Barkley had a better TRB% than Davis too.
What exactly is Davis better than Barkley at except defense?

That's not nice brother. Don't speak bad about our voters. They are the reason we enjoy this thing.
I just vote, no need to give an opinion, too many hurt feelings (not talking about anyone specifically).
I'm amazed that I'm losing this matchup right now.
Even if I gave Harden the advantage over Pierce which is questionable at best, I still have a 3-2 advantage in starters.
My 6th and 7th best players are better than his starting SF.

Has anyone ever choked as hard in the playoffs as Harden?

Blake Griffin maybe. Harden has done nothing except put up a bunch of (admittedly great) high usage regular season stats. He should be a 6th man - not a starter.
By the way. . . love the writeup against One Love. Epic.
Bold. A perennial MVP contender who's taken his team deep into the playoffs...

He plays lazy on D. Nonetheless, when he tries, he's a passable defender, and a transcendent offensive player (top 10 EVER).
I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this matchup.
Apparently you suck at research if thats what you call research.
You do realize you just cherry picked his best year right? So based on that you are taking Barkely at 31 years old. Good to know, then Davis is much better than a 31 year old Barkley. Stats arent really close that year. Even more of a reason to take Davis then. Unless in this competition we get to mix and match their best stats from whatever year we want. Seems like that is what you are doing anyways.
Barkely is a career 26% shooter from three.
Barkley did shoot some threes and a few long 2s but the vast majority of his points were in the paint, around 50%. Davis has a much lower percentage of points in the paint.
This year Davis shot 28% inside 3 feet, 23% 3-10 feet, 17% 10-16 feet, 22.8% 16 to 3 point line and 8% from three. He shot 70% inside 3 feet (where over 50% of Barkley points came from), 45% 3-10, 46.7 10-16 feet and 41.4% from beyond. Those are much better shooting numbers than Barkley.
So again facts point to Davis already being a much better scorer and has a much better ability to space the floor from all around.
Davis is a better all around scorer, a better shooter and a better defender. Davis can also handle the ball and dribble better. Barkley might be a slightly better rebounder and he is a better passer.
