To find the perfect NBA player for comparison to Brendan Callahan, we were looking for a couple key criteria:

1. The dude had to be able to shoot, and shoot it accurately from deep.

2. He had to go strong to the cup.

3. It would be an added bonus if the NBA player liked to take the occasional off-balanced, ill-advised shot.

Though he's struggling this year in L.A., Baron Davis has made a career out of doing those three things, and doing them well. When Boom steps between the lines, you know the first thing going through his head is how he's going to abuse his defender. He can out-muscle guys, he can blow past them with quick moves, he can step back and shoot high arching jumpers over them. 

Likewise, BC knows how to get in the lane. And when he does so, he goes with a full head of steam. He doesn't have the wide frame that Davis does, but Callahan is aggressive enough in the paint to make up for it. Plus, he isn't shy about stepping away from his defender and raining jumpers. It's his deadliest weapon, and it sets up the rest of his game.

Check out BC's numbers this year - they're top-notch. He's averaging 19 ppg (53.8% FG, 45.7% 3FG), 4.3 rpg, 3.1 apg. BD's numbers aren't quite that good this year, but over the course of his career, his 17 ppg (41% FG), 4 rpg, and 7.3 apg aren't all that much different.
