I agree they're both great players, but that first stat did compare defense. Clark did an outstanding job guarding Justice, and he would guard the other teams best player everygame. When he quit the Panthers went eith 1-6 or 2-6, which i think really shows they needed him more than anyone thought. Justice is surronded by some much talent, it makes him look unbeleviable. Dont get me wrong because he is an outstanding player who will have an outstanding future, but I just think that considiring their situation and what they had to play with, Gatlin was the better player and more valuable to his team. But again i think both players are tremondous athletes and basketball players, and either one could win the MVP of the 15th region. Good Luck to both you men.

I have nothing against Clark but to compare him with Justice is not even a contest. In Justice you are talking about (arguably) the best player in the 15th region over the past two seasons and he still has two seasons to go. Clark started a lot of games last season and played well, but quit his team at crunch time. There is no comparison at this point. Maybe this time next year you might have an argument if he returns to Pikeville's team.
