Picket was better than king in his absolute prime, but King performed over a longer period of time. I guess it’s a case of if you rate longevity over higher quality in a smaller sample. As much as I loved Picket, I think King was better overall.
Similar to Mckernan in a way. He was in the top handful of players in the game from 95-99. But because he tailed off, he isn’t regarded as highly as others who performed at a high level for longer.
I agree with that actually.
Good post.
To me Pickett was an absolute gun at his best beyond King but no doubt King maintained for longer and fair enough.
McKernan short span also.
But at their top going into a GF tomorrow?
I'll take Choppy thanks.
