He's also better with his left hand and driving to his left.

I can see that making him look quicker, as defenders can't set up to favor one hand or the other.

And, to me Ed seems better at finishing at the rim, not just drawing the foul. Plus I trust his jumper more. Not bashing Semaj by any means, but he had to be almost dared to shoot at times, though he made quite a few.

It's really hard to compare them too much, IMO. With the shooters this team has its likely easier for ED when he drives than Semaj when he did. Not saying ED isn't better or could be better but Semaj gets judged a little harshly because of the talent around him.

True, Semaj was often having to create on his own.

Ed is a much better shooter than Semaj will ever be. Ed can also hit free throws.....Semaj was maddening at the line.
I think Ed is much quicker. Mack confirmed that when he said Ed is the quickest player he's ever coached from baseline to baseline.

I don't think it's close. Ed will also play in the league. Semaj most likely will never play in the league.

No way. Nobody finished at the rim better than Semaj. However, Ed is just better, period.

Remember when we were concerned about the point guard position before the season began?!? Ha!

I had forgotten all about that but great point. Ed, Myles, and Larry are fantastic. And with Blu and JP, we handle every press confidently.
