Candice Parker vs. Skylar Mcbee (merged)

I graduated in 08, played on the practice squad for three years, guarded Candace a lot... McBee would win. The athletic gap between a top notch division 1 women's ball player and even a rag tag pickup former high school men's player is much, much more than you think...in the guy's favor. Please end this.

Based on my personal experience with both, I'd say there is no correlation between ability to make a basket and ability to throw a ball in a cup.

Skylar would win definitely. Skylar is every bit as athletic as Candace and just because he is a walk on does not mean anything. He played good minutes for us early in the year and helped us in some close games.Ilove Candace but girls and guys basketball just isnt the same.

Lets think about this. Candace parker could not in a million years stay in front of skylar mcbee. He is a division 1 guard and she is a post playing female. If she played of he would still get to the basket or shoot over her at will. When she has the ball( if they arent playing make it take it) she could never drive by him. She isnt strong enough to back him down. She would be reduced to a contested jump shooter. Not a prayer

Possibly the smartest post you've ever made

Okay this is like the dumbest argument ever but were just trying to make a point here, our suite mate for some unknown reason thinks that Candice Parker would lose to Skylar Mcbee if they played one on one. I mean I love Skylar to death, but lets be realistic, Candice would win. And I'm kind of sexist, but again I still say Candice Parker would definitely beat Skylar Mcbee one on one, who agrees, disagrees.

wow, you're an idiot if you really think Candice Parker would win any of those games.

Here's what would happen. She would have to play defense on his 3 pt shot and if she didn't, he would keep making them until it was over.... If she did, he would pump fake the 3 and drive right by her... she's not a perimeter defender against girls let alone against a dude.

Now Pearl vs CP, that's a better match up...

I will say this, if she got lucky, and had the ball first in a make-it, take-it scenario, it could happen. If her shot was draining, she could get a few quick shots off to take an early lead, then Skylar could get caught flying on a pump fake. If she's able to make a few cuts that gets her an open shot and is locked in, who knows?
All I'm saying is that it COULD happen, but Candace would have to get quite lucky and catch Skylar slacking hardcore.
