Anthony Drmic v Frank Drmic - who is better?

I played with Frank at Dandenong from u12s to u16s. As a junior he was unstoppable. Our top age U16s side went undefeated through entire state champ season and all tournaments. Although 7 out of 13 players in Vic Metro squad that year were from Dande.. So Frank had a fair support cast around him which made him better.
Playing mens bball though, Frank was not athletic enough for his size. A little slow for the 2/3 spot and a little small for 4/5 spot. More suited to Euro leagues, which is where he ended up spending most time. US Colleges had a look at him around 1992-93 but weren't impressed.
Anthony is a flat out gun. (He was a little baby when I was playing at Stud Rd Stadium) More athletic, more energy, better jump shot, and much quicker off the dribble. Could even play mins in NBA provided he keeps developing his game. At the very least, will be a star in NBL or starter in Euro League.

I remember being at U/18 Nationals in 1994 which was held in Canberra. We had an oppurtunity to tour the AIS with family members.
The whole Drimic clan was there and all I can remember was Frank's little brother who must of been Anthony dropping the F bomb non stop and none of the family could shut him up.
This has nothing to do with the debate but I'll never forget it.

In a way its very hard to compare the two. Anthony is so much more athletic than what frank was but I don't think he has that instinct that frank did. Having said that though frank could have that head explosion at any stage where as I feel anthony is more composed.
Anthony is more of a threat offensively than frank and with his long arms can gaurd small if he has too, but frank could play more with his back to the basket than what anthony is capable of at this stage of his career.
Like mention above, he should be a better player than frank, but how many times do we hear that about someone. Anthony destroyed teams early on at the 19 worlds, frank never had that impact.

Anthony certainly looks the goods, should be better than Frank. 'Should' being the point of stress.

The younger version IMO has a higher ceiling...
