There is obviously no perfect way to compare players of different positions who played in different eras for a different number of years with no instructions on how to compare them.  The whole thing is silly.

That said, people arguing that Jordan is so much better than Coleman that there is no comparison probably never saw either of them play in college.  I could make several arguments for DC, he played an extra year, has better counting stats in every category, was drafted higher, was arguably the greatest rebounder in college basketball history (Jordan was not elite like that in any one skill), kicked North Carolina's ass in the elite 8, etc.  But the truth is Jordan was a wing who played in the pre-3 point line era and Coleman was a big who played after the 3 points line was introduced so there is no good way to compare those two guys.  Both were great.

Make no mistake, this vote isn't about some mythical best player competition, its about which fan base is best ... now everyone go make a second twitter handle and push DC over the top, then we can have a real celebration when all 4 of the final 4 are SU guys.
