Elgin .. no question about that ...  by the way when I didn't watch some players I don't vote.. some should do the same  becoz results are sometimes laughable

I did watch both, and although I think Elgin was better, I gotta go with KG, because I think KG was the better PF. Elgin was the better player, but voting him over KG is like voting Magic over David Robinson at center. Yeah Magic played the position, but honestly, can you say he was a better player.

Elgin Baylor career rebound average: 13.5
Kevin Garnett career rebound average: 11.2

Just because Baylor was undersized doesn't mean he wasn't MUCH better...PeACe

KG, i always thought of Elgin as a SF

[Teddy Roosevelt]

I love KG, but I don' know how he got more nominations then Baylor. If he won a championship, then I could possibly put him ahead of Baylor.

Never noticed this, but what kind of name is "Elgin"?

Elgin Baylor was a SF/PF.

[Teddy Roosevelt]

KG also played SF for a couple years.

Elgin is a very rare name...It's a city in a Illinois. Dunno the meaning behind it.

baylor is just as tall as barkley , and barkley is arguably the 2nd or 3rd best PF in history

It's not size, its that Baylor mainly played SF.

his words
"When I came to professional basketball, I played the small forward and at times power forward. Playing against bigger people, it was a challenge to go out there in game and rebound," Baylor continued. "If you’re a scorer you love to score, but believe me I enjoyed rebounding more and going against bigger people than scoring."

Baylor was a high flying corner shooter. He played SF more often than PF, and KG was a PF who played SF early because he hadn't develop his physical game early, since he was a straight outta high school player. Nature great PF>great SF who played PF once in a while.

so is that

What's your point? Tim Duncan played center and at times power forward. Tracy McGrady played small forward and at times shooting guard. Ever heard of combo players? Elgin said it himself, he prefered playing the power forward spot, and his career numbers definitely back that up...
