    Bass. He's got a better mid range shot, something that most players have to have to be effective in the league. Bass is a lot more athletic too... Davis is 6'9" and needs a running start to dunk.

    Both will need to get into better shape. Bass will have to put on a little weight and Big Baby will need to lose some. Big Baby is a hell of a talent right now and will only get better so I will go with Big Baby, more phyiscal and his game will only get better (if he has the coaching).

    i get the impression that big baby has a little more athleticism going for him, quick feet and good mobility for a man as wide as he is. not that bass isnt mobile. i think of bass as more of a bruising power force than a quick footed guy.

    i need to do alot more research.

    If you want martin, since you say you need to do more research... how about researching 4th Circuit rulings on the term "use" as it pertains to the use of firearms in drug trafficking offenses. Don't forget to shepardize the cases so that I know they havent been overruled... Ill even give you my Westlaw and Lexis passwords... :thumb:

    Sounds interesting. I am really glad I am out of school now. Good luck with whatever that research is required for.

    I think a very talented big guy like Davis will have the edge in the NBA, especially at first when he can use his assets to move people around in the paint. He should alwys be a pretty good off. rebounder. The diiference between Big Baby and some other recent "large" players is that Davis is much more talented than most of them, like a Tractor Traylor.

    Big Baby will be more like a tall Barkley and Truck Robinson.
