveland really turned his career upside down.

I gotta go Al, Hughes has not done much for like the past 2 or 3 seasons it seems.

Big Al. More promising. Hughes lost it after he had that surgery a few years ago.

Im thinking, should I change the concept to favourite player instead of Better Player?
