Better player right now: Whiteside or Gobert?

[Boris]

He is the better player right now, it's not really even all that close, he's also improved more then Rudy since last season..

I question how many Heat games people in this thread have even watched..

The only bigs above Whiteside in Win shares this season are DeAndre Jordan and LaMarcus Aldridge, and Whiteside's got both of them beat in Win Shares per 48 minutes..

My point is the Jazz would've already clinched the playoffs if Hassan and Rudy were swapped this season. Not saying he'd be a huge upgrade, he'd just be better.

Also some of Whiteside's rim protection #'s would obviously be better with Derrick Favors playing next to him..

OOH DAMN! PG_AB jest used NAOS you have not watched any NBA line against himself.

Rudy putting on 25 pounds would be a ****ing disaster and is an epically stupid idea.

Homie say wha???

I'd have to go with Gobert though the kid needs to work on hand strength stat. He gets stripped way tooo much in the low post.

If there's a stronger candidate than Whitesides to go full Larry Sanders (become completely unglued, completely lose interest in basketball once he gets his money), I'd be fascinated who it is.

Other than Larry sanders pending a comeback, there probably isn't really anyone. This is the main reason I pick gobert.

Secondarily Goberts passing has shown promise.
