Right before the NBA Draft I wrote a fun post called Put Your Draft ‘Eye’ to the Test. Basically giving you a limited description of two players and asking you to pick which one was the better prospect. Here are the results:
I cautioned everyone NOT to guess who the players because you would be wrong. That was a bit of reverse psychology trickery on my part knowing everyone would take that as a challenge and give their best shot. Well I think it’s time to unveil who the players are and show you exactly why I called it a “fun little test” and not to guess.
Player A is…
Player B is…
We have to say thanks for comparing us to the likes of D.J. Augustin, CDR, O.J. Mayo, Mario Chalmers, and Eric Gordon. Haha, I told you not to guess didn’t I!
By far my favorite part of this was, when Pete read the first commenter’s suggestion that he was Willie Green, his reaction was (jokingly) – “Now I have to kill myself!” Priceless.

Nice one, Dannie. When we were guessing, you said there was clearly a better player. Now you’ve told us who’s who, but you still didn’t say who the better player is, lol.
Those are our real measurements by the way.
I was hoping the vivid images of me above the rim and Pete below the rim would be a tell-tell sign of which is the better player. But considering I played ball in college and Pete did not we both agreed I was the better prospect.
Ha ha, nice description of yourself. As much as I would like to tear it apart and dog you, it’s actually pretty accurate.
…I knew it was some off the wall crap when you insisted we shouldn’t guess.
my picture is very deceiving. I’m still on my way up and i started that jump from the 3-point line.
i would like to thank dannie for not including “gets winded and needs an inhaler after running up and down the court 2-3 times”
still on the way up, yet you jumped from the 3 point line? somewhere, mr. pon is laughing at you. oh wait, you werent in that class. but you get the idea. physics say its impossible.
